A panorama is only as good as its worst seam. Paint on the sphere rather than the flat equirectangular map, so the wrap point disappears and the poles stop pinching. Export it back out and drop it into your engine as a skybox. Painting a skybox directly on the sphere may well be a first for 3D painting. What matters is that the seam you used to spend an hour hiding simply stops existing. Drag the slider above to see the difference.
