My Board

i followed another tutorial today [url=\"http://www.good-tutorials.com/track/1450\"]http://www.good-tutorials.com/track/1450[/url] to create this, although the tut did miss out some key information that would have saved me time making this (as a complete beginner). anyway , it turned out really well and was soooo simple, surely photoshop shouldnt be so simple?

i went to redo this tutorial, and could no longer find it on good-tutorials.com, even through searching. if anyone would like to try this link, you need to go to www.n-sane.net >photoshop tutorials> guest tutorials (shocking text tutorial). or , if you would like the link, it is [url=\"http://n-sane.net/guest_tutorials/shocking_text/index.php\"]http://n-sane.net/guest_tutorials/shocking_text/index.php[/url] they have some pretty neat tutorials there, but if you have any problems following the tutorials, please feel free to email me.

Good Job /good.gif\' class=\'bbc_emoticon\' alt=\'(Y)\' />

I like all of your works! I hope we'll be seeing you in the banner competitions soon (or are you already in them, I havent seen you there anyway, sorry if Im wrong).

PS: Good luck on the layout!

Adrasteia has entered almost every week or every couple of weeks lol.

i entered two this week to make up for chickening out of the last one lol
here are some variations on the text. i applied it to a background made using exiles string tutorial, and using different overlays - normal, overlay and color burn. i thought the effects were interesting so ive posted them here /smile.gif\' class=\'bbc_emoticon\' alt=\':)\' />
Nem

Looking great.. especially the blue ones <3.

Very nice effect /good.gif\' class=\'bbc_emoticon\' alt=\'(Y)\' />

PS.: That\'s the way to learn a lot from tutorials, trying your own things /bigwink.gif\' class=\'bbc_emoticon\' alt=\';)\' />

thanks tibs, from what ive figured out so far, the best way to come out with something good is a whole lot of layers, a dollop of fiddling about mixed together with a whole lotta patience. i'm still trying to come up with a website layout, i think i might be missing one of the above ingredients.
can anyone guess which? /bigwink.gif\' class=\'bbc_emoticon\' alt=\';)\' />
Nem

Making a website template can be tough, you've really got to be patient as you said. To get the best possible result you can, you've got to want it and be willing to put the time in to achieve it. /smile.gif\' class=\'bbc_emoticon\' alt=\':)\' />.. hope that makes sense.
