Got this today:

We're sorry, this download is no longer available.

That would be a pain. This app is actually one of the better MS products, free or otherwise. Anyone know what's going on?

I thought they stopped development on it years ago and so it makes sense they've eventually taken it down. It's unfortunate, but there are [paid]
alternatives. I expect they decided it wasn't aligned to their market.

You can still get it, just not off microsoft,

If you don't want to go digging, here is x32/x64 from when it was still available. Its on my cloud storage so if your digging this up after a year it might not be there anymore.

I use it for my structured terrestial panoramas, I'm trying to find some wide enough vista nearby to actually make a Gigapixel Image, currently my largest is only up to 986 Megapixel which I got the fine focus wrong on.., and not keen to cheat with more sky.

Fun and odd limitation. You can "only" save png files up to a max of 65535x65535 pixels in size. Guess i will need to shoot some more cloud.

My 2 from this weekend ended up being 6.7Gp, and 4.3Gp. But had to scale them down due to that weird limit. I might have to see if I can patch that.

On the flip side probably already as large as it practically needs to be
