I thought it would be a great idea if there were a thread for discussing the creation of planets, moons, and star systems.

i've got a problem in Lunar Cell ..
when i click "lunar cell-180" , Photoshop launches. so , whats next?

 

[IgnoreThisBarrel]

When you open Photoshop go to the "Filters" button on the nav bar, go down to "Flaming Pear" and inside it will be Lunarcell. Click on it and profit.

 

[acesax23]

There's none! maybe its because of Operating System Bit. isn't?

 

[IgnoreThisBarrel]

I don't know. What directory do you have the Lunarcell files installed in (relative to the Photoshop directory)?

 

[acesax23]

I've made a new folder in my desktop. there , the lunar cell.

 

[IgnoreThisBarrel]

Oh, you have to put the Lunarcell folder in PhotoshopDirectory\Plug-Ins\Filters

I think this is a great idea.

Edit: Felt I should contribute.

Hey , Tell everyone that this may not work because it only depends your OS. this only work in 180 bit. (i only got 64)

 

[jedidia]

As far as I know, there's no person on this world having a 180 bits OS (and since the square root of 180 is 13.416aso I doubt there ever will be). So there's got to be some mistake on your end. Could you please post the EXACT error message you are getting?

The link does work, you just have to reload the page.

Here's how to do it.
1. Open link.
2. Click your address bar so your text-selector cursor is on the address.
3. Press enter.

Still doesn't work by just plain clicking on it.

You still have to press enter once the address bar is selected.
