Aye, no reason to give up on it at all! Just give it some time and patience, and keep clicking... you'll get it "right" soon enough. Good luck, keep us posted? (Oh! I just checked my email andsaw your newer version. It is coming along much better! Might have to do some Skylab cloudwork, though, to get rid of the unsightly low-level fractal clouds...) Check out AlvinYlaya's cloud presets, they're a great starting point if you need some different cloud backgrounds...
