360° Panorama Software Recommendations?

So, I'm looking for some panorama software—or maybe just a solid tutorial—on how to create a true 360° view. I want it to feel like you're standing right in the center of a sphere, where moving the mouse left or right lets you scan the horizon, and tilting up or down shows the sky or the ground. Just to be clear—I can already pull off those basic 360° views, but they lack that vertical look, if you know what I mean. If anyone knows what I'm after, I'd really appreciate the help. 🙂

Something like this:

Thanks! 😁

Something resembling Microsoft Windows 11 LINK

Yeah, but is there anything actually free? This one keeps leaving its logo and a watermark all over my work 😁

Anyone there?

Look, if you think just slapping two images together is going to give you that specific result, you're dreaming; you really only have two paths here, one being the easy route which I've dropped right here: http://www.0-360.com/, which is basically the exact little tool you're looking for, and then there's the second option:

It’s a total headache, honestly—you’d need a lot of patience to handle the precise layering of photos within Flash, but I have to tell you again, you won't replicate what was in that first link of yours because, from what I can tell, that look comes from something similar to what's in my link😁 captured on camera.

It takes a lot of patience, and you'll need some really precise photo layering within Flash. But I should probably mention again—you won't get that exact look from your first link, because it looks like they used something more like my link to take those 😁 shots.

Look, before making claims like that, it might be a good idea to do a little homework first 🙄. Here's a link that might help...

That’s a fantastic read 🙂👍

Fair enough, I definitely missed the mark on that one🤷

Well, there you go. Even when you mean well, things can still go sideways. I guess if you just own up to it, people are usually pretty forgiving about it 🙂
