Sheesh, burning planet backgrounds. Luv it. :D
"To live on as we have is to leave behind joy, and love, and companionship, because we know it to be transitory, of the moment. We know it will turn to ash. Only those whose lives are brief can imagine that love is eternal. You should embrace that remarkable illusion. It may be the greatest gift your race has ever received."

In order to get the planets to render over the stars, you need to adjust the alpha channels of the backgrounds. Make the disc of the planet totally (black/white - which is the opaque color again?) and they'll be more solid-looking. You can also do this for dark patches in nebulas which obscure the starlight.

Klingon Academy now works on XP/Vista/Win 7 thanks to one dude's patches, click here for details. I highly recommend it!
