how do you do the colorings on the icons??like how do you divide the picture into sections the coloring it

example

I think she just used a texture and lowered the opacity to get the coloring.
You can also use the marquee tool to select where you want the coloring to be on the picture, add color, and lower the opacity.

and how to the dots on the picture, only a little bigger

example

thanks in advance^^

I have no idea how to make the circles, but you can find a ton of textures with those circles.

how do u get skin to be smooth like that? if you look at their skin, its smooth. but if i use the blur tool, its like...smudged looking, the clone tool doesnt give the same effect either. this one looks shiny and pretty.

and


how to get the lighting effect in this photo? the lighting is very sharp looking and it looks all "spring-y". i cant explain it. i hope i make at least a little bit of sense.

Hi guys. I was wondering if any of you saved shy-Love's FASHION DISASTER tutorial.
I PMed her but she no longer has it.
If you can give me the link, that would be great.

[SeLcaQueen]

Well what shy-love said could easily work for that o_O. But what I would do is make a new layer and go to image > apply image, then set a gaussian blur onto the layer by going to filter>blur>gaussian blur. (you can always adjust the amount of blurring you want) and then just erase the blurred layer with a hard round brush or just make a selection around the area you want blurred, by going to select > inverse and then click backspace. I hope I make sense O_O.

purplesoompi:Well for the first one, you can see that she/he cropped the icons from his/her wallpaper. And if you look at the wallpaper, you can the that the variation of color came from underlying layers of color (those two big strips of green and blue). So what he/she did I think was just had 3 regular icons colored in different ways, then put them onto the wallpaper and on top of a layer of colors. (in the wallpaper the colors are green and blue.) And then he/she just played with the icons opacity and and possibly belnding modes.

And for the second one, those dots are light textures. You can either find light textures that fit what you;re looking for or try and make them yourself using round brushes and adjusting the scatter setting and blending settings. Again, I hope I make sense ._.

thanks! i'LL try this one too. but shy-Love's suggestions aLso work.
thanks again.

Please tell me ^^! And thank you so much.

[kneekey]

Yes there is.






I guess you want to know how to do it too.

Select the Type/Text tool and then open the Character palette. If it's not already visible, it can be found on the Options Bar (the top toolbar) all the way to the right (usually next to the Brushes tab). You should also be able to get it by going to Window > Character.

What you're looking for is the Paragraph palette, which is right behind the Character palette (Window > Paragraph). On the top portion of that palette there are 4 different "justified" options: Justified Left, Justified Center, Justified Right, and Justified All.

If you still can't find it, let us know.

thank you so much! you just saved my life

Urgent Question
Hello all...i just wanna ask how to make a picture that have small resolution into a big resolution (for printing purpose) without leaving any blur or pixelate or unfocus? or did anyone of you know the tutorial for it?
maybe it sounds impossible making a small resolution picture into bigger, but, i ever saw my 3 meters of shinhwa banner using a small shinhwa's picture source for it. and it looks real, i mean, there is no blur, pixelate or unfocus.

i ask this for my college project. i have to print this and that minimum into a3 papersize. it is difficult for me if the source is smaller than a3 even a4. but i must print it. so, i guess maybe there some solution in my question. because i really, really, really wondering how to..

please, if you know how to, tell me a.s.a.p

thanks alot!

Okay, Well,
I don't understand how to upload fonts I've downloaded, onto Adobe.
Okay, so I downloaded it, but some are 'TrueTypeFont' Files, And when I try to upload them,
Adobe says it's not the right file or it's not compatible or something of that sort.
And then there's files where I have to extract them, so I do,
But then it still doesn't work. I just don't get it.

Fonts aren't installed directly into Photoshop.
Photoshop will access the fonts installed on your system.
Drag and drop the fonts into 'C:\Windows\Fonts' (Windows) or 'User>Library>Fonts' (Mac).
Restart Photoshop.

Note:
If the downloaded font is 'Zipped' (ends in .zip file extension), unzip it using whatever unzipping program you have (Windows XP and up have one built in), then drag the resulting font file (xxxx.ttf) to the designated font folder.

HELP!!!

im pretty good at doing photoshop but then i hate how my pic comes out
like it's not the same like when im making it

for an example


how do i get rid of tat and make it look smooth after i save it???

plzz help!

How are you saving the file?
The 'banding' that's occurring in your photo is usually caused by a low quality setting when saving.
I generally keep the quality setting around 8 for small web images, and 10 or above for high res stuff.
And 12 for anything I'm going to print.

No one would bother with high resolution images if we could all easily do what you're trying to do.
The truth is, it really depends on the resolution of your starting image, and the desired resolution of your final image.
You can usually get away with some 'up-sampling' (making the native resolution of the image higher) in Photoshop, but to a trained eye, it's most likely going to be obvious.

With that said, there are plugins (well, one I know of, anyway) that increases Photoshop's ability to up-sample by a very large margin.
The program is called 'Blow Up' by a company called Alien Skin (Google it).
The plug in will set you back $200, but they do offer a limited demo version (although I believe it leaves a 'watermark' on the end product).

There are also some fine up-sampling tutorials (as well as general resizing info) for Photoshop all over the internet.

But hey, if it's seriously that important, $200 shouldn't be so hard to part with.
After all, you did drop $600 on Photoshop.

Oh...thanks you jasonyc for your answer..

well i wanna read and understand it first then i'll try it.

thanks alot!

hye everyone..I'm in need of some help here. I used photoshop 7 before..and I just installes PS CS.

Everything is good so far except one thing that is bugging me. In the layers palette..normally we have 2 boxes that we can check. One is the one with the eye that indicates the visibility and the other one is the one with the paper clip so that we can choose which layer we want to work with. But in the version that I installed, i only have the eye box and no paper clip.

Can you guys tell me how do I make appear the paper clip boxes??
Thanks a lot

sorry I have to quote my own post..

Can you give a screen-shot of what paper clip you're talking about, or maybe where it should be? On my Photoshop 7.0 there are 2 boxes indeed. The first box has one function: "Indicates layer visibility." The second box has two functions: if the brush tip is showing, it "Indicates painting on layer or layer mask," and if it's empty or has a chain-link, then it "Indicates if the layer is linked". Hover the mouse over it to see where I'm getting these quotes from.

I have both PS 7.0 and PS CS on my computer (for some reason still) and both layer palettes look alike. Please give a more vivid example so we can see what you're talking about.

I was wondering the same thing.
Maybe the OP is confusing MS Word with PS...
Famous paper clip in that program.
