I need to do virtual tours of some night clubs. What freeware is best for this?

I don't know of any freeware for virtual tours... the two software packages I've seen used are iPix and QuickTimeVR. Neither one is particularly cheap.
The "free" alternative that comes to mind is a slide show type format... which is hardly the same thing.

I once used the demo version of "Ulead 360" is is pretty cool. You take 12 static photos in a circular motion and then merge them together to make a 360 view all the way round, YOur user can then use the mouse to look round the scene, almost as if they are there and turning their head. Fairly easy to use and looks very profesional if done properly. Just make sure you spend a bit of time getting the merge stage done as good as possible. If it goes well at this stage then you are onto a winner.
