I was messing around in PSP one day and came up with an effect I thought you might like to try :)

1. Open up a new image in PSP with a black background. Don't make it too big, or this will take ages to do lol.
2. Click Picture Tube, and if your 'Tool Options' box isn't up, right click the icon and select 'Tool Options'. Change your options to mine:



3. Ok now using your mouse, click all over the image to create little purpley stars everywhere.



4. Go to Effects > Geometric Effects > Twirl, and set it to 720 degrees, or -720 degrees if you like. Press 'Ok'. You should now have a nice twirl, but we want to fade it a bit so go to Effects > Blur > Gaussian Blur, and change the 'Radius' to 5.0.
5. Press 'Ctrl' 'C' (or copy), 'Ctrl' 'Z' (undo) and then 'Ctrl' 'L' (pastes as new layer). Then go to Layers > Properties and change the 'Opacity' to about 40-50%. Ok, now you should have this:



6. Now repeat steps 2 and 3, only don't go too mad with the extra stars lol. This is what I got:



7. Don't like the colour? See my Colourising tutorial :)
