The 512x512, 32-bit originals are here

Nice firestorm, Firestorm

Thanks for sharing them.

Thanks Firstorm,

I've been looking for just such a thing.
What program did you use to make them?

Thanks for the comments

I made the textures with Gimp 2.2.7, though the technique should work on any version of the software. I started with a solid orange background, then on a new layer rendered clouds (solid noise) with a detail level of 15, turbulence, and seamlesness turned on, and set the layer to "grain extract", which left me with the basic lava texture. I then took it to Photoplus 6 (another free editor), because I like its waves filter, then brought it back to Gimp and made it seamless again. The second texture is the same as the first one, with a little gamma and contrast correction.

It shouldn't be too hard to modify the process slightly and also get a nice piece of lightning, too

i wish, I were as well as you at texture-creating......thx for contribution

Thanks they look very good. Also thanks for the brief explanation on how you did it. Now will have to try a few myself

Thanks, these will look good on my water bumps that you can find here:

and with some particles that act like bubbles bursting, it'll be perfect!

Look good - thanks for the explanation as well.
