I'm dedicating this thread to any stitches, collages, panoramas etc. There are differences between all, and there are even different types of each too.
Panoramas
Pretty much all of you will know already what this is. A panorama will generally look like a very wide angle photo, although I have seen variations to create 360 degree style photos. These can be created using 1 photo (most likely using a very wide angle lens), but a lot will in fact consist of multiple photos merged together.
I don't have any samples myself, but >here's a flickr group< with loads.
Collages
Most people should know what Collages are too. They are multiple random or planned photos used together to make another image or design. The underlying photos don't have to have any relation to the resulting image/design, but on the other hand they can. Sometimes it might not represent anything else, but will just be a really nice collection of images that work well together and maybe form a shape or random kind of design. Different types of collages are:
There may be more I'm missing, but that's the general jist. If you google it (http://alturl.com/vsvdk) you'll see many different types of collages.
Stitches
Not sure how many of you know what these are, but I reckon there's a good few that should. Stitches could be described as a mix of all of the above. Effectively you create 1 big picture by "stitching" together smaller parts of the picture. So you don't need a very wide lens you just use what ever you have and stitch the bits together. I've seen both neat and messy stitches so go crazy.
If anyone wants to join in please do. Otherwise I'll just try to keep it going myself! To kick it off I'll add a stitch myself so you see what these look like:

Sometimes it might not represent anything else, but will just be a really nice collection of images that work well together and maybe form a shape or random kind of design. Different types of collages are:
- Random photos together making a larger image
- Parts of random images used to make another image
- Multiple photos just mashed together as part of 1 collection
