The icon is gorgeous and the tutorial is easy to follow. :) Unfortunately I have gimp and can't use it, but still - gorgeous.

[And yay for Heroes!]

Awesome icons. I love the fire effect in Peter's hand.

Which version of Elements do you have? I have version 3 and I don't think I have Color Balance.
