This is an Earth scene I made and textured in blender (idea from andrew price)
Really I favor cycles but the way he light worked in BI made the scene look alot better
wow, when I tried uploading a similar scene, BlendSwap denied it because they "had too many of these" I swear, whoever runs Blendswap has some issues.
Honestly Im not sure why they arent showing up. Are you rendering it in BI
I would like to note that this was rendered in the blender internal rendering system. Not cycles.
