lucky760says...*findthumb
siftbotsays...A different thumbnail image for this video could not be found for findthumb request by lucky760.
poolcleanersays...Oh god, this is a really bad commercial. I did not feel any of the intensity of the original.
westysays...Windows live photogalery , for people to thick to download "thegimp" or get photo shop,
of course if wlphotogalery is good then thats cool , but if its annything like windows movi maker then its an epic fail, windows movi maker has just got progresavely worse .
castlessays...I hope they gave Paul Vasquez a million dollars.
cybrbeastsays...Wow, he can't act for shit. That was not convincing. Should have dubbed the original voice over.
Jinxsays...We have witnessed the birth and death of a meme. Goodbye double rainbow, your time was all too short but...so intense.
mgittlesays...Microsoft's timing is perfect, though. All the retards...the "late adopters" of the meme, are just now having their kids or "hip" friends finally show them the original video. These people are the only ones who would possibly be impressed by Photo Stitch or this commercial, so really, it's pretty perfect.
The rest of us would've been unimpressed and cynical either way =P
ravermansays......needed more drugs.
dotdudesays...Skittles should have done something with him.
Sericsays...>> ^Jinx:

Aww maaaan....I've still got a parody in my personal queue :<
In other news, this is *terrible *comedy
siftbotsays...Adding video to channels (Comedy, Terrible) - requested by Seric.

rgroom1says...At least they're trying to be funny.

Microsoft has good automatic panorama construction tools, because they have some of the best minds in computer vision and computer graphics in their interactive visual media research group:
http://research.microsoft.com/en-us/groups/interactivevisualmedia/
Panorama stitching is only trivial if
1) The scene is completely static.
2) The optical center of the camera doesn't translate.
3) The intrinsic camera parameters (focal length, exposure time, flash) don't change
4) The scene has sufficient texture to recover the relative transformations between the images.
5) The camera has no vignetting or barrel distortion.
6) There are no gaps between the captured images.
Typically (and in this scenario) few of these constraints are satisfied so you actually end up with a computer-vision-hard problem. You could have duplicate objects that have shifted position between image captures. You could have the sun come out from behind a cloud between the first and last photograph. You could have the camera translate (as it always will when being hand held, unless you're shooting something really far away in which the translation won't matter, but even in this case it might matter for the foreground).
But sure, go ahead and fire up gimp and show me how it handles all of this automatically.

as i said if its good fair enoughf , but bassing things on , other windows free programs its likely to be shit.
shagen454says...this is sacrilege. however, if he is now able to buy a fresh batch of double-dipped hits - i'm all for it.
shponglefansays...Dear Microsoft,
You *can* take a photo of a complete rainbow. It's called a fisheye lens. Look it up.
Signed,
The Internet
Xaxsays...This is actually not bad for a Microsoft commercial. All those stupid fucking "Windows 7 was my idea" and "I'm a PC" commercials suck fat cock.
bamdrewsays...BLASPHEMY!!!
The second rainbow of a double rainbow should have the colors INVERTED, red to blue!!!
ITS WHY THEY'RE SO FULL-ON ALL-THE-WAY!!!
Mi1lersays...they should have got the goatse guy, now you can capture it all in 3 photos!!!!
