I have written a small (?) tutorial on how to create a planet with
high-resolution maps, image-maps, bump-maps and spherical heightfields.

Since there may be more tutorials at some point, I would of course be interested
in your opinion. It's useless if no one understands it or wants to read it.

Too short, too long, too much text, too many details, incomprehensible, errors
inside, whatever.

I guess I've told too much. Unfortunately, I kept coming up with more and more
text.

Greeting Martin
