Ten Second Planet Creation with the GIMP

Here's another one of those great, hidden in plain sight features of the GIMP in case you missed it...

Step 1: Filters > Render > Sphere Designer
Step 2: Fiddle.
Step 3: Press Ok. Voila! Your own planet. Well, maybe it took more like twenty seconds because of the rendering time. Now make a star field layer with Filters > Noise > HSV Noise and own it with a Halo or Trek font...Grab your preferred intoxicant, put on the Floyd, and make like a Magrathean!
