Aww, c'mon, SeniorS. You're that good - you can do it. You're just not giving yourself the chance to tackle these things.
Thanks mate!

I'll give it a try next week, maybe inspiration will hit me :)

Oh! This really is a challenge, I have no idea how to do things like this, I will have to read, and read, and read tutorials, but it will be fun!:)

Good challenge! I can't wait to try it. Like some others, this is going to be very different for me. This is like my desktop theme, Hubble and beyond. Lots of kids (from one to 93) here that play with this theme or close to it, but there should be some great stuff. Hey Belial, great inner tube or is it a lifesaver, LOL.

Great tutorials there Lizzie! Martin's work is pretty cool; you can see a lot of the inspiration and source shots in is photo gallery. Very fun challenge.

Sometime Later:

I am trying to crate first a basic starfield using noise to begin with. The initial step is, add noise, then levels. I got the effect I wanted in preview while applying level changes but as soon as I clicked OK, it was a noisier noise, but not what I wanted. I thought maybe if I did it as an adj. layer, so I tired that, merged the levels layer down, and the same thing happened. I hope someone has some ideas about what's up. Here are my results:

A very large Thank You to Lizad for the tutorial links !! That's awsome, man. Will save and check them all out for sure.

Now, Zeealex recommended me to enter a thing I just posted in another thread but after checking up on the terms it won't qualify since it's not all done in Photoshop.

So, out of contest, I will put a link in for those interested since it's about a "backwards" workflow - going from After Effcts to Photoshop :
Eclipse ... kind of ....
