Here's a changed version.  Added the ion tail and smoothed out the dust
tail, even made the coma smaller.  It can't be perfect I don't think, only
better and better (or worse, depending).
Want to credit Constantine Thomas, Kari Kivisalo, and James Hastings-Trew.
I just now got the Earthpng.zip file at Constantine's site which I
previously posted a reply to Christoph Hormann about.  I believe I had been
using the maps from David Seal's site before: http://maps.jpl.nasa.gov/
