can you mimic this effect? photshop question.

Hi there,
I'm trying to mimic the effect of the "rays of light" behind the logo on the packaging of the box in the following image:

Any idea how to pull this off? I tried making a large brush that fades in steps (im using photoshop 6), but im not pulling off the effect that great unless im doing it wrong? any suggestions?

praise in advance

Let's assume Photoshophere, shall we?

1. select a circle
2. fill it with white
3.deselect
4.Filters>Distort>Polar Coordinates- Polar to Rectangular
5.Image>Rotate Canvas>90 deg. CW
6.Filters>Stylize>Wind
7....and play with it a little bit...
8.Image>Rotate Canvas>90 deg. CCW
9.Filters>Distort>Polar Coordinates- Rectangular to Polar
10. Try duplicating the layer and playing with it..

something like that?
