I was successful at creating the globe, but there were some issues. I cannot freely move it, it is always stationary in the program. I can change the perspective, but it will always remain a picture (I really want one that revolves. The big issue that I became painfully aware of is that my map needs to be a rectangle instead of a square. I need to greatly increase the polar ice caps and then trim the top and bottom of the map. I will post an updated map and the globe version once it's complete.
