Start a [b]New [/b]\'Canvas\' with the following settings Width:800 Hight:600 Resolution:300 Colour Mode: RGB Colour [ 8bit ] Background Contents: White Once you have your page open, make sure that the foreground colour is [b]black[/b] and the background colour is [b]white[/b].. you can do this by pressing [b]D[/b]. [attachment=1875:attachment] Once you have a blank white canvas and your colours are set, then go to Filter[b]>[/b]Render[b]>[/b]Clouds. [attachment=1876:attachment] Once you have done that your canvas should have been filled with black/white and gray looking clouds. The Next step is to go Filter[b]>[/b]Render[b]>[/b]Lighting Effects. ans use the same settings as in the image below. (Dont forget to stretch out the size of the omni light) [attachment=1877:attachment] [attachment=1878:attachment] The final step to creating almost photo realistic clouds is inverting the colour... this can be done by just going [b]CTRL+I[/b] or you can go, Image[b]>[/b]adjustments[b]>[/b]Invert. If you have done all of this properly you should get something like the image below. You can use the cloud if you are making a postcard or something similar, a very simple yet very eye pleasing effect. [attachment=1879:attachment]
