Time Warp Effect

Step 1 First, again, you want to create a blank image, with a white background.
Step 2 Press "D" to reset the colors to: Foreground - Black and Background - White.
Step 3 Next, go Filter > Render > Difference Clouds like so:
You should have something like the following:
Step 4 We have the basic texture for the image, now we need it to look more like a warp or a vortex. For that we need to go Filter > Blur > Radial Blur and use these settings:
Amount: 40
Blur Method: Zoom
Quality: Good
You should now have something like the following:


Step 5 It needs color now, so go to Image > Adjustments > Hue/Saturation or press Ctrl+U to get to the Hue/Saturation dialogue box and adjust the settings to these, be sure to click Colorize first:
Hue: 90
Saturation: 50
Lightness: 0
There you are, you could always add a lens flare or change the colors, or even do some layer duplicating and/or blending to get a more complicated and in some cases a better-looking effect. But that all depends on what you are looking for in the final image. The final image should look something like this:


Remember: Some of the filters look different every time you use them, so you will not get the exact same result with this tutorial that I did. Feel free to change the settings for this tutorial, and send me your work!
