    Help with "Car busting through paper" image?

    Cropping photos in Photoshop

    Step 1: I used Quick Mask to select the family. You can use Pen Tool or Lasso Tool but I find Quick Mask easy & quick. To use Quick Mask, press Q or click the button at the bottom of the Toolbox, shaped like [O]. When you click this, the colors go back to the Default Foreground & Background...

    Cropping photos in Photoshop

    Hey, sorry for the absence. I'll just post them up. :) I removed the red background rather badly, to be honest. Did it in like 40 seconds haha. As for the white stroke, that's an adjustment layer. Walk-through in next post.

    Cropping photos in Photoshop

    iDad got it right, but I was actually thinking of something like this : Added the white BG to show shadow. I have screen shots of how I made this, in case you can't figure it out yourself. So if you want them, I'll post them up :) -DMB

    john lennon portrait

    Can't think of any exclusive comment than the other already given here. Good job! Looking forward to more. Maybe Janis Joplin? :D P.S: Put some details. What equipment (tablet), time take, reference (if any), etc etc. It'll be nice to know how you did it. Thanks :)

    Cropping photos in Photoshop

    You could also give a white stroke to the family, & then give a slight blurred drop shadow. Will make it look like a sticker. That will definitely pop-out.

    Halloween chops? before and after

    Na'vi, skull, zombie, cracked face are the most common. Say, someone do a Alma or Samara or Kayako photo manipulation. Little girl ghost are the creepiest! :eek: (F.E.A.R , The Ring & Grudge)

    Make my image an vector format?

    Hehe cheeky. I tried it out. Doesn't give 100% perfect results on a non-monotone / solid image. But does a lot of work. Thanks for the info. :)

    Cropping photos in Photoshop

    You want to make a crop right? That means you want some parts to be deleted. (just making sure I am getting you). Okay, so what you do is : ° 1st, make a copy of the original. Always the 1st thing to do in any photshopping/manipulation work. ° Make a selection. Of any shape. Marquee tool, lasso...

    Oh that's really nice work! Didn't look photoshopped at all at 1st glance. But now that you mention it...maybe you should add a bit of shadow underneath the pilot glasses. Lol jk. Keep it up :)

    Poll What Browser Are You Currently Running?

    Firefox. Stopped using IE ever since I found the fox. Lags a lot. Never used Opera or Safari. Hate Chrome. Too minimalistic for my taste.
