Adjust the levels but instead of the one setting at 100, make it 120 (You do not have to adjust the levels again, it is a optional adjustment). Then adjust the brightness/contrast with settings [Brightness: 0, Contrast: 15-30].

Techno Tutorial: Final Result

Throughout the whole process of making this techno blur, there are many cool effects, and one of my favourite is step # 3. You could stop the tutorial at the end of step # 3 and use that as circuits inside of a computer. There are many outcomes to this tutorial. You can use it in Sigs, computer images (circuits), in headers, banners, 88x31 links to advertise your website and there are many other possibilities. There are many possibilities for this tutorial. I hope you enjoyed it.
