We hope to help explain in detail the answers to common questions in a few key areas most often used by our customers.  Please use the contact form and we'll get back to you within 24 hours.

 1) Photographs:   When the photographs are finished, we email you a link/url to a compressed folder which contains your photographs.  Once you click this url/link

it will open into your web browser(Explorer, Safari, Firefox, Netscape, etc).  However, instead of opening a normal webpage your web browser will ask if you would like to save the file. The screen will also ask you where on your computer you would like to save the folder.  Save it to your desktop, documents or photographs folders as you wish and click SAVE.  The file will process/download to your computer for a couple of minutes - the more photos there are the longer it will take.  It could be as long as one hour for large jobs we've done with full size images.

 You can try it now if you'd like with our sample link:  Here.    Click the link and you will be asked to download a file. We've put three of our fine art images into a folder that you can download and uncompress.

Photographs are sent this way so you can easily save to your computer and use and upload them to the sites you'd like.  It also saves huge sized emails.  The photographs are sized for websites, email and all digital marketing.  We do maintain copies of the large original photos if you need them for print ads - we will send a seperate link for those that is extremely large.  If you prefer a CD or DVD of your photographs we are happy to do that for a $15 charge which includes, materials, shipping and handling.

2) Virtual Tours:   For 98% of our customers we send an email with a link to the virtual tour that is hosted on our website. The other 2% do their own final programming and we send just the stitched images or the flash or quicktime individual files for their webmaster to build.

 This is what a typical virtual tour link looks like:     http://www.maui360tours.com/resorts/MauiKai/301     the full url includes  "/index.html" at the end but is not needed these days. 

 This is the link (aka 'URL') for the virtual tour that you enter into your VRBO or HomeAway like websites or MLS/Paragon systems.   This is also the link that you can email to people or put into your email signature file.

For those building their own websites and wishing to incorporate the virtual tour into their own look and feel, we highly recommend embedding the virtual tour link above with a iframe command.  Below is a sample for you to work from.  Notice the width and height parameters - these can be modified to fit the virtual tour as you like.
