How To Make A Planet

Here is my tutorial on how to create a very basic planet in photoshop.
I am not saying this is the only way to do it or the right way. But this is my way.
If anyone is interested in the process of making it a transparent png, like the ones I post (Takes a few extra steps)
Let me know and I will make one.

If I missed anything or you have another way of doing something, let me know. I would be interested in seeing other techniques.
