You guys rock!!

Post #1by The Singing Badger » 18.12.2003, 23:33

I just discovered Celestia by accident. I've been playing around with Starry Night for a few years, and it's cool, but Celestia is outstanding - its graphics are way better and the fact that it's free is simply flabbergasting! I'm a complete computer novice, so I just wanted to say to the designers of the program and all those who've created add-ons that YOU ROCK!!! :D
