Epic Photography

What's the best app/program to upload pics from my phone? I've been uploading my pics to my Picasa account but the pictures do not look very good. Does Picasa alter the pictures somehow?
 
From the 15th floor of the building I work in, you can still see how bad the dome is...

Panoramas??

Back on topic, here's a quick panoramic shot from my Epic earlier today. Hope tapatalk attach works...

I didn't know the phone was capable of shooting panoramas. I just looked for that setting but can't find it. Can you explain how to get into that mode?

EDIT: Found it! I should know better than to ask a question before Googling... I think I'll be using this feature a lot.
