you'd need the sun and big purple thingy in a clear view (without clouds in the way) so u can snag pictures of them, also need to snag a picture of a few clouds, then u should be able to do it. Just need to make a nice sky dome image (not sure how, something about wrapping the image in a wierd warpy ball) and add the sun/planet as sprites and set the clouds as the sky texturename

[Shadow Knight]

That is possible to make, if you had the original source images that were put into that.
(insert what GBD said here)

I am afride I do not have the originlal images, They are pictures downloaded from the internet and look soo nice I would like to try and recreate the sky, I did made some nice sky but there are some pics I want to recreate in BZ.

Just thought I would give you all some fun in trying to make it

I'd have trouble creating the dome, but the sky sprites can be cropped out of that one pretty easily.

I have a snazzy little (big) planet for use if anyone wants it. This will need some clear creditation if you do use it though, it took me longer to make than other assets of BZ2 and the like.

make more

but not quite SO big...i dont know how BZ2 likes things like that (IT DOESNT)

[Steeveeo]

Its called making things in full quality THEN sizing them properly, otherwise you get pixelly crap when you try to size it right.

nice pic - are you obsessed with planets now? 

[Steeveeo]

Same planet that was in that surreal dreamscape work I did, just isolated. (Notice that big river/gouge thing on the northern hemisphere)

[bigbadbogie]

while we're on the subject== my first attempt at a planet - a bit barren but would look ok for a moon

Nice! It would be easy to make a planet out of this by using an overlay.

Steeveo's pic looks very good in-game.

Question, though.  How do you prevent sprites from stretching near the horizon?
