What's a "skybox" and why are they having so much trouble with it?

The skybox is a 3d cube with a sky wallpaper on it. It makes it look like you can see far into the distance instead of that boring fog/darkness that makes it look like you are inside a steamy sauna.

And it's working fine now.

Dominions 2 has a skybox too, so it's nothing new.

Hmm, sorry, don't take that literally. It's not entirely true.
