Just learned how to do atmospheres and the surface of planets.... and yes I
cheated a little.. made atmosphere more artistic than real.... but well....
still working on it....

I like the first two a lot. The third looks good but strange, as every
earlier picture I've seen of that planet (Jupiter?) didn't have a bright
glow around it.

I also like the first two. But Jupiter looks strange. I think tahts
because Jupiter hasn't a atmosphere, moreover Jupiter is out of
atmosphere ;-)

Jupiter does have an atmosphere, in fact, it's all you see. It's a REALY thick one,
loaded with
clouds biger than the earth to a deepth you can't realy conceive: >100 times earth
diameter deep!
In the Jupiter view, the "atmosphere" shown would be deeper than the earth is whide.

Bjorn Jonsson's planetary renderings site is worth more than a second
glance.
There are some really good images and rendering of planets with atmosphere
at http://www.mmedia.is/~bjj/
The jupiter images at http://www.mmedia.is/~bjj/3dtest/jup_atmos.jpg are
illuminating - very subtle bluish tinge on the illuminated edge.
A bunch more are at http://www.mmedia.is/~bjj/jupsys_rend.html

Please review your references. Earth's diameter is 12,756 km, and Jupiter's
is 142,984 km. That leaves only 5.6 Earths to the center.
More realistically, the Great Red Spot is 2.5 to 3 Earths across.
