Space Backgrounds for Scratch OS's

I have learned some pretty neat special effects recently. I have made some backgrounds that would work well with a Scratch OS. If you want to use any of these, you may.

I will maybe accept some requests.

Can you make me some that look like a star exploding? I'm making a OS called Starburst, and these are awesome.

Before adding the texture, give it the "lens" effect.

filters > light and shadow > apply lens

Here is your MRN with a sun btw:

Heh heh...

NO.

Your atmosphere is in the wrong place too. Notice the edge stands out.

Here is Red Neptune with the sun in a different place:
