In this tutorial you will learn how to create liquid plasma effect. This effect is perfect for your
website headers, your forum signatures, banners, graphic designs…
1. Create new document. Width 400 px, height 400 px.
Fill your background with black color.
2. Now we will add some lens flare effects.
Go to Filter -> Render -> Lens Flare.
Leave the default settings. Add your lens flares like on picture below.
3. In this step we will add some chrome effect.
Go to Filter -> Sketch -> Chrome use settings like on picture below.
4. Now we will add some color to this.
Hit CTRL + U (Hue & Saturnation). Tick the Colorize box.
Saturnation set to 100, others set whatever you like.
You can stop here, cuz that’s it.
Pretty simple.
You can always play with some other effects, add some scan lines, some icons,signs…

hummmm, it seems i’m the only one who had the problem not to be able to make several “lens flare” If I click twice the button, they’ll be on the same place, and I can’t move them after. What did I do wrong ? (But it’s still a great tutorial
) thank you !

For every flare you must go Filter -> Render -> Lens flare.
There you will have possibility to place i like I did on pictures above.
