Simple Chrome Effect.

[ShadowyOne]

I think I remember how to do this. Okay, here's a simple, nice, and smooth chrome effect.

1. Open up Photoshop (no ****, Sherlock...j/k)
2. Any sized image will do (I used 400 x 100 though).
3. Fill it in with any color you want.
4. Place three lens flares anywhere on the image (space it out).
5. Go to Filter > Sketch > Chrome.
6. Go to Filer > Liquify.
7. Play around with the settings (Warp Tool) to make it look smooth.
8. Add Lighting Effects (Nitro's suggestion...this is optional by the way).

And there you have it. As Nitro would say,"Add borders to make it look sharp ".

That was an old image I did some time ago. I could do a better one, and I will if I have time.

Yeah, I think that would be a good step too. I added it.
