    Thank you guys for the positive comments, it's really appreciated. :) I have a new thing I've just finished (I think? I want to stop tinkering with it, anyway!) My first attempt at digitally painting a made-up face. Based on the two-tone shaded character drawing above.

    Need advice of how to make the effect in an example image

    It's not just your phone, actually - I'm viewing on desktop PC in Firefox, and I can't see the grid either. This whole thread has had me confused! :lol:

    anyone can advise how can i get this effect?

    Okay, I've done this really quickly, so it's not perfect, but it should get you started. I'm working in CS2, which is very old, but everything should work the same in later versions. I'm also working with a graphics tablet, which makes everything much easier and tidier - I think the artist of...

    anyone can advise how can i get this effect?

    You can do that by using a very large, soft blurry brush to make the shape, then erasing the bits you don't want. Either by using a hard brush with the erase tool, or drawing a mask with the lasso tool and pressing backspace to delete the area within the mask. I can do you some screenshots...

    CS2 Dialogue boxes and canvases disappearing

    Thanks again for all the advice, guys. A brief update: I have been working in CS2 today, monitoring memory usage, changing the settings that MrTom suggested - no joy. It's still glitching, and apparently getting randomly worse or better without much input from me at all! Memory usage is not...

    CS2 Dialogue boxes and canvases disappearing

    Yes indeed - I'm in the process of testing all this now. The tablet was a gift from my hubby and sister, and until now has served me very well. However, I do agree that it might not be the best product - I hardly see any other artists saying they use them, it's usually Wacom I hear about. I...

    CS2 Dialogue boxes and canvases disappearing

    Ah - my Trust tablet is about 5 years old, and after the Win 10 upgrade, the original drivers were no longer working properly (pressure sensitive brushes not loading in PS), so I downloaded the latest I could get hold of from Trust's website - for Win8. These seem to work fine, but it stands to...

    Recreating an invitation.

    Hi Liam, Firstly congrats on your engagement. :) I think there are a few things I could say to help here, but it must be remembered that I am new to this site, and also I am using a very old version of photoshop. Most things should function in the same way, but others may have more up to date...

    CS2 Dialogue boxes and canvases disappearing

    Excellent - lots to do today then. ;) Interesting point here, as it never occurred to me to mention I don't actually have Flash installed at all. (You mean Flash Player, right? The one that allows certain web content to be viewed.) I recently read it was massively insecure, so haven't wanted...

    CS2 Dialogue boxes and canvases disappearing

    Not at all, that's great, thank you so much! I had been thinking it could be a memory issue, but I don't have the detailed knowledge to know for sure or properly test this out. Everything you've said makes sense, though. If I could just double check: All the memory settings and changes you've...

    Hi guys, I've not been here long, but after a warm welcome I feel happy posting this for you all. Looking around I can see a friendly community that thrives on sharing ideas, helping others and praising achievements, which is really lovely to find. I mostly paint and draw, as I've said...

    Most kind. :) I don't watch Corry, but hubby and I are making our way through the entire box set of How I Met Your Mother, amongst other shows. So I shall go and do that. Please don't let me interrupt your Corry watching, however. ;)

    CS2 Dialogue boxes and canvases disappearing

    Hey, thanks for that! I'll certainly be curious to see what your results are. Mine is a fresh installation also - It did take a good two hours or more of use before glitching for me, the last time. I don't have any third party addons installed, just the default CS2 - it's actually the download...

    CS2 Dialogue boxes and canvases disappearing

    Hi there, Since I started using Photoshop CS2 in Windows 10, this glitch has started occurring after working in the program for some time - anything from 10 minutes to 2 hours. (It is much improved after I reinstalled CS2 in its own directory on my C: drive, instead of in the program files, but...
