The visual imagery of Orbiter can be really amazing. I've just seen some beautiful new screen shots by various users over at the Orbiter forum (check this post), and I also took a look at a new screen shot gallery web site, Mercury to Mimas. "SilvaHeed" already has a number of great shots there, and I really like the organizational approach of showing a series of labeled pictures from a mission to Mercury, Mars, or the Moon. Even a simple "storyline" can give a sense of purpose, place and time sequence. My own Flickr site exists mainly to illustrate this blog and is more random than this (though I usually post a few related pictures at a time). My gallery has grown to some 150 images to date (sample above is Station V from the film 2001: A Space Odyssey, part of the great World of 2001 add-on for Orbiter). Flickr is free and automatically stores pictures in multiple sizes so it's easy to set up your own gallery.
