Your good at graphics. Can I add you to the graphics designers? And try to work on a LSWForum banner.

I'll try if I can. Meanwhile, here's a tutorial!

Final Effect:


Step One: Open up GIMP.
Step Two: File>New>640x400>OK
Step Three: Layer>New Layer>name it 'planet'>OK
Step Four: Take the largest Round Paintbrush and click the paintbrush tool. Make sure the color is red. Increase the brush size to 10.00.
Step Five: Put a red circle in roughly the center of the picture. Offset it an way you like. I put it more so in the bottom right portion of the screen, but it still looks centered.

Step Six: Filters>Blur>Gaussian Blur>20-25

Step Seven: Filters>Render>Lava>Seed-26 Size-20 Roughness-15>OK

Step Eight: Select>None
Step Nine: Click the Background layer and Bucket fill it with black.

Step Ten:Right click any layer and select 'Merge all visible layers'>Leave the defaults and click Merge.
Step Eleven: Filters>Light and Shadow>Lens Flare>X Coordinate:128 &Y Coordinate: 128>OK

You're all done!

Awsome! But what exactly is GIMP? And were can I download it?

EDIT: Never mind I figured it out. Look what I made!

GIMP=GNU Image Manipulation Program: Can be downloaded here.

Ooh! Ooh! Lemme try a banner! What are you looking for in one?

That doesn't look like Mustafar, more like a bouncy ball.

Could you give us a tutorial 'Amplifield' photo, please?

Amplified tutorial:
It's extremely easy, but it gives a cool effect. It's not my best tutorial. You should play around with the settings before finalizing it.

Step One: Open GIMP with a picture 600x150

Step Two: Make a new layer and fill the background layer black.

Step Three: Filters>Render>Fractal Explorer>Select Barnsley 3

Step Four: Click 'Colors' at the top of Fractal Explorer and drag red and blue to zero.

Step Five: Click Parameters at the top again and make Left=-1.58369, Make Right=1.53219, Make Top=-1.27468, Make Bottom=1.09442, Make Iterations=44, Make CX=-0.33262, Make CY=-0.05365 and then click OK.
Step Six: You can add any text you want in it or play around with the settings until you get something you really like it.

Thank you! I gonna make one right now.
