Visual mod help needed

[Hummingbird Aerospace]

I got bored with stock graphics, so I downloaded EVE, PlanetShine, and Scatterer. My problem is that when I open up the menu and KSP started running as slow as a single NERV attempting to de-orbit the Mun. But, I sat through the bone-crushing 15 minutes it took me to get to my save, load a basic rover, and realize THERE WERE CLOUDS!!! All of the planets looked pretty when I went into the map. Dres still looked boring as ever, but that’s normal. I wanna keep the fluffy clouds and the realistic water, but...

1: I saw an image where laythe looked super pretty, it was this aqua blue colour and you can see the clouds from orbit. How do I get this?

2: How do I get my computer to run faster with visual mods?

3: What is your favourite visual mod layout?

you can also install new textures to planets. It doesn't consume too much fps and the ground is a lot better than stock. 

Also, if you are running low on fps, you may want to disable some of the visual components of EVE, like cloud density, or water subdivisions. It can all be done in game through the menus but it is not easy to find the parameters. You may ask for help on the forums. I use SciFi graphics for now that is for potato's pc. It is really nice and colorful.

As for Laythe, you may want to post an image of what you saw.

Also, the graphics mods shouldn't take too long to load, unless your RAM is old and slow. It WILL take longer, but 15 minutes is a lot. Maybe try upgrading a bit your RAM, or if you don't have a solid state disk, then maybe try using a usb to launch the game or even to use it as RAM (windows has that option in the last versions)
