ill be honnest.. i really dont care if u give me the credit for making it or not. its not mine. i acturally got it off a free game called orbiter.
-Orbiter-its really cool. but it takes a while to memorize all the keys. in the folder you install it in, theres a keyboard layout.
so anyway i got this custom model from one of the links on there. and it looked awsome to have a airplane in space so i shot a few snaps of it, got rid of the data things in the top right and left corners, and wala. if u want i could cut out the airplanes and if u give me ur earth pic i could slap em on there. but i think image number... 3, 4, and 5 are good quality. because the farther you get away from earth in the game, the better res u get for the planet.
ADDITION:
here are some more images i took for the game a while ago to practice drawing from. these are unaltered, raw data from the game. except the one on the moon landing pad.
-edit... sorry im missing 2. something went wrong converting em. ill have em ina sec...
-edit... there we go. the last 2 are up. enjoy
-edit... also i just thought some something else. some of the more slower internet connections when they load the image they drop colors. i know this because when i accses this page from school, they're internet is pritty slow, and the images on the top of the page, (the earth was fine) but they looked like 128 color GIF's pics.
-edit... for those of you who think on image #4, it looks like there are stars on the earth, but those are acturally bodies of water reflecting light.
