OK, maybe they are a bit annoying and repetitive and a little to bright, but check this out... proof that CCP know's their stuff

yes but do most nebulas circle solar systems?
that and do all solar systems have them?
i must say i want to just see some really dark system with a good view of the stars around it

Go outside tonight and look up. Is that what you see? No.
Most of the pictures you see like that are shifted so gamma and radio waves show in colors we can see, so we know more is going on than just blackness. But since we CAN'T see that, we wouldn't always be seeing BLINDINGLY BRIGHT backgrounds. Sometimes, yes. But certainly not always.
IMO there needs to be a way to fade down the skyboxes from solid black to what we have now, ffs I don't want them this damn bright. -----

Bloody hell, calm down people. I really only posted it because I thought it was a nice picture to look at and kinda reminded me of some of the backgrounds in Eve (particularly those awful pink ones)
Mind you, I did expect that I'd get a few people going "oooh... ahhhh... perty!".
And for the record, I do think the current backgrounds are far too bright and annoying and the ability to tone them down or turn them off would be ideal.

Yep, shots like those are composited from several different pictures taken at various points on the non-visual spectrum. But hey, maybe that's what our pod circuits are doing in the game, letting us see all sorts of different wavelengths of light.
After all we see everything Amarr turrets do, no matter what type of crystal they've got in there :)

Well, not quite photoshopping, but the hubble pictures are composed of the ultraviolet and the infrared ends of the spectrum. Then the picture is created using "false colour" to highlight the detail.
Nothing is added, but you would never "see" it like that. My favourite of course is the pillars of creation...absolutely breath taking when you realise the dots are galaxys..not stars

If you read the associated text then it states that this is a composite from visible light images.
At least I think that is what it is trying to say because it's a little ambiguous.
Quote: taken from a mosaic containing a billion pixels by Hubble's Advanced Camera for Surveys. The resulting image uncovered thousands of stars never seen before in visible light.
This could mean it wasn't visible light images and that it showed stars that didn't show up in visible light images.
Quote: Among the stars Hubble spotted for the first time in visible light in Orion were young brown dwarfs...
That bit doesn't neccessarily refer to this image (but I believe it does).

Yes, it would be nice to have EVE look a little bit more like real space (ie, not nebulae everywhere, and differences between the center of the galaxy and the outer areas).
However, I'm just gonna play Microsoft Space Simulator.

I was referring to the text from the NASA link I gave, not the one you gave.
And yeah, I've got some T2 eyeballs, but they are funny ones, not serious ones

Both pictures were taken by Hubble
From the text on your pic:

That's a clue about the spectrum thing But nice pic anyway

Hubble can take pictures in the visible light spectrum too, ya know? But I'm still a little undecided as mentioned in a previous post, the text is a little ambiguous (but I still think they are implying it's a visible light image).
Anyway, who cares? It's an awesome pic and makes a nice desktop background.
Don't argue with me Flinx because I will always win. And if I don't I will hunt you down and pod you ! You in your T2 Huginn with T2 720mm artillery will be no match for me in my, erm, whatever noob ship Gallente's get.

that's merely a hoax. nasa hires air brush artist to produce those supposed "hubble telescope" pictures.

Uh, you said CCP knows their stuff because the nasa pics like the one linked show...
Hell I shouldn't have to quote your OP to you.
Space is not like that everywhere, those pics are colorized (how you spell colorized depends on where you live, by the by), and eve spans an entire galaxy. I don't believe these nebulae cover that much of any galaxy.
Unless it was some kind of crazy special galaxy full of lots of dust.
Dust that might be so dense that it slows ships down in it, making them fly like they were in an atmosphere.

But you're still wrong.

You do understand that between us, the humans, and the stars is a light refracting and absorbing barrier of gases called an atmosphere. If you're trying to argue that the universe looks like nothing but black backgrounds with dim pulsating points, you fail at not only free thinking, but life.
Now get out of this thread before you hurt someone with your stupidity.

While I dont really leave empire space much there is a few sections that have not "black" space but a really cool non-nebula backgrond, and isn't there a region that has a black background? **--------**--------------** While blood, carnage, and distruction may be my "happy place" that is nothing like the feeling I get while hauling 2 mill isk in good theu low sec. |

Why all the fuss? As anxious as I truly am to actually see humans regularly traveling in space, it would make for a pretty dull backdrop in the game. To boot, there wouldn't be any sounds.
I like eve the way it is.. you bring it any closer to reality and the game would start to be borified(tm).
Kind of like mencia said recently, this is like watching a movie with a friend, liking the movie then having your friend cut it down because it's not realistic. IT'S A FREAKING MOVIE!!! (or game in this case)
If we wanted realistic we'd go outside and enjoy reality. I personally want something close enough to reality to make me forget it's not (not hard when you play outside of sobriety ) but touched up to make me go 'ooo purty'

As you're saying it's a visible light image, HOWEVER, it was taken with a very long exposure time, You really wouldn't see a nebulae like that with the naked eye.
The long exposure time used when taking photographs like this is what allows that. |

Sweet if that's the case. That being said, I'm fairly confident the exposures used were pretty damn long.
Gotta love Hubble.
