_– Please embed them ([How-to guide](https://greyarro.ws/t/interactive-360-panoramas-how-to/1247) (please ask for help if you get stuck))_

- 360° panos taken using Hangar360 _([Example](https://greyarro.ws/t/hangar-360-snowy-panorama/1585))_

The winner will be the person who’s Pano is judged (by the [Grey Arrows Drone Club Committee](https://greyarro.ws/badges/132/squadron-leader)) to be the best.

That was exactly the problem - it wasn’t pasting what I was copying - hopped it through notepad - an Ta Daa!

# Using Kuula for your 360??

Take a look at the How-to notes here …

> [@Interactive 360 Panoramas - How To Post on GADC](https://greyarro.ws/t/interactive-360-panoramas-how-to/1247):
>
> It’s now possible to create 360 panoramas in the DJI Go4/Fly apps - although the resolution of these can vary. You can post these panoramas in the forum to be viewed interactively by following these instructions. It’s also possible to create your own higher resolution equirectangular panoramas in other stitching software such as PTGui, Hugin, AutoPano Giga, Microsoft ICE, to name a few. (See [How to create high resolution 360 Panoramics](https://greyarro.ws/t/how-to-create-high-resolution-360-panoramics/39798)) Image Dimensions A complete “360 sphere” requires an im…

And I’ll repeat this bit …..

# **Note** :

- For whatever reason, sometimes, when the HTML is highlighted by dragging the mouse over it (or selected by highlighting on a mobile device), the pasted HTML has **`<iframe`** and **`/iframe>`** modified to **`&lt;iframe`** and **`/iframe&gt;`**. So these need to be edited.

- Double-clicking a mouse on the HTML to highlight it avoids this - but ads a " ’ " at the beginning and end that need deleting.

- Ensure that the opening “\<” starts a new line without any spaces in front.

We don’t have a badge for a **_Night-time Pano_** … if there was one, you would have been the first person to get it. I’m pretty sure yours are the first. Congrats for that!

Many thanks 👍 , if there’s **any** merit in these shots - it’s 95% down to the M2 and 4% luck and 1% down to putting hand warmers inside my fingerless gloves 😉
