I was wondering how people got this effect like in this banner..

The small text or whatever it is under Lee Sungmin? Do you just zoom in alot and write stuff? Or is that a brush?? Lol sorry if its a dumb question >_<

(banner credits to Dukkey_Yung . Hope you don't mind that i used it )

It's a brush. If you can't find it anywhere, you can just make your own, like you said, by zooming and writing stuff.

Hope that helped

Can someone please help me?
My PS has been acting crazy since yesterday.
The text..when I type any...the size is way larger than what I put.
For example..A size 6 is like 72..something like that.

O_o I posted this in the wrong section, didn't I?

O_O mine's the EXACT opposite O_O and it happened today O_O T_T
whenever I put my size to 24 is shows like a .5 size O_O

Change your resolution to 72

[**ThatGirlPhuong]

I've tried out filtering many times, using distort-twirl or wave but my effect doesn't exactly turn out that great.
The filters are done on another layer then pulled over before changing the blending mode right?
But how you get like, so many of the swirls around?
I pull quite a few layers which has been swirled into different directions, but whenever I change the blend mode, only the bigger ones 'stays' on the graphic.
Is there something wrong with my method?
Also, I can get 'white' swirls..
Is the colour caused by the texture?

Sorry for so many questions *_*

*late response lol*
O_O lol hey mui, I reused the same texture I had over and over again, copy, paste, filter, and made it twirl around the faces (and I also erase some of the layers if it overlaps their faces). The white however is from the texture I used. For the second graphic, I think i used more then one texture for that. and what do you mean by the bigger one stays on the graphics? Anyways, mui, you shouldn't follow my method exactly, play with it a little and you may even getting something better then my results! Good luck

Gah omg. thankyou. lol.
I do what you've said..
But somethings like when I filter, and change the opacity or blend mode, the swirl fades right?
And only the biggest circle of all stays the most obvious, while the smaller swirls fade.
To get those strong obvious swirls, its gonna need alot of layers I guess.
Thanks alot!!

[merciiii]

Hello guys! I've been here a lot but I never commented here. I want to thank all the people who contrabuted (sp) to this thread.

A little advice to new psers; If you have trouble blending and texturing, its nothing we can do that can REALLY help you, cause I've been there. >___< I don't know why but looking at tutorials of texturing confused me EVEN more. so I messed around with photoshop and eventually learned to kind of get the feel of it. -0- whoa. okay but I have a few questions.

How do you make titles like those? The clear transparent colored thing by the subtexts and the transparent backround. Do you start OFF with a transparent backround or what? A tutorial would be nice.

Many thanks.

The bar where the subtext is on, is what I'm assuming you're talking about. iridescent either chose her colors or used a blue and lowered the opacity level of it. The transparent background, she just started out with a transparent background. If you still don't understand, I'll or someone else, will make you a tutorial.

I've a problem is that..
Even when the canvas is transparent, when it's saved there will be a white background...
How do I get it like her effect?

[<3KIMZ<3]

^ u should save it as a gif because if u save it as a jpeg, then the background will turn white.

[*_Milia]

Hey Guys-

I understand. But when you make that line thing, do you make a rectangular marquee and 'fill' it with a color, than lower the opacity? Or... nevermind. -0- I think I get it. Thank you!

another question


cred to blue giraffe.

Does anybody know how to make those two curved lines that kind of circles the image?

[**ThatGirlPhuong]

That person may have used the pen tool or a brush...

If you know how to use the pen tool, it's a matter of clicking out your path, then stroking it with the appropriate brush. I find that many people find the pen tool too 'difficult' to understand and use, so try to find easier ways to do things. In the end, they miss out on a huge chunk of what Photoshop can do.

Draw out a vertical straight line/thin rectangle in whatever way is most comfortable for you. An example of how to do that would be to use the Rectangular Marquee tool to draw out a thin, tall rectangle, then fill it with whatever color on a new layer.
Free transform that layer, and while holding the Ctrl or Cmd key, click and drag the top right or left corner towards the center, until you get a sharp point at the top.
Then go into 'Filter>Distort>Shear' and play with the curvature to get the curves you want.

Create another curve by following the above steps on a new layer, then rotate it to match the flat end of the first curve.

I'm a little high, so this may not be totally clear.
Let me know if you need visuals.

My highest recommendation would be to learn about the Pen tool, however.

LOL WTF, Jason... o_O

tee-hee, But anyways, that's how I do my curves too if I'm not using the pen.

[ginaz s t y l e]

I have couple of questions!

How do you change the color of your eye in the pics?
How do you change the color of your hair?
How do you make your lips look shiny like you have lip gloss on?


LOL, thanks guys! I don't know how. T__T
