Re: Animated sketch [Re: frank5817]       #3387045 - 10/13/09 11:58 AM Edit   Reply   Quote Quick Reply   Jay, Thank you for the animation on what Jupiter (or any planet) would like like when viewing under poor seeing conditions. Your skills in animation are very helpful to us all. Is it possible to make the animation a little bigger? It looks small on my my screen, but I can still enjoy the animation.

It didn't look right larger as the sketch didn't have the detail needed to make it look somewhat realistic. - j -------------------- Fight indignorance!
