Chapter 7                                  Making a virtual tour

A virtual tour is a set of web pages that contain panoramas, ordinary images and narration.  The web pages are linked together with hotspots (hyperlinks embedded in panoramas and other images).  A virtual tour may also include a web page that shows small thumbnail images used as an index to the web pages comprising the tour.
