First thing you need is a program for taking screen shots.
I am using Paint Shop Pro 7 (PSP7)
Setup PPS7 Captue Setup
Have it set to capture:

Full Screen
Delay Timer 3 Sec
Multiple Captures

Now press Capture now, and go back to walking around in UO.
Every 3 secs you will here a Ding sound, this is PSP 7 taking a screen shot.
Once you are done walking around. Goto a safe place to hang out. IE: House, Bank.

Next bring up PSP7 and stop it from taking pics.
Save your pics out as BMP, JPG, or GIF

Next edit those photos.
Crop them just to have the game screen.

Once done go to the link below and install this program.
Windows Live Photo Gallery
http://download.live.com/photogallery?wa=wsignin1.0

Once installed bring up the program called:
Windows Live Photo Gallery

To make a fully sticted photo follow these instructions.
Goto File
Include a Folder in the Gallery
Browse to your pic folder.

Once added choose your photo's that have the same common image in them.

Next goto Make
And choose
Create Panaramic Photo
Save your photo.
And you are done.

A nice image put together.
No more copy and pasting images together.

Added Photo In.

Maybe you could post an example screenshot of this so we can see how it works?

Wow that is amazing. If you get a program such as infranview to just save the game screen, then you can cut out the time consuming cropping part. I'm going to have to go test this out.

You could also just use the dreaded "full screen" mode too for UO. Some people actually use that still.

Since we are talking about photo editing, how do you take a large photo and break it up into smaller photos? For example, a landscape sunset shot and breaking it into 3 separate ones for printing.

Cool, Someone needs to make a ‘Google Earth’ program for UO.

I have actually been wondering if the Kingdom Reborn zoom out limit was disabled, would it be possible to just keep zooming out until you see huge areas of land. In one of the early town hall demos that limit didn't exist and it was zoomed out pretty far.

Nice. I guess in theory you could map all of UO this way, then break it up into 8.5 x 11 tiles and print them off and make a giant mural of your shard.

That is true with paint.
But doing that image only took me 2min.
How long would it take you with paint...
Maybe 20-30 min..
