Well, I understand about the clouds, but with the help of PSP X, and that enhancement feature, I was able to make them look a little more realistic than MS Paint was able to make them (after using the spray paint tool in MS Paint, then turning them into more cotton ball consistency in PSP, guess that color balance must've made them more sepia, but that's the way Corel programmed it, I guess). Also, the ground below, I wanted to make it look a little desert-like, like you were really in the Middle East. To me, designing a desert fighter seemed to be a little easier than a WWII fighter. There's too many WWII games out there, I felt that having a flight game with a more current theme would probably change the trend of war gaming.
