Use Hugin.  It's powerful and offers a a simple mode that just works as long as your input images are of good quality.

what is the best photo stitching program. My search revealed many and I
was interested in stitchpanorama but I could not find instructions on
how to install a plugin and I want to hear some opinions on good ones.

I was hoping to find one that would stitch on both axis. (both x and y)
The reason I want to be able to stitch both axes  is so I would be able
to mimic a wide angle lens.

Could I use convert for this purpose too?

        Take a look at the command "mogrify".  It's a command that comes
        with imagmagic (convert) and generally takes the same options as
        convert, but it made to do bulk converstion, so that you don't
        need to have a for loop around your command.
        Just be aware that it will usually replace your images with the
        converted versions, so make sure you test things out on backups.

                    Is there a way to scale a bunch of pictures down to

                    with GIMP?


            Probably, but it'd be a lot more of a pain to do that than
            to do what
            sean suggested.

                Use ImageMagick instead - it's designed for this and is

            To expand on what sean wrote:

            for FILE in *.jpg ; do
                 NEWFILE=`echo "$FILE" | sed -e 's/.jpg$/_resized.jpg/'`
                 convert "$FILE" -resize 50% "$NEWFILE"
                 done

            ...will take all the .jpg files in the current dir and write
            out new
            files named (original filename)_resized.jpg which have their
            X and Y
            dimensions reduced by 50%.  The original files will still be
            there.  The
            geometry specification in ImageMagick is powerful, so it's more
            complicated than you may expect.

            for all the things you can do with it.
