Can anyone make a supernova image for me?  It's for a school project.  I just need the view the looking diagonal down at it.

Just stars in the bakround I guess. No planets.

  SWEET
But could you make it a little farther in time, like make it bigger and add a shockwave.  This one is fine if you don't won't to make another.

That explains it... but was that necessary? Why not just edit the first? Or is the dark spam proving too much for ya'? hehe

Looks pretty cool!   ... My only gripe with it (and also with the Special Edition Star Wars), is the view of the shockwave on edge (as if it was the rings of Saturn).

The original Star Wars was fine with the Death Star blowing up in an expanding ball of gas and debris. But then, because it looks "cool", they had to redo it with those ring-shockwaves everybody likes to use.

Most planetary nebulae look like a ring because we're viewing the thickest part of it, the edge of the sphere.

That's what I like about Freespace: the shockwaves expand in a sphere.

except that when a star collapses the poles are pulled in first which slightly flattens the star and therefore makes the shockwave somewhat thinker around the equator.

Thank you very much Carl, I really appreciate it.

BTW, I'm typing your name at the bottom of it to show you made it.

I happened to do up this image (hope it works...   ) for my campaign - it's more of a stylealized supernova, but it was done 100% in Photoshop.   If you want you can have the pic w/o the text...

"...The quintessential quality of our age is that of dreams coming true. Just think of it. For centuries we have dreamt of flying; recently we made that come true: we have always hankered for speed; now we have speeds greater than we can stand: we wanted to speak to far parts of the Earth; we can: we wanted to explore the sea bottom; we have: and so  on, and so on: and, too, we wanted the power to smash our enemies utterly; we have it. If we had truly wanted peace, we should have had that as well. But true peace has never been one of the genuine dreams - we have got little further than preaching against war in order to appease our consciences. The truly wishful dreams, the many-minded dreams are now irresistible - they become facts." - 'The Outward Urge' by John Wyndham

"The very essence of tolerance rests on the fact that we have to be intolerant of intolerance. Stretching right back to Kant, through the Frankfurt School and up to today, liberalism means that we can do anything we like as long as we don't hurt others. This means that if we are tolerant of others' intolerance - especially when that intolerance is a call for genocide - then all we are doing is allowing that intolerance to flourish, and allowing the violence that will spring from that intolerance to continue unabated." - Bren Carlill
