Title: A Beginner's Photoshop Stuff @.@"
Post by: Ying Hua on July 24 2006, 06:21 pm
I've spent a few weekends playing with my new photoshop, and these are pretty much the results... they're not good, but it's the best I can do for now.

A couple of CCS sets:

TRC sets

Yup... They really lack effects but nevertheless, they're pretty good! ^_^ Start from the picture selection to the borders XD (btw, where did you get the pictures ?XD) I like the Sakura pic best but Syaoran set makes me all gooey... X)

Exploring Photoshop is your next objective and try to use brushes too.. There are a heap of them ready to be downloaded on the net... Any help on brushes, feel free to PMĀ  me ^_^

Anyways, your reward *cookie* :)

Edit: You now have more cookies than me O.o X) Good for you XP

oh gee.. *checks cookies* You're right... ^^;; thanks a lot! Yeah, I was havng some trouble on brushes. @__@;;

The pictures... the pic on the first CCS set was from a wallpaper I found ages ago, I just can't remember where I got it... The second pic was a fanart from somewhere in DeviantART, I just came across it when I was browsing.

The TRC pics, all except for the 2nd and 3rd, came from Clow Legacy (http://www.tsubasachronicle.net). ^__^ The 2nd and 3rd's pics were from my scanslations.

Yup! I already added you to my sig, couz XD

Here's another tip for PS: Try to use Filter effects. That might help :D

Post by: Ying Hua on July 25 2006, 09:10 pm
I used filter effects on the last two. The Syaoran ones. XD

EDIT

ne, made a few new ones

You make good graphics :) The next step would be altering the color.. (Color Replacement Tool).. Like from the previous posts, this is just a tip :wink:

Love the effects...but yeah...I think they need more itsy-bitsy bits of decorations here and there... try using textures...they can either soften or sharpen the images to give more effect...
