There are many different ways, but here is one cool way that looks good...


1) New Document- Make a 400x400 document. Now press "D" on your keyboard to reset the foreground and background colors to black and white. Make sure your background is BLACK.

2) Clouds- Now apply Filter>Render>Clouds then Filter>Render>Difference Clouds on the background layer.

3) Plastic Wrap-
Now Filter>Artistic>Plastic Wrap and use these settings:

Now apply Filter>Stylize>Glowing Edges and use these settings as well:

4)Duplicate Layer-
Duplicate the layer and set the new duplicated blending mode to Color Burn:

5)Lens Flare- Apply a Filter>Render>Lens flare right in the middle of the bottom layer. Use these settings or modify them to your liking:

6)Set Color- With the bottom layer still selected press CNTRL+U and use these color settings:

7)Final- Here is what you get when you finish. a Fire Ball!

nice work on those - halo one is my favorite but you should make the logo blend in a bit - either put it to overlay or lower opacity :D keep it up
