:That definitely looks better and in line with what I was suggesting. I may make the font for the others a little brightest (you can also use their bayer designation letter or number instead of full name for the other stars, while retaining the full name for the star in focus). What program are you using and how do you like it? I have thought on Winstar 2, curious how that looks. I have Stellarium, which is an excellent program for use in observations but not sure how well it is in making maps. --[[User:BMcP|BMcP]] 13:23, 3 December 2009 (EST)

::I have the Microsoft WorldWide Telescope [http://www.freewarefiles.com/Microsoft-WorldWide-Telescope_program_41720.html], which has a combination of photos and vector graphics. For making the star maps that are needed here, all that matters is to hit the "print screen" key on the keyboard, paste it within Microsoft Paint or PhotoShop, and adjust accordingly [[User:Karajou|Karajou]] 15:47, 3 December 2009 (EST)
