Nice tutorial, but you should consider changing the word “Planents” in the title image… Just FYI

I am probably definitely missing something but where is the tutorial? I am not seeing it on this page. All I see are the examples, which are awesome by the way.

Very useful thanks. A question though – when I get to the final step of changing from rectilinear to polar, I get a message saying my PC doesn’t have enough RAM (I have 2G). This happens even if I reduce the quality of the image. Do you know how much RAM is generally required?

A further question for techies:
Does it help to have a video card with onboard RAM when it comes to processing (still) digital images? In other words, if I had a video card with RAM, would it help get over the problem of my PC not having sufficent RAM to make little planets?

I truly appreciate blogs like these that not only provides details just to sell their product but also offers data that is practically valuable to the people who are concerned.
