1. A method comprising:
receiving a request to wrap an image onto a cylindrical surface;
generating a set of adjacent warping patches, the set of adjacent warping patches including a first zero-width patch corresponding to a left edge of the image and a second zero-width patch corresponding to a right edge of the image;
determining a silhouette edge of the cylindrical surface; and
mapping the image to the set of adjacent warping patches, wherein portions of the image that are obscured by the silhouette edge are mapped to the first or second zero-width patches.
