These look very nice, but I have a question...
Why do some people use sky spheres/domes and others use sky boxes? I guess I should know the answer to this but I've never had the need to use either. :)

I would have thought you'd know Big10! ;)
From my experience: Spheres/Domes are much easier to implement, but lack the quality and resolution that can be achieved with a box. So it's a case of quick & easy versus more tedius but verry effective.
I've always used SkySPheres in the past, but I've just recently changed these to SkyBoxes for Galactic Allegiance and the improvement is astounding. If you're really going for a sense of scale, I'd recommend boxes. If you just want a generic background then spheres/domes might just do!
