www.space graphics.com missing :(

[cyphyr]

There used to be an execelant site for extreemly high resolution planetary maps (only earth , Moon and Mars) called, I think, spacegraphics.com. The guy that made the site had painstakingly stitched together loads of Nasa and Blue marble images to make some of the best planetary maps I have ever seen. The site has been MIA for quite some time now. I was wondering if anyone had any news of its whereabouts or if it had resurfaced under a differant name. Fortunately I had already downloaded most of his High res maps but there was always the promise of more.
Thanks

this looks promising a list to different sources

Spacegraphics.com definitely existed and it seems to be the website you described (see this page). Unfortunately, I can't find anything useful on archive.org...

A shame that site seems to have disappeared. I remember it being a great resource!

There's high res earth available here:
http://earthobservatory.nasa.gov/Newsroom/BlueMarble/BlueMarble_monthlies.html
The highest res (500m/pixel) requires bittorent.

Or here:
http://visibleearth.nasa.gov/view_set.php?categoryID=2364
It has earthmaps of  21600 x 10800 In TIFF (173.5MB)

Thanks guys
I've got the blue marble stuff, pretty impressive if you got the ram !! I was looking for his site because he hand matched the individual plates and imho I think he did a better job than NASA.

Thanks for sharing those alternative sites.  I've never really looked at this stuff, but it appears interesting .
