Oh it is good to get an explanation. I didn't realize this was the  
display problem you had mentioned. I did make both small and  
fullscreen panos at 320x240 to be sure they were natively small enough.
In Firefox, when you drag the scrollbar on the page, does the pano  
draw? I find that the fullscreen draws if I resize the window. The  
zoom is quite annoying too.
