OK, I found InfranView which will accept PhotoShop plugs-in. Where might I find a plug-in to create icosahedra or gores?

jumpjack here are your grids. When I projected your grid it looked rather strange, then I realized it spanned 350 degrees! I had to fix that, also grid cells are not uniform probably due to antialising.

blink.gif Really?!?
Ops... I generated it automatically with a python script... didn't notice the missing degrees.

Thanks for fixing and projecting.
I don't need a very precise grid, it's just to have a preliminary look to how my globe will result and to see if I can size the "flower" properly.

Is anybody able to tell me if this Java Map Editor is suitable to create such flower petals projections?
I'm getting weird results!
