    Your mars is quite good, you need to blur the white halo around earth more and sharpen earth itself. Also the space looks slightly repetitive, other than that looks ok!

    You suck.

    <constructive criticism>
    Haha, just kidding. But really, it's good but they just don't.. blend well. You know what I mean? Maybe it's the halo or something, but it just looks like they were pasted on top of the background.

    I made a few minor modifications to get the planets to blend in against the galactic background.

    The answer is ROFL.

    This one's much less dense, but has two moons... not totally sure what I think of it, but I'm still learning what Photoshop can do...

    The second one is much better. But lose the lens flare. There's a reason you never see them in astrophotography.

    Remember, that's my second Photoshop image. I'm sure they'll improve over time...

    Re: My first PhotoShop image

    I ran through a tutorial for the first one, and just kinda played with it for the second one... I imagine I'll continue to use that method for learning new stuff. Follow a tut to get the basic idea, then play.

    My point exactly, bullshifter. The green moon has a shadow almost exactly sideways, implying that the light source is perpendicular to that. However, the red planet has its shadow pointing in the opposite direction, yet the light source is clearly supposed to be behind it. Unless you mean to suggest that the point of light is in fact on, or close to, the surface of the red planet and is projected across its surface in the manner shown. But I don't believe that even you are that asinine.

    The shadow on the red planet suggests that the light source should be in the lower left of the picture.

    Silly monkey, clearly you've never heard of binary star systems.

    We are being shown a solar eclipse!

    I agree. The lense flare is the trademark of nub. But hopefully it is out of your system now and will never be used again.


    Those are better than my first photoshop creations. Sadly, they also incorporated the nub flare.
    My monkey wearing the fedora points and laughs at you.
