The intention of my web banner was to make my theme, "earth, space & beyond" look appealing.
I basically started my project by adding noise to the background in order to create the stars. I also slightly applied a dark-blue gradient to the background; it's hard to notice it in the banner, but if you switched that layer (linear gradient) on and off in the .psd file, you can actually see a significant difference.
I took a picture of the earth and re-sized it to fit in the banner. I then duplicated the layer and used an overlay blend on that duplicate with a decrease in opacity.
A path, as well as a radial gradient, was added to look like a shooting star was flying around the planet. Added text with glow to it.
The goal of my project was to include all the required items listed in the instructions. Although I met those goals, there are still a few parts of the project that I am not confident with. Some examples include the placement of the text as well as possibly working with the planet a little more.
