http://www.185vfx.com/megiddo/mini/lava-table.jpg - This picture tells me that you should just draw a yellow stream and add little black islands on it that are slowly fading into the lava, but you should keep the sharp edges on one side of the island though.
I just think that you just have one of those days when nothing works (like I do), try again tomorrow and maybe you get it better!
Also remember, lava flows SLOW, your lava stream seems more like fast-flowing... make more curvy and not so straight edges. If lava is higher from the ground, use some hilights or something....
Pff, thats my amature advise to you. I still hope it helps though... -------------
