Hi,
Is it a panorama taken with Google Photo Sphere? If that’s the case, Photo Sphere Viewer will read XMP data in the file. These data are used to know the “real” size of the panorama (if it has been cropped, i.e. if you didn’t shoot the poles): it’s the only automatic way to produce the right black areas to retrieve a normal sphere.
If you resized the panorama, XMP data aren’t updated: the library will read false sizes and that can produce some errors.
I have an idea to guess when a picture is resized, so that we can recalculate the right data. I’ll try this and, if it works, it will be in the next version (you can expect it for next week I think).
In the meantime, maybe you don’t need XMP data. For instance, if your panorama covers the whole sphere, XMP data are totally useless, so you can ask to WP Photo Sphere to not read them with the attribute xmp set to no. If all your panoramas are concerned by this “no read XMP” thing, you can also disable this setting in the options page.
Finally, if your panoramas is cropped (the whole sphere is not covered), you can still use the attributes added in the latest version to define your own coordinates (full panorama size, cropped panorama size and coordinates) to fix the wrong XMP data.
Did I answer to your question, or did I misunderstand your problem?
Thanks for the answer.
It was for the full panorama, and it was only happening when I used attribute tags to make the displayed view larger.
Once I made the display view larger in the settings, I no longer had the disappearing picture issue.

Weird. Is it possible for you to give me the complete shortcode (with attribute) that caused the bug?
iirc
[sphere 42 width=”1024″ height=”768″]
Once I did that, even if I removed the width and height attributes, it still wouldnt display. I had to reupload the image to get it to work.
