The one where you were playing around looks pretty neat to me. I like it! Thx for the amazing tutorial..... I wanted to put in a face with it so that the face is kinda exploding out of the planet as well. I think it turned out pretty nice: What do you guys think? Edit: I kept messing with it and I noticed that using Effects --> Sharpen gives it a slightly better look. Kind of a better glow and, well, a sharper look. Also, I wanted to see what it would look like as an ink sketch and I really liked the result: Kind of has that comic book look don't ya think?

Thank you! This worked great! =)

I've looked around for information on how to do this, but so far I haven't found anything. I want to fill in an area i selected with the magic wand with the background, which is basically gray in varying shades. Anyway, I don't want to just fill in with one shade of gray. If anyone can answer this or direct me somewhere where I can learn how to do this, I'll greatly appreciate it. Also, please tell me if you don't understand what I'm asking. Thanks
