Yet another technique that I've had good luck with is to create a repeating vertical gradient across the window and then convert it to polar coordinates. For example: 1. Select the Black & White Gradient 2. In the Gradient Tool Dialog select: 2.1 Custom Gradient 2.2 Linear (or bi-linear) 2.3 Sawtooth or Triangular repeats 3. Click and drag in the image window to get as many stripes as you want rays. Make sure the stripes run vertically. 4. Image/Filters/Distorts/Polar Coords Presto! Raidal rays.
