Is SmugMug working on support for 360° images (aka photospheres)? I can post them to my Flickr account so someone in the company has access to the necessary code. :-)

    This feature would be useful. For the presentation of virtual tours, we have to use external applications and a blog, which again we have to run on a different platform than smugmug.

    Considering that Google photos supports interactive 360° panoramas for free, I would expect a paid site to support it as well. With so many people using Insta360 cameras these days for their travel and action photography, this seems like a needed feature.

    People have been asking for this support since forever. I would suggest another photo hosting site instead of SmugMug if you want 360's as part of your online portfolio.

    Yeah, I’ve been looking at Google photos which supports interactive 360 Panoramas, but there are additional problems with that. There are a few panorama specific sites as well, but that just means paying more money. I’m already paying enough to SmugMug, so I’d really hope that someday they implement this feature.

    Please add this feature to allow viewing of interactive 360° panorama images.

    I feel like Smugmug isn't keeping up with the latest photo trends: no support for 360, no support for HDR / AVIF / JPEG XL, etc. I'm having a hard time justifying paying so much when they're not improving and staying on top of the latest trends.
