Does anyone use filters e.g star filters or centre spot and have any samples they can post for me to have a look at the different effects?

I only used once of those, but I find that they degrade too much quality of the lens and rather do the effects on photoshop, much more control that you have there.

What Yi-P said, although some of the neutral density graded filters can be useful for controlling the brightness of the sky.

I've had a UV filter on my 70-200 since day one, i think it's a cheapo, will this affect images at all?? Never thought about it..

Yes, it will affect it, but it might be ok, depending on whether it's acceptable to you.
