Begging for a Tutorial

Madex · 01-02-10, 06:38 PM

Hey guys, I'm literally begging.. can someone write a tutorial for me on how to do these "Gift" Images and "Steps" Images with those nice writing effects etc?

I'd be really grateful if someone could do them for me

Thanks
-Adrian

Why not just Google some Photoshop tutorials? They would probably cover everything in much greater detail then anyone on here could.

I echo what Maxx said. But...I shall have a go. Give me an hour or so though. To record, edit and upload to youtube

I learnt everything from tutorials online. Just google for what you're trying to make and you will find a good tut

ElectroGirl · 01-02-10, 07:34 PM

Right, uploading vid to youtube now.
It's not really a tutorial, more like a process. Either way, hope you find it useful.

Sorry for the DP
I have to make it shorter than 10 minutes. I forgot that rule. Re-edited it and uploading to PC now...

I learned how to do buttons from looking at photoshop layouts

You can always do it in 2 parts

ElectroGirl · 01-02-10, 08:25 PM

Uploading to Youtube now Madex. No worries

ElectroGirl · 01-02-10, 09:28 PM

Sorry!

Thanks for doing the job!

Impressive Photoshop skills and the SPEED of the video!
I didn't understand most of it so I'll keep pausing and trying to read the stuff

Once again thanks!

Great Job Ellie

What screen recorder software do you use?

tronsmith · 01-02-10, 09:55 PM

I need to spread before giving... How does that work?

ElectroGirl · 01-02-10, 10:00 PM

Camstudio

Why is that?

ElectroGirl · 01-02-10, 10:04 PM

Okay, which version of Photoshop do you have?

CS3 :/
Whenever I install CS4 It says "Licensing for this product has expired" when I launch it, and can't use the CS4, so I switched back to CS3 :/

Any idea how I could fix the problem with CS4 also?

The best option for you would be to use the rectangular marquee tool. It's the second box I believe. Click on that and you will see a 'feather' option near the top panel. Change it to 3 px

It should look similar to what mine looks like now.
Make sure to open a new layer. Now, fill the area with a colour. You should now be at the same stage in the vid I think
