This is fascinating to see pictured!
I'd love to see a version expanded to the top 10.

too bad they aren't ranked by size. Also not as pretty as the OP.
Oh jeez Europe only has one significant one and it does not cover as much as expected.
Yeah I'd love to see more. The major rivers of China as well as the Niger and St. Lawrence would be awesome.
