New sig?

This isn't much, but I did this in photoshop today:





I did this in about 30-40 minutes? I don't have much time for photoshop on fridays or thursdays, as on those days I skip lunch and help with filming, video editing, and interviewing for our school news program.

Also remember, our computers have PS7, and is limited to all original filters and tools, so I didn't have and special brushes or renders to use. The flashiest thing it has is the background pattern you see now.

Tell me what you think for one of my first few attempts at making anything.

When my skills get a little bit better, I will end up spending more than 30 minutes making a siggy. I just have really understood the god-like ability of muiltiple layers to edit images.

I guess it's good for PS7, but I don't really like the background or the shadows.

5/10.

The shadows around Corgan I couldn't help. I don't know a way to get rid of them. Maybe the Sharpen tool?

They way the pictures came about, of course, we through magnetic lasso around the image in one window, and brought into the sig window via another layer, and the shadows just stayed there. I thought once the pattern was put into place, it wouldn't really show up.

Remember, I don't have any extra renders or other filters. the only renders on our PS7s are "cloud"s, and all other filters are crap.

Blur is your best friend in photoshop.

We got PS8 along with a bunch of new computers at school.

I fianly found out a good use for blur-

Recently I have gotten into Gunslinger Girl, and I have been trying to take pictures of Henrietta and scale her, and create my own shrapnel coming from the tip of her gun. I browsed some "render" site, and found out its easy to create that effect.

Took me a while to find out that there is 80+ brushes and 80+ blur tools.

Also, about a Autodesk Render Civil 3D, is this how you create the "renders' people talk about using in their sigs?

Take your lasso around the object, their is something like expand/shrink from one of the dropdowns, put in something like 0.02 and it should either tighten the lasso area or widen it. After this do invert and delete. it should get rid of the shadow if this is what you want.


God this is hard to expalin when your drunk.

Eh, still got rid of it. I'm going to change my name back to Pains and tomorrow, or during the next week, I'm going to make a new sig. Learned some new stuff on PS.

We have a render program that i'm going to try out. Still going to base it on the Smashing Pumpkins, though.

Wait.. who are you again?
