    A special painted effect...

    Don't hold your breath waiting for someone to post a "deconstruct" of Dragen's technique. First of all, it would only be an imitation, and secondly, it would be disrespectfull of Dragan as a fellow artist... If you are semi-adept at Photoshop, you too, will be able to visually deconstruct such...

    A special painted effect...

    Especially since you didn't even bother to save the website name when you saved the images to post and ask about. I too, suggest you simply post a link to the site, and remove the copyright images you are illegally posting...I think it is against PSG Terms of Service, but am not sure.

    bending objects

    It's a really good layout, but needs Color Management. The bluish red tones of the giraffe border do not get along with the warm golds of the lettering, nor the general color scheme of the performers. If you can tweak the tones of the background and lettering to better accentuate and...

    black net

    It's not that big of a deal. It just softens edges and puts a bit of a darkening effect on it. Here's an example using a commercial filter, which provides more consistent results than a stocking... Here's another that you can zoom in on to see how subtle the effect is. That's why it was so...

    black net

    No, no, Stoker, not fishnet stockings! Those were worn by the model! This technique involved stretching sheer black stockings over the lens, creating a darker diffuse effect. Think todays' "Soft Focus" effect, but without the brightness...Richard Avedon did some works with it, I believe.

    black net

    In today's digital world, you'd accomplish something similar by adriot usage of Gaussian Blur, diffuse glow, and adjusting Hue/Saturation brightness levels. It's not quite the same, but gets close enough for general purposes. Especially since "the old ways" of film manipulation are almost...

    I realized that the directions should have said to put a 1 Column, not 1 pixel line on the bottom...

    How to make a ruler?

    Mason, the link you provided gave some very good detailed directions on how to create a ruler. Regardless of how "friendly" the might not have seemed, they did answer your question in detail, even clarifying the 1 pixel line direction. The technique they gave you works quite well (I tried...

    Reducing images

    Lee, have you tried File>Automate>Fit Image, and then entering the size (in pixels) that you want?

    Creating this effect

    Part of "the Look" is achieved through the textures and contrasts. Notice the folds in fabrics such as the sikh's turban... Although the effect is not as dramatic without good contrasty fabric and hair/skin tones, use of the Dodge and Burn tools, along with some contrast adjustment still does...

    A concise metasearch at www.dogpile.com with the keywords: Photoshop clouds tutorial turned up a half dozen or so different tutorials, for everything from wispy to fluffy to hazy clouds. I'm sure you'll find one that suits your needs.

    returned with a quickie, lol

    The guarantee is only that your post will be answered, not that the answers will neccessarily be of any value... There are some good tutorials out there for the metallic interface and the equalizer sliders. A concise search at a meta search engine like www.dogpile.com, should provide you with...

    trieving the frank mark from an image of a postal stamp

    Better yet, if there is a website you can link to with a high resolution image (150 k is the limit here), we can then download the high res to play with.

    Thick & thin Curves

    I just did the tut, and everything worked exactly the same. It 's written plainly enough, and gives you a screenshot of the levels adjustment so you don't have to guess. What do you mean you "can't work out how to get the levels", and what etc. are you talking about?

    How to draw this shape?

    You could make the waves with the rounded rectangle shape tool, and then curve them with the Shear tool or the Liquify filter.

    How to draw this shape?

    Use the circular marquee. Make the central dot on its own layer. For the arced sections, pull out the circular area with the marquee and stroke the selection and repeat. Then make a selection with the polygonal lasso around the section to keep, invert the selection and delete the remainder of...
