Hi guys & girls!

This is really driving me crazy and I can`t figure it out...

Now to the problem, I`m trying to create depth in my backgrounds with a very large brush or a radial gradient and this is the result I keep getting -> http://img13.imageshack.us/f/radialgradient.png/ and it just looks very ugly and not smooth at all. I`ve seen alot of people doing the same, maybe not the same technique but the result is a whole lot better and looks nice, mine just look bad, very bad. I`ve tried both 8bit and 16bit but there is no difference. Is this supposed to be the result? How is people making those nice backgrounds then? :)

Thanks!

It might be worth to mention that the size of the brush or radial gradient doesn`t matter, the result is the same. B-a-d.

Try working in 16 bit mode.

There is no difference. Increasing DPI doesnt change a thing either.

Filter - Distort - Shear maybe this could help
