Space
Something I knocked together one evening.

It's based on an image I saw ages ago and is my first real image using GIMP, let me know what you think.

It's not really 56k friendly and is about 1500x3000 pixels big.

Feel free to add and images of your own.

I think it looks great, especially for a first. It's a composite of several images, is it not?

Of coarse not, but it's work in progress so any ideas are welcomed.

Looks very professional. How about putting some kind of space probe in there?

That looks wicked! Having something in there as a focal point brings it all together nicely. I like the shadow cast by the probe - nice touch!
