Re: Latest high-res Jupiter Map

"Accuracy" on a gas giant that is dynamic, and constantly changing is virtually non existant. Boux your texture is a very nice effort, but i do agree that it is too high contrast for my taste.

Re: An FAQ on DDS files for Windows users

Thank you for the quick reply. I didnt think about hardware resolution limitations. That indeed explains alot. Also how do most of the artist here create 16k+ textures if hardware doesnt support it?

Re: Saturn(ish) higher resolution map (warning: big graphic)

This is some excelent work. Im new to Celestia, and these forums, and i must say all of the artist here are doing some amazing things. To comment on the "Blue hat". It seems to be only a seasonal thing on Saturn. When Voyager flew by Saturn was in its northern "fall" season, and the rings were almos...
