Starry Night actually does that too, but that site is faster...
However I tried to save the page and it is funny as "select object" works, but "select telescope" and "select eyepiece" don't if you are not online, and I saved the "complete" page...
@ Malcolm - Yes, you wouldn't expect it to be accurate with brightness, but as you can even choose the brand of the eyepiece I hoped it would... I thought they had possibly used real photos with those scopes and eyepieces? Cool anyway.
Now I know what I am missing.
This is nice too:

(the 4-inch scope results seem to be far too good though)
