The "2-year and 3-month all-sky X-ray Image" obtained with the Gas Slit Camera (GSC) of MAXI in 2009/9/26-2011/12/10. The colors are soft (2-4 keV in red), middle (4-8 keV in green), and hard (8-16 keV in blue) X-rays. About 400 sources as well as the galactic ridge emission are detected. The blue sources are mostly binary X-ray pulsars, the orange are low-mass X-ray binaries, and the red are supernova remnants. Both 1650V and 1550V data are used. Thanks to the deeper exposure more faint extra-galactic objects have got visible. The image is without correction for exposure.
