ah yes, I remember... is that planetary mission available for download somewhere?

Tolwyn’s reputation for risk taking with other people’s lives was considered  to understate the facts. The admiral’s willingness to sacrifice anyone or anything to achieve his objectives had long been lauded in the popular press. He was “the man who got things done”.- Colonel Blair

No errors, no random CTDs, just pure fun and proof of why getting hit with missiles is a bad thing.

I like it a lot...always loved star photos:)

I remember I  had a shot of this one http://antwrp.gsfc.nasa.gov/apod/ap950724.html in higher resolution, but I can't find it:(
(edit: I found this, thought it is probably too small http://www.guidescope.net/galaxies/andromeda.htm?large )
I also remember a couple of nice giant images of cygnus' veil nebula wich were really cool, if I find em I'll post it

http://www.koyote.com/users/bobm/M42nebulosity.htm (this is wonderful)
http://www.koyote.com/users/bobm/m31.htm and http://www.af9y.com/m31.htm (better image of andromeda)

It's not so much your images Bobb, it's the way the Bitmaps are used, they are mirrored on both hemispheres, so having the same galaxy above and below you would look a bit odd. That, however is a beautiful picture and should certainly be made available as the first full-colour background decoration ;) One question Bobb, would your Shockwave.pof be able to use multiple textures as well?
