Last night, and into this morning, I spent about 2 and a half hours designing this space sceen. I used 2 photoshop tutorials to help me in creating this. So what do you all think about it? Good? Bad? Its okay? Thanks for any comments.

(Note: Pictures are fairly large Planet (170kb) and Space (989kb)...)

Here is the picture (NOTE: Its the version I planned on uploading now):

And here is the planet by itself if you want to see that:

EDIT: Need to fix something

EDIT 2: Fixed

EDIT 3: New Pics

Here is that asteroid I promised. It didn't turn out exactly as planned, but I still think it looks pretty good:

It looks like the background out of a space drama anime. Nice work.

It does look really good, the only thing I dont like is "Keikonium" in the corner. Sure you need to "sign" your work, but you dont have to have it that big.

The Keikonium wasn't supposed to be there in the version I uploaded. I uploaded the wrong one, Keikonium is supposed to be in a whitish gray with a black outline following the curverture of the planet in the shadowed area. I relize that my name looks reallllly bad in the cornor.

And the tutorials were on some major PS tutorial website, but I can't remember what one it was (both are on the same site, same page). I have PS on my other computer which doesn't have internet, so I have to write down all the text. Sorry I can't provide a link.

Thanks for all the great comments! I will update my first post with my asteroid tommorrow.

Looks very good to me. I like the planet and the rings around it the best.

I do agree with everybody else about the name at the top being very large and stealing focus from the rest of the picture, but it sounds like you're already aware of that.

Reminds me of Aether Except not as blue

I have to say, the rings are a very nice touch to the picture.... VERY nice touch.

Those backgrounds are pretty neat. The planet one would be great for a desktop. And the first one too.

I like them both.

Added the new pictures to my post...I hope you guys like them. I love making space sceens, they are so much fun. I am try to create a faux earth now, but its not going too well. The land "types" are hard to create with my crappy gradient skills.

Wow! That looks cool. Those cave pics look familiar... isn't that from Yoshi's Island and SMB3 (with mushrooms)?

It actually has graphics from:

Cave 1:

1. Mushrooms from Actraiser 2
2. Cave FG thing from SMB3
3. Crystals and thing behind crystals from YI
4. Yellow sky from Actrasier 2

Cave 2:

1. Cave FG thing from SMB3
2. The rest is from Actraiser 2
3. The "light beam" was a gradient made by me in Photoshop 7.0.

Both caves were made "smooth" by using a filter called "Median Filter" that comes with Irfanview. I used Irfanview to make them a bit darker too.

Asteroid? It looks like several asteroids or that the asteroid is shattered. Still good, though.

Nice sig. And I couldn

Very nice! The space image will be good to fill the empty BG on my computer desktop.
