Hardware and how to take the photos!

[ceeby]

Hi everyone...

Just dloaded FPP and love it so far. Now my task is to master taking the photos with a regular digital camera. Can that be done?
Then what software is good (Photoshop?) to get the photos just right for stitching? And what software to go with for stitching or does that even need to be done? I just need some help on getting started from the beginning (taking photos and hardware). I haven't seen any tutorials on this. Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks!
