Create panoramic photos and more at MagToo
Sites like Flickr and Photobucket already have services that let you build slide shows, MagToo takes it a step further by also letting you create great panoramic shots to share with others.
Creating a panoramic image does require some thought before you start uploading. In order to get a quality panoramic image, MagToo recommends that your photos overlap by at least 20-50% and that you try to keep the camera level as possible.

WLPG seems to do a more better seamless photo-stitching than what MagToo does. I don't think it even requires 20-50% of a picture to do the job. It's also not browser dependent either.
