I love to immulate some of the PS tuts and other graphic doodles and effects I see while surfing, so here's a variation of a PS tut I did in gimp.

very nice.

Impressive. How did you do these superb rays?

Thanks Molly, Ofnuts.

I did the light rays with a brush I had and put it on a separate layer with a couple of others. One layer was the big "starburst" brush and the other two layers were just feathered colored circle selections. I just player with the hue & saturaton a little and set the opacity and merged them together when I got the look I wanted. The files are HUGE! One brush alone was almost 6MB and there are 26 of them.
I got them on deviant art. Here's the link.

The hardest part was making the 3D box and getting the textures at the right angles and making them match up properly. Check out the xcf and zoom in about 200% to see what I mean. Now I wish I had started with a much bigger canvas.

Now that is impressive Drac.

Those are very nice folks.
