Really we need to have the facility to add seasonal textures in Celestia...

Not trying to go off topic, but I find it irritating that Cosmographia's getting all this cool stuff Celestia needs but of course will never have. Anyway, about the Uranus texture, I like it. Feels much more real, IMO than the default Uranus texture.

Nice looking map John. Have you considered updating it using new images from Keck II? I know they are near infrared images, and Uranus is pale blue/green, and featureless to the naked eye, but i figure an "alt surface" using the near infrared would be awesome.
