Thanks a lot Caroling, Pau, Neil, Nurcan and all those who have been visiting my site. I know there is what some would call 'weird stuff' there, I would not call it 'art', but thanks a lot anyway.
About my working methods, I sometimes start with an equirectangular, then extract the cubefaces and other times I get the cube face as a starting point and then make a whole equirect.
I superpose equirectangulars too, as Carolings' keen eye has seen, the mesh in 'noesis' was melted into the 'traces' panorama. Duplicating layers is one of my major proceedings (the pano-greetings from 'Twice-Upon-A?Tyme' are basically done that way).
And yes, in these panoramas Quicktime performs best than any other stuff for me, and it allows extreme fov and tilt values the others don't. That helps constructing some wonderful visual toys if you play with extreme zoom in-out and swirling at the same time -rather dizzying and not convenient for epilectics, I must confess-
Thanks a lot again to all for your interest and sorry for delay (I'm very busy at school these days)
