Planet Maker in a Browser

Ok, this is very cool: http://planetmaker.wthr.us. It's a browser-based planet creator and real-time renderer. I was able to upload my Regina base map, specular map, bump map, and apply it to the planet. I am tempted to upload the homeworld maps and render them here, but I will probably stick with Celestia.

On an unrelated note, manually creating nightside lights using the sparks brush in the Gimp takes about an hour per map to properly do them. For the purposes of the homeworld comparison doc I'm working on, I think I'll skip them til after they're done. :P
