Release 0.2.5-svn1328

[Ingar]

With the the summer behind us, a new release might be just the thing to cheer up a misty autumn evening. Release 0.2.5-svn1328, with more space and more particles, is now available from the downloads page.
Project::OSiRiON 0.2.5-svn1328 Particle Probe

The data download is much smaller than the previous release: I converted all PNG sky and planet textures to JPEG. This does not affect SVN.
