after answering simple enough's posting re curved text I as normal went off along paths that these questions pose. Four hours later I came up with this image of Saturn produced in Xara3D.
I'm afraid its quite a large image...sorry about that

Admittedly, I don't usually think of Saturn as orange, but then I wouldn't have thought of using X3D to depict it either. [img]/infopop/emoticons/icon_smile.gif[/img]
Good work, Egg.
Actually, I think it's a brilliant pic and not an application I would immediately have thought of for X3D - nice one.
However, if I were to be picky, I would have to be surprised that good ole Saturn revoles so much on its own axis.
But I'm not picky and think you've done a fine job there. [img]/infopop/emoticons/icon_wink.gif[/img]
okay your right Big Frank. I could try to excuse it by saying it's a simulation from a very rapidly moving Saturn orbiting satelite, but then that would'nt acount for the fixed star field.
My only real excuse is that the Saturn day = 0.436 (Earth days) and I would'nt expect you to sit and watch any animation for nearly 11 hours.

If I remember my days at school, that is a planet called Bramhall. Way out there in the other galaxy. Looks great, haven't been there in some time but it sure brings back the memories.
As Pogo Possum used to say (where is Walt Kelly when we need him) "It fair do boggle the mind!"
