So Furball's having a new little contest with coloring her hedgie. This isn't the picture she has the contest set around, but this pic that she posted was very unpolished, which gave me a good excuse to clean the lines up and give it a nice coat of color and a spiffy background.
(Background credits go to this great tutorial: http://www.greycobra.com/tutorials/.....ll/page-1.html Very easy to use and apply to pictures..at least in the backgrounds..gotta figure out how to fit it around characters since it takes color adjustment layers..)
Anyways, if we're allowed to offer up names, mine'd be "Phyre"

Did you follow the link to the tutorial in the picture's description? It's actually pretty easy.
First make a new document (it can be small) and fill it with black.
Make a new color balance adjustment layer (Layer - Adjustment - Color Balance), click ok.
In the new window that pops up, switch over to highlights (make sure the "preserve luminosity" tab is checked), and set the three numbers at the top to +100, -18, -97.
Make a new layer between the black layer and color balance layer, and with a 100 pixel brush with 0% hardness (Paintbrush works) make a dot with white near the middle.
(You'll end up with a white middle, with red glowy outer ring)
Then use the smudge tool with one of the textured brushes (30-50 pressure) to smear the edges into the shape of the fireball starting from the white middle at first, then work the orange edge out and in till you get the right shape and texture.
Hope that helps!

*nods* Unfortunatly you don't get the same effect with just the balls as you do with the color balance. It's extra work, and I'm far from familiar with playing with those sort of things on my own.. You get the best results for this sort of thing by following that tutorial. I'm sure there are ways to get blues and whatnot by playing with the layer's settings after the fact.
