Dan Jul/26/2010 10:38Thank's "No!!!" that linear blend mode tip worked an absolute treat. I'm working a high res version and they did the stars in the tutorial made them too small to see. setting the copy to linear light worked perfectly

harm Oct/17/08 20:00You can also use minimize on the top layer with 1 pixel. You get less stars and more random.

tanisha Aug/5/08 02:36This is realy nice and easy way to make to stars.

Suman May/27/08 17:00Sweet n simple i like that

h4 May/4/08 17:04simple but naiz

NO!!! Mar/19/08 23:48If there are toomany stars, set the layer blend of the copied layer to linear light.

kek Jan/30/08 00:45Very nice and easy way to make stars. If u think there is to many stars, or if u dont think there are enough, u can simply go to Image -> Levels, and just play around a bit there.

RP Jan/27/08 07:17Discovered this trick on another site, but this is much simpler to understand! I suggest adding different coloured gradients to give the stars a more "space" like feel. I found a three colour vertical gradient going from green, to blue to black works brilliantly.

milind Dec/21/07 22:55Oh ! Its very simple

ulf Dec/18/07 22:23Awesome

Mel Oct/21/07 01:07how do you get bigger stars?

Tiberius Aug/14/07 14:30Afterwards, you can create a gradient map to give the stars differnet colours. Keep the stars very light shades of blue, yellow and red for the best results.

Last Dance May/14/07 06:11This is a great tut, it gives a very nice effect, although when i did it i added more duplicated overlay layers. Great tut thnx ;)
