	Yea, it worked fine.  It was a small mosaic, only 26 degress HFOV.

	That worked too!  I cut down the features to 8 instead of 100.  It found
features between all the images of each row, but no features between
different rows, so I didn't have to delete any control points.  All I
needed to do was add the control points between rows and it worked.

	Is the library that autopano uses capable of finding features between
images top/bottom?  Could autopano be expanded to find all the control
points for a mosaic?

	Thanks,
