Does anybody know where I can get some great texture maps for the sun and moon? Cartoonish is okay.

No, the didn't have any maps of the sun right now, and they don't have any of the moon!

For some reason they put the Moon maps under the Earth section. And you would have thought after the recent eclipse they would have the Sun by now... ho hum

Just a thought, they did land there didn't they? Disgraceful.

Yeah, I got the moon map that I needed, all I need now is a sun map. Thanks.

Tried a yahoo search on "sunspots" and got a pretty large photo here: http://zebu.uoregon.edu/~soper/Sun/sunspots.html
