As nice as this tutorial is, I'm finding that you could easily use one of the following plug ins to achieve the effect desired: 1. Wet Floor Reflection 2. Reflection 3. Water Reflection

Thankies for the comments & suggestions. And yes, the green thing is meant to be there--if you look to the left of that, and if you look at the right angle with the right lighting, there's a rainbow.

Thanks! Glad you like em.

Woah! My gallery looks very very pathetic next to your's...I /love/ your starscapes.

You have some nice talent. I like "Flakes".

Love the images!

Love those starscapes! I think the "black hole" looking this is very nice. Keep it up!

The second one.

Hey, thanks! I'm so glad you like them. You know, I was racking my brain for something that would make them look less rendered. A small blur would be nice!

Welcome to my gallery. All of these are my works that I've created in PDN--some of them are using stock images. Most of the stock images I do not own and I do not claim their bases as my own. As...noobish...as some of these are, I'm quite proud of them. Color Effects: Stocks: This is my latest creation that's actually worth posting! It's a...stock tag...looking thing including pictures from Wiki Commons, and a hand-made c4d! Enjoy! This was quite the fun thing to make, I liked how it turned out. It took an hour of work and at least 25 layers to make it. It started out as a simple stock image...and then, I came along and made it Colorborne Creek. I have been obsessed with NCIS lately...and Abby, the geekish forensic scientist/computer nerd--the key to NCIS--is my favorite character. I made this with a few stock images and a handmade rendered c4d. I hope you like it! I think it looks like the waterfalls are "bleeding" the colors--so I named it Bleeding Color Creek. I've been obsessed with this kinda of thing lately. I've decided to call this one "The Pathway To Heaven". I call this piece "The Sunshine Alley". I like it a lot. Sigs/Avatars: My latest sig. <3 Abstracts: My first abstract background! "The Space Tunnel". It's my newest work, and I love it. Ect: "Feather". Made using Ash's fur tutorial, Bevel Selection Plug-in, and Feather Plug-in. "The Puddle". It's harder than it looks, actually. I call this piece "Snakeskin". It's extremely easy to make, I was surprised. It just goes to prove how easily Paint.NET can do things! That is my latest and probably my favorite thing I've ever created in Paint.NET--I made it today. It is the base for a website layout of mine... Again, a website banner...but I never used it, actually. It just felt too emo or something. I think that's more of a "texture" of something to that effect. I don't even remember how I created it. While I don't know the exact information of how I got that....I know that a lot of messing around was involved.

((First off, great tutorial, I'm doing it right now for a layout and it's turning out beautiful!)) Okay, I think your problem is the tolerance. Up above, below the main menu, is a "tolerance" bar when you've selected the Magic Wand. Drag it all the way down to zero.

Interesting idea, and it taught me a lot about the whole "Zoom/Rotate", believe it or not. Here's what I got, on my site layout:
