Oops


I dont have a link to the tutorial (just came upon it when searching around), but its called something like fastest glass ball in the west. Very simple.


Step 1. 300 x 300 (pixels) and make backround black.


Step 2. filter > Render > Lens flare > 50 -300mm zoom


Step 3. filter > Distort > polar coordinates > POLAR to RECTANGULAR


Step 4. Image > rotate canvas > flip canvas verticle


Step 5. filter > Distort > polar coordinates > RECTANGULAR to POLAR


vuala, that gets you a cool glassy ball.  :}


The only difference I did was first i rendered clouds ( dark blue foreground and white ) after step one and then did the lens flare.



when i did that the whole picture just turned into normal clouds. Mabey its because I have the whole ball on one layer and only the shading on the layer above it  [confused]


What is our favorite program/app? (Hint - it begins and ends with the letter P)
