Great work Electric and Sister! WUNDERBAR!


Sister, I really like the artisitic style of that second one. Electric, thats a great effect to add in, gives the picture some depth. Here is a tip though that you can try to make those leaves look even cooler. Make a patch style via photoshop, then apply that to those leaves. Then add a bezel/emboss style to them (dont go crazy with just leaves), and then finally, add a pattern to them to make them appear more leaf like. Try that, and post what u come up with. I think you will be pleasantly surprised. But still, awesome job.

Ack! This did NOT come out the way I had hoped. I will work on a new, better one in the coming days. Oh well, that is what I get for rushing right? Anyways, here is the completed version.

On the plus side, my thread was (and still is) the only image thread with an exception concerning the image width. Normally, images should not in any case exceed 640 pixels (unless linked), but I had received special permission to have images up to 800 pixels.

Bethany Actually, I started this thread a long time ago for purely photoshop skills, and to go beyond image editting. But if you want to combine the two, I don't have an issue with that. I posted in your thread also Beth, so no worries kk? I've already gone through your thread, numerous times. This thread has been linked to in the popular threads sticky, if you hadn't noticed. That is why I decided to resurrect it, so that link wasn't pointless.

Dont know about you but if I saw "Bethany's Image Shop and Galley" and "Show off your Photoshop Skills" threads..probally pick the latter to post in. If you'd like people to post in your thread for whatever reason (or the issue you have with this one) perhaps a name change?

Rahja, don't worry. It's just that I saw the mechanics of both threads to be similar.

@ Verios: The title of my thread sounds a bit funny, but for the records, I had created that thread because many people had asked me how I crafted my screenshots. Instead of replying to everyone I decided to put everything into one nice thread. Now the thing is, the thread went lightyears beyond anything I ever suspected; in lenght, participation and popularity. I seriously expected the thread to get a dozen replies and that it would sink pretty fast into the forum's depths but lo and behold, it is still active today.

Well I've already showed off my "leet" photoshop skills once before, but I suppose I can give you one more taste of my awesome powers!



But seriously I am pretty good with photoshop I just can't find any good examples right now!

Those are great Ranger! The mario one is fantastic. Halo + Pokemon is a bit of an odd combo... but good image wise...

Well, i have been working for several years with Adobe Photoshop (11 years).
I have now reached a certain level where, other normal computer users have not (yet) achieved. Anyway, to show you people some of my great skills at this program, i have created a simple, yet very complex, but rather simple image of a character of Guild Wars in Old Ascalon.
I am sure that i did not need to say the details for you to notice that it is in Old Ascalon, and that the character is a female elementist wearing monk tatoos. Yes- I have such high skills in the program, that i am able to create other class armour on other class characters.

Anyway, enough of the chatting, let's get on to the serious things and show you this piece of art, please take the time to look at it because it did take me just over 2 hours to create it and just under 14 hours to render it in Microsoft Paint.

Typography seems to be an issue with a lot of people, sad how it can ruin a half decent work :[
