Ok, hello everybody, yes I know I am a noob, but I can make some pretty good stuff in photoshop. this is a little long tutorial, so don't do this if your parents keep on nagging you to take out the trash or something :lol: . this is just one of mine that a couple of people told me to make a thread about on some photoshop tutorial forums, so I chose this one, being there are some pretty good tutorials on here ^_^ anyways, first off,
1. size 1000X1000

2.set the gradient to foreground and background, with the normal linear gradient, and press "D" to reset the color palet thingie. Then go super crazy with it, some big, some small. pay specific attention to any sides but not too much. once you are somewhat happy with it, do the following in this order. and no you do not have to make any new layers.
