That image that you have is basically fine … but it’s not 2:1 ratio … width to height.
Drop it into Photoshop, or similar, increase the canvas size to add enough space at the top to create the 2:1 ratio, fill the additional space with what ever (clouds, grey sky, blue sky) and then save and upload.
Thanks but maybe @OzoneVibe has found the problem. I’ve put the photos online if it’s still worth a look.
Learning a lot about Panos tonight and looks like I need better image software.
Shared from OneDrive which the forum doesn’t like so had to spell out the bit it objects to.

It said it was going to take 22 from the start and it took 22. Need to get out again to play when Dudley and Eunice have left.
If you look at the latest version of the test pano, it’s corrected so it’s a 2:1 ratio at the moment with just transparency added using Gimp. I see the point about missing images but ICE auto-cropped it.
Strange that ICE isn’t competing the sky for me.
But - that looks OK now it 2:1. 
Looks like Dave beat me to it, glad it got sorted
I get the same then auto-complete trims it.
Thanks both @OzoneVibe and @milkmanchris for your replies
Hmmm - but that means it’s only making up what’s not there.
For what ever reason, the 22 images don’t seem to be a complete 360 pano.
I’ll be out again playing with both auto and manual settings to see if I can repeat this 22 photo scene.
In the meantime, I notice Panoee have fixed the View Control setting so I can stop viewers seeing the hacked sky I copied/pasted including visible seams 
That Panoee feature was there some time ago … when we were first playing with it.
The one issue with ICE is there being no manual intervention. It’s 100% ok 95% of the time.
It broke recently, keying in -20 produced an error saying it had to be between 90 & -90. Don’t remember them saying they’d fixed it but they have.
You missed their very rapid reply to you, then. 
So quick I did miss it, they’re good!
So I’ve been checking the settings. Autopano asks 1 question, start? The settings option showed 8 columns 4 rows, 28 photos which didn’t sit well in my head. Add 1 nadir and it still said 28.
Playing with the angle, I found that at a certain angle, the maths worked out, 8 x 4 = 32 photos. Change nadir from 0 to 1, drops to 23 photos. Increasing the angle reduces the number of photos.
I’m assuming the number of photos is a combination of the angle, camera, rows, columns and nadir.
Looking forward to going out and taking lots of panos with different settings!
Autopano? Or did you mean Litchi?
Litchi’s globe icon in Pano mode is an automatic Pano option, the one that produced 22 photos which I suspect could be 7 X 3 Pano + 1 nadir.
