Changes from original
Deuar
  • Charon was far too small, and Image:Charon_plutoface.png was scaled and used to rectify this.
  • Proteus was added, Image:Proteus (Voyager 2).jpg was used
  • Noise in the Nereid image was color-filtered out
  • Ariel was only partially seen, so NASA image http://photojournal.jpl.nasa.gov/jpeg/PIA01351.jpg was used
  • Similarly, Rhea and Tethys had bad quality images, and Image:Rhea hi-res PIA07763.jpg as well as the NASA image http://photojournal.jpl.nasa.gov/jpeg/PIA06625.jpg were scaled and inserted instead
  • Phobos, Deimos, and Dactyl were far too large to be in scale, and this was rectified.
  • Hyperion, was too large, so the newer Cassini image http://photojournal.jpl.nasa.gov/jpeg/PIA07740.jpg was used and scaled.
  • The moon image was distorted (elongated in the horizontal direction), http://photojournal.jpl.nasa.gov/jpeg/PIA00305.jpg was used
  • Satellites of w:Trans-Neptunian objects greater than ~250 km in diameter were added (synthetic images)
  • Inserted scale text and modified title.
KFP
  • Titan image replaced by Image:Titan_in_natural_color_Cassini.jpg
  • Triton and Nereid moved down slightly
TotoBaggins
  • Title changed
  • Earth image changed to Image:The_Earth_seen_from_Apollo_17.jpg.
  • Aligned Mars and Ida moons; aligned "others".
  • Replaced blurry Ganymede with PD image from http://solarsystem.nasa.gov/planets/profile.cfm?Object=Ganymede .
Deuar
  • Ganymede colour has been scaled to correspond to the true colour found in Image:Ganymede g1 true.jpg.
TotoBaggins
  • Triton tilted.
  • Unaesthetically-named cubewanoes removed.
  • Dysnomia labelled as orbiting Eris.
City303
  • Updated Charon image from New Horizons.
JCPagc2015
  • Dactyl (Asteroid Ida) and Dysnomia (Eris) were removed.
  • Updated images of Saturn's moons from Cassini spacecraft (except Phoebe).
  • Updated Moon image with full moon image from Galileo spacecraft (facing side from the Earth).
  • Updated the color image of Ganymede.
