So here is my new experiment.

1024 * 768

1280 * 800 (widescreen)

the widesreen one was automatically resized by the host so here is the full resolution.

I made one like that before. I remember there was a tutorial for it, but I can't remember where. Nice results Nagaya! Here is the one I made:

good one Gruzz. I like the blue color.  

Good effect Really great Where's the link to that tutorial please?

thanks sosoe222. i dont remember the tut link but i will try to make steps to make this effect.

I would be really happy

Ok here you go.

1.  Open new image any size and press D for default color. Filter > Render > Clouds

2.  Filter > Pixelate > Mezzotint > short strokes

3.  Filter > Blur > Radial Blur, Zoom, best, 100 (repeat filter 2 to 3 times)

4.  Add Filter > Disort > Twirl

5.  Duplicate the layer and flip it horizontal

6.  Set the blending mode to lighten

7.  Done

Thank you, I'm sure this will be useful for me. It gives a very nice effect.

you are most welcome  

That's sounds like ASHARs tutorial for radial blurs with a twirl effect added.:smile: Great job though!

Similar YES, but same NO.

This step is different

please do not tell me that u just made that wallpaper by only using effects...

i`m getting surprise by the minute... there are lot`s of things that can be done in Photoshop...

Thanks for the explanation

yes, only six steps. You can try and post your result.

You are welcome sosoe222.

ok... i tried it 2 times... the second time i did a few modification... before the twirl i added some colors with the paint bucket... then when i saw it final i knew i must do something... so i merged the layers... added a blur ... twirled it again... duplicated and lighten...

so here is my second result... the first one is pretty much like yours so i`m not attaching it...

looks good cellblade. may be you a reduce the blur a little bit to make the lines (twirls) come out a more.  

Good work Nagaya  .
I have gone through some tutorials to create such twirl effects in Photoshop . After fusing all tricks (which I know) together , I came up with these two images:

I know they should be placed in a new thread but I don't want to create a new topic for them . I hope Nagaya will permit me to put those images here :he.

you dont need my permission ASHAR.  

Your posts are most than welcome here.    

Very good results. Thanks for sharing.  

how do you reduce a blur on a image after you have saved it?

you cant remove the blur after you saved in jpeg or png of gif..!

if you havent saved your psd then you will have to do it from the scratch.  

well i do have the psd... so how do i remove the blur?

if you have the psd, then it will be easy.

just delete the layer on which you applied the blur.  

ok... i`ll give it a try... thx for the advice...

edit:

well it looks like i have to start all over... because i just did that and there is no difference...
is there no filter to achieve this?

Actually, nagaya, even if you have saved your psd, you still cannot reduce the guassian blur. It is only saved in temporary history (when you close photoshop, thats it. no more reduction)!

Well I know that very well.  

I am only talking if the blur has been applied to the top layer then deleting that will save time to make it from the scratch.
