Description
I found that my previous space wallpaper, Life, was a little dull and that the elements didn't have enough contrast with each other, so I created this amazing wallpaper that is almost perfect in every way.___
Download includes wallpapers for Standard and HD Widescreen resolutions, although it is optimized for widescreen resolutions.
Like most of my creations, everything is created from scratch using Photoshop, except for the nebula which is created in Apophysis.
Please
if you download, use or like it. Comments are also appreciated!Enjoy!

i disagree with stoned-hippo. the nebula looks like it's expanding and growing, it looks 3D enough 
i love it, and think its the same high quality your other space wallpapers are

Thanks for taking the time to comment. So do you think I should remove the comets, re-place them or just leave it as-is?

hmm, i'd suggest taking them out, or make them look a little more like comets

It's not perfect. The nebula looks flat, there aren't enough stars, and the planets' light source seems to be totally random. The little comets on the left don't look real. The composition is nice, apart from the comets, and the colours look sleek, though.

I'm really glad that someone took the time to make a critique.
Of course it's not perfect, nothing is perfect.
Making a deep, not-flat nebula using fractal is very hard. If you have any suggestions there, I would be very glad to here them.
As for the light source, I guess I could have shown a little more light in the background, close to the edge on the bottom left to show that there is another source.
The "comets" on the left were actually spaceship trails. However, I can understand the misconception of it. Do you think I should remove them or change their position so they look like actual comets?

I find the "aren't enough stars" comment funny.
Space is unpredictable, there are a few places in the sky where you won't see a lot of stars, and around some nebulae as well. The star field is nice.
I don't find the nebula flat, but looks to be expanding.
I do agree on the planets sources of light. I understand the larger planet because there's something on the other side of it, (the "flarey" looking cloud going around it) but the other two... I don't get.
Still, it looks pretty good.

Thanks for the comment. The reason that the other two planets have a light reflecting on the atmosphere from both sides is basicly because I used the same atmosphere on all the planets and tweaked them a little. I thought of removing one side, but I found that it adds a nice effect to the planet, and that the light surrounding it would explain why the atmosphere is like that. Do you think I should remove one of their atmosphere lights?

You know, I can't honestly answer that. It's your project, you do what you believe is the best look.
I can only give an advise about if you wanted to go for realism of lighting in this concept. You should remove one of the lightings on the smaller planets, and dim the other side of the larger planet. Keep the light, just make it more weak.
But you're right, It makes a nice effect, looks cool. Another thing you could do is just upload a separate version. Maybe make it a different color then retouch the atmospheres.
Whatever your decision, good job, friend.

This is awesome! I love it!
But it looks like you recycled the texture for the planet on the moon.
