So I was just randomly messing around with my animation on the menu when I thought of rotating it. Real simple, I know, but it really gave that earth animation, which looked somewhat 3D, a much more convincing look. Lets start with our original look:

(Note: The file is 1.33 mb since we have not implemented compressed images, nor changed our publishing compression settings, so it might take a while to load)
And then my new version, which just calls rotation++.

As you can see, simple code really DOES make a difference in how your game looks, and how well it does. This simple change really did effect a lot of my plans. I am redoing my menu to incorporate the spinning earth into it. Good thing I had a flexible plan that allowed lots of changes.
