You can check it here: winski.net/?page_id=12. You only need to pick your input image, number of gores, and click "project". | |

It's actually through Gene that I discovered the globes mentioned in my answer to your linked question. It has been my intention to port Gene's work to real GIS, but have nothing to show for it yet. Brighter minds than mine are needed to make progress I think ;-) | |
