Well, I actually got it from a site called sillydude.com. Also, in the corner of the picture it says, "For more information, go to http://antwrp.gsfc.nasa.gov/apod/ap001127.html" Glad you like it!

The Gimp triumphs again! Are you using windows gimp or linux gimp? (its better on linux btw... and it doesn't work for me on XP... but thats easily solved by dual booting)

the nighttime sat photo is quite nice, and a good choice.. the sunburst seems very stock though, and a bit more work on it would make this really nice

Capn: Windows gimp--I'm not familar with Linux, and I'm quite happy with XP. I'd rather not replace it. Migellito: It is a stock sunburst. I used one of the render functions in the Gimp to produce it. I don't really know how to improve it. If you'd like, ensregis@aol.com me and give me your advice.

Actually, did you know that you can't see the stars around the earth when you're in space? The reflected sun off the earth (or, in this case, the sun itself shining behind the earth) blocks out the sun, just like the sun blocks out the stars during the day here on earth? I might consider that, actually.
Thanks so much for all your kind comments.

Oh, my last comment was supposed to have little "geek" tags around most of the first paragraph.
Thanks Alger!
Thanks Alger!
