Compare the shadows on the planet's day/night boundary... I just did quick touch-up in gimp, nothing fancy. (yeah, I know it's not a pro-job or anything, but it's just a demonstration to show my point on those shadows...)

You are way, way too observant. I couldn't even see the difference until I loaded them both into an image editor and swapped them back and forth...

Either that or your monitor has too much contrast. :P

Or maybe everyone else is blind? :lol: lol, jk jk
On a more serious note however, this is apparent on both my monitors hooked up to this computer (one is even a slightly blurry old CRT), at all levels of contrast avaliable to them... I can try on my phone later and post from there as to it's contrast, but probably similar results there too.

Only the two rightmost dark polys are noticable because the others are disguised by the archipelego.
