Well, to tell you the truth, the outcome isn't that good, which is why people aren't posting that many outcomes.

Thanks. Now that you got the technique down, how about you try different textures and stuff.

When you blur the outside of the planet, you don't want anything selected. After it's done blurring, select the outside of the planet and press delete on the blurred layer. Make sense? Or more clarification.

Post a screenshot on what you're getting, and maybe I can help more.

You :GaussianBlur: it. Fill in OUTISDE of the planet, and then select the outside and delete it...

Frontcannon, look at this rule: Sorry.

This is actually a pretty cool effect. Nice thinking.

Or just try making it in PDN. It's possible.

Oh, I think I know what you mean. Try adjusting the transparency of the layer by pressing F4 and turning down the transparency.

I don't think it's very good. If it was good, it would get a lot more attention.

I'm going to re-do this tutorial. I've found a lot of different ways to make textures, and better 3d effects.

Thanks. Here's another planet I made.

Can you show is a link of what it would look like? Or just the image?

The first one is too :AntiAliasingOff: Plus, it might be too big.

That's really good. I'd suggest trying to make each sign a little different, but still really really nice job. 100% PDN.

Wow cool text and awesome background. Did you make that background 100% PDN?

Thanks everyone. Update. Oh and check out my site. The link is in my sig. It isn't visually pleasing, but it has almost all my work on it, and it's updated sooner than my gallery is.

OOooooh that's good.

You can use the align object plugin. I meant to say that in my post, sorry.

It's good, but try making your own original stuff.

Thanks.

WINNER IS YELLOWMAN CONGRATS!

Where can I get the older version of paint.net? I noticed the difference and I need some smooth text.

I don't understand why you use shape3d. Why not just make a circle?
