thanks for sharing

 

Not sure if any of you guys have seen this
There's a new add-on for the latest Firefox version which you can use to
make animated .png files.
Apparently its only currently usable on Firefox 3 but obviously it sounds like a great leap forward from those muddy gifs as it should have all the benefits of jpg quality (on photos).

On http://www.tattoofont.net/ you can test some tattoo-fonts, when you like a font you can download it from that site but you also can download all the fonts from http://www11.zippyshare.com/v/50587017/file.html

 

I still, after reading tuts, don't have a clue how to use these.

 

Guys...how do we add boarders on PS?
I have no clue....

 

Like the one's i made for your sig?

 

Either draw them on or..

Create new layer (CTRL+SHIFT+N)
Select all (CTRL+A)
Edit > Stroke > Choose pixel size and colour.

 

And when you click on the right side on the layer with your rightbutton of your mouse you can choose "blending options" and there you can make a second stroke.

 

1. create new layer
2. make a selection inside of where you want the border to be
3. select inverse
4. fill or whatever
5. apply whatever effects or drop shadow you want
you're done
you can use multiple layers to make complex borders/frames.

this is if you want to make your own. theres a shit load of canned borders that require damn-all ability if you'd rather go that way.

 

You're so full of tips cylnz. Where's your sig?

 

Sort of...

Thanks guys...its so complicated btw

 

Lol, sorry man, I dont run sigs, dont even have them turned on. You'll notice my isp is sprint. I have an unlimited data account and have my phone dongled/tethered to my lappy. I supposedly get (read "am paying for") 3G but reality is 1.5-2.1Mbps. Load times are slow enough as it is. I guess I could do up one then just leave it turned off on my end. Hadnt really thought about it.

 

Well make sure you have a sig with one of these nice borders you're on about like your underwater sig

 

damn, I dont remember an underwater one. I did finish up the natalie portman/flag/statue of liberty sig with a nice brushed gold filter over a glass etch script and a drop shadow effect. It'll do till next weeks entry comes around.



lol, found it. good sarcasm


awesome border on here lol. Guess it does look unfinished this way. well, that and I hate that font.

 

Thanks to NS4W for this!!

Lads, i just got p/shop on the new machine and have a small problem. When i click the auto select option when using the move tool i can select any layer except from the background layer. I can't see anything to alter this and its a new feature to me.

Anyone know how to rememdy this?

 

Double click the thumbnail of the "background" layer to get rid of the padlock.

 

Didnt work sid. Just gave me the layer options pop up.

 

hmm...it should work :?

I double-click the layer like this:



Then this window pops up:



Once you click okay the "background" layer becomes an editable layer:
