Photoshop Tutorials and Requests
Updated Index
(2008.05.09)



I just spent hours skimming over 100 pages of this forum to do this because I saw that the first post hadnt been updated for over a year. I listed everything that looked and smelled like a tutorial. I would categorize them, but let me repeat: I just spent hours skimming over 100 pages of this forum.

Those in BOLD are generalized tutorials prepared by members who had time on their hands. Those in italics are links to off-site tutorials. The rest are tutorial-like responses to requests in this thread. You may have to scroll up or down the linked page if it doesn't take you directly to the right post. Use your browsers Find (CTRL/CMD+F) tool to see if your question has already been answered, please.

Im guessing people will still repeatedly ask the same questions after a few pages. Im just hoping that they look before they do so.

I'm not too sure because I didn't do that tutorial. But, you may want to ask your question outside of this thread. It seems like a problem with the TMPGEnc, rather than with Photoshop.

HOW do you put text on a picture?!

*don'tkillme*
warned you I'm a ps newbie.

Use the Text tool. It's the thing that looks like a T on the Tools palette on your left. You can go quickly to it by pressing "T" on your keyboard. If correct, it'll give you a cursor icon. Then, just drag a rectangular text box onto your image, or simply click once with your mouse. You can begin typing away.

Text options show up on the top toolbar to change font, size, etc.

I have a question for anyone that can answer.
Whenever I try to type text on ps, it won't come out!
The blinky thing where the text is suppsoed to come out of is almost invisible, and no matter how many times I change the font size, it doesn't help.
Does anyone know what this problem is?

Are you typing on the top layer? Sometimes you may have opened up a text layer below another obstructing layer. Or are you typing in a visible color? Also, make sure that the Text tool is set to type regular text. If you're typing as a layer mask, it may not show up like you think.

Let us know if these aren't the issues.

omg, Tailo you are so awesome for taking the time to make an updated index of tutorials.
we need to get jason to update his post with the new links... otherwise people are STILL going to ask the same questions over and over.


anyway, i have a quick question, though it's not entirely to do with photoshop.
i've made a gif with two digital images and tweened the frames in between - not a problem.
saved it blah blah blah the usual - not a problem.
previewed it - not a problem
but then after i upload it, the image is full of red dots that fade in and out as the animation progresses. i've tried changing everything, like the dithering, lossiness and colours but every time the gif gets uploaded, it messes up. can anyone explain why?

Thnx Tailo for all the awesome links <3
I have a stupid question that I'm dying to ask xD
like when I'm making a banner. I got the base and the filtering ready and everything.
but the part I'm having trouble is the picture, I just can't make it look like it belongs in the banner.
and I am absoulutely hopeless at blending. I tried the blending tutorials, but they were for 2 ppl. Can anyone explain to me how to make a picture belong in the banner?
I don't think this kind of question was asked before x_X

Can you show an example of the red dots? Some times when you create an image, some colors won't be compatible for web use. But if you're using Save Optimized As or Save for Web, it shouldn't matter. I've only recently started getting more into GIF making, so the color issue is the only one I can think of right now.

Kula_x <33

At times, whether or not you blend the image into the background image, it'll look 'off' because of the coloring. This means that if your image (top layer in your case) doesn't have matching colors with the rest of the banner that you're making, it won't look right, even if you've done any or all of the blending tutorials here.

Just for example, if the background is somewhat "dreamy" in terms of coloring (e.g., pastels) but the foreground is very crisp (e.g., bold colors), then it may or may not work. Try to play with the coloring of your image that you're trying to fit into the banner. If that still doesn't work, we may be able to suggest other techniques.

@ jasonyc: LOLOLOLOLOL!

Anyways, here's a tut for the icons in my siggy and avatar

How to turn into

1. Open up your image. Mine is of course our lovely smexy FT-Boys

2. Crop, resize, etc. This is what i ended up with Click

3. Duplicate the layer 2 times (Press Ctrl + J twice).

4. Set both layers onto Soft Light. This is what i got Click

5. Now go to Layer > New Adjustment Layer > Color Balance and set as follows

Cyan: -40
Magenta: -50
Yellow: -40

6. Now go to Layer > New Adjustment Layer > Selective Color and set as follows

Red:
Cyan: -100
Magenta: 0
Yellow: -30
Black: 0

Yellow:
Cyan: -100
Magenta: 0
Yellow: 100
Black: 0

Blue:
Cyan: 100
Magenta: 0
Yellow: -100
Black: 0

Neutral:
Cyan: 30
Magenta: -35
Yellow: -30
Black: 5

7. Now go to Layer > New Adjustment Layer > Color Balance and set as follows

Cyan: -20
Magenta: 40
Yellow: 30

8. Merge all together (Press Shift + Ctrl + E)

9. Now go to Filter > Sharpen > Sharpen

10. And this is what you end up with.



Viola! You're done!

tailo. thanks haha.

i found this with your new updated list


simple gif:
QUOTE(jasonyc @ Nov 8 2006, 02:48 AM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}>
Create 3 (or how many ever images you want to use) layers with each of the pictures on its own layer.
Make sure they're all placed where you want them to be.
Send the file to ImageReady ('File>Edit in ImageReady').
While in image ready, turn off two of the layers for the first frame.
Then add a new frame, and turn off two other layers.
Each new frame should contain only one image layer visible.
Then you can go back and add tweens between the images.



yeaah x_x, sorry; COMPLETE newbie on photoshop. i just got it today. what do you mean by layers and how to do that? again sorry don't kill me :x

edit--
