FQM Starmap Search

[Fyron]

Looking for a new starmap.bmp image for FQM Deluxe... I like the concept of the current one, but it is a big odd looking at higher gamma settings. the people I have asked to help me fix it up have not helped... http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon9.gif So... I put out a challenge to you: what is the best image for a new starmap (system background) you can find/make/whatever? If you need to upload it somewhere, you can use the SE.net Image Gallery.

Oh, and please no submissions of galaxy pictures. They look really odd when you see them in every single system... it needs to just be a generic background.

I made one, but because of limited bandwidth I'd rather not post it... want me to email it to you? I also made a matching black hole! http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon10.gif

Use the one in Invasion!, it makes the planets very easy to see and I like it.

The Invasion one is even more bland than the stock file. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon9.gif

I made you some good ones a while ago when I first mentioned the problem with the MOO2 background. What did you do with those?

[Fyron]

Didn't really like them...

That was the first thing I did with them. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/tongue.gif
