It's made with a couple galaxy plug-ins Stars, and galaxy ellipse
Then i created a light src to the right.
Then i opened it up in GMIC 1.4.8.3 is out now btw 492 filters and counting - way to go David and everyone else that has contributed filters.
Anyways i then used a fave preset of mine the first one in the list - cant remember the name.
After that it was duplicated 3 times and flipped to form the cross and then
just a pinch of swirl and voila instant abstract art - Lame i know but i thought it looked cool and hey Willy or anyone else if you want to use it as a cool sig bg, just give me credit if someone asks.

I call it weird because - well it's weird.



Actually it would make a pretty cool desktop wallpaper.

It is cool. It is weird. We'll have to call it Rod's cool, weird desktop wallpaper. I like it.

The merging of 2 Galaxies.

This is a pretty nifty effect indeed. As lylejk says, it feels like a galaxy collision.

That is awesome! It's a simple design, but very appealing. This is something I can see myself using as my wallpaper!

Thanks folks!

I would really call this more of a Big Bang? Reversed? Idk... nice going there Rod, it looks great and Very Creative of you to think of crashing two Galaxies together

I think it would make a good cover to another Harry Potter novel.

It might, although it would need to be like a spell... now that you mention that it does really look like a spell...

Is that a script that makes the book like effect?
