2d skybox how or where?

In the old days i used Terragen generated pictures as a base, then photoshop them (heavily)

Anyone knows where I can find 2d skyboxes or any tool to create them?To be specific I am looking for a "sky city" location, so coulds at the bottom and clear sky on top

Thanks.

You can use 3d apps such as 3ds max or maya to do that easily. There are scripts around to automate rendering the 6 sides of the skybox and stuff.

i once wrote a tutorial about that topic:

Creating cube map textures for skies

you can find some other stuff here: http://www.thomashess.net/?tag=tutorials
