I have a Canon Powershot G3, with intervalometer capability. Does any body
know of any software that can
process the images into a single time-lapse photo? I know there is a film
camera offered at National Geographic called
the Super Sample Time-Lapse Camera.

Thanks in advance!

I think that there are Video editors that can take single images and make
them into a slideshow or a movie.

For that matter Irfanview can do a slideshow with very short times between
changes. How fast Irfanview can change images is largely dependent on the
speed of your computer.

To make a single image from multiple images can be done with a lot of work
in Photoshop or maybe Paint Shop Pro.

In Photoshop Elements 2.0 search for "Duplicating layers" in Help. No
quotes.

Your supplied Canon software, Remote Capture, can take the timelapse
photos... but not stitch them together - Canon PhotoStitch will do
panoramas fine. In your image editor of choice you can use much the
same technique as in the process of stitching:
