Very nice. I like the fire effect. How did you get that?

with a lot of layers, a lot of doing and twice as much undoing :o/ lol need to practice/refine my flames more.. they still turn out looking a bit 'rough' however.. basically ur making use of layers, text, gaussian blur, the wind effect and the liquify tool.. along with hue/colourise..and layer modes to shape and blend the flames.. the reflection is simply a copy of the flamed text using scale and perspective with a small amount of gaussian blur.. and the 'renderosity' has been started off the same as the flames but with no wind or liquify etc and a gradient applied should start making notes as i go.. coz a lot of the time i end up with sommin that looks ok.. and whilst i keep the original psd a lot of it is trial and error and im later hard pressed to remember how exactly i ended up with the end result Cheers Whimsical :o)

Great Banner!!
should start making notes as i go..
I tell myself this all the time.. But do I listen to myself?? Of course not!! I'd rather pretend there's nothing wrong with my memory..

Life may not be the party we hoped for but while we're here we should dance.
