^ Final ^
I am going to submit soon, any more crits...?
 
  
Two versions here: 1 bit, and the other AA'ed.
Not sure which one I like most , because the dithering doesn't go with the AA'ed one and the 1-bit seems jaggy.  
 
I'm starting to think 1-bit. May color soon.

I prefere the first one. for the second : AA isn't necessary for B&W

AA means bad lineart, pixel on.

You should work on the clouds; they're really small and oddly shaped now so I read them as rocks originally. Move the sun upwards a bit and place larger, more cloud-looking clouds below it, possibly overlapping. By cloud-shaped, I mean that they should have more vertical height that they currently do but otherwise your clouds aren't too bad. I'm glad you avoided the ugly n00bish thought-bubble cloud design.

EDIT: Typo.

Updated: New sun and new clouds.
Update again: Moon was too small, so I made it bigger. Also a new black hole thing, tweaked stars.

I'd call that a top-view of a spiral galaxy, not a black hole. ;)
 
I like the star side and the sun itself but the clouds still don't do it for me. I guess the largest is passable but the others are hard to make out; maybe add some thin and wispy cirrus clouds towards the night-day edge? I feel so oppressive for some reason, lol. Like I'm saying MAKE YOUR CLOUDS MY WAY. NOW.
 
But I still think they'd read better that way. :P

I quite like the night side, especially the stylized moon .  Like MoD, I like the sun on the day side, but something about it seems rather off... I think it may be due to the diminishing perspective, it seems as though the sun is at the same level as the clouds, and is in front of them.  It may just be me, though...

Clouds (I hope) are fixed.
