(EDIT: Watch my second take here share.gigapan.org/viewGigapan.php?id=29579)
My first ever Gigapan, actually just a test. And a new camera to do it with, a Nikon D90. And guess what I did ... yes, I forgot to switch the whitebalance back to normal after having taken pictures at an indoor swimming pool yesterday. I did notice that after the first run, so I tried again. But at the same time I switched lenses to a tele. And there I made a newbie mistake, I forgot to adjust the field of view setting.So those pictures have too many gaps to be stiched. The weather was good, sunny and dry, but unfortunately no blue sky.
All reasons for trying again in the near future. So watch out for more.
PS If you are a gigapan maker too, near me, get in contact so we can team up. What about a stereaoscopic gigapan, hmmm ?

You are right. New camera ... I set it to P mode, but then locked the exposure with the AE-L option. That must have dropped somewhere. Next time I'll set it to full manual. Thanks

The stitcher notes show that you had the camera on autoexposure. You'd get better results (in the sky, particularly) if you locked the exposure time and aperture, probably.
