This tutorial is a simple Photoshop tutorial for adding stylish rectangles in a sig or other artwork to give a touch up to it. it's very simple and in my opinion it has a great effect sometimes! you should try it, I show you how! Good luck! Well ... We start with a background that you're going to use for you sig or other piece. I started a new file (350*100) a great sig resolution in my opinion. Start making your background, with brushes, filters or whatever. I came up with this:
The weapon of all weapons!!! Personally, I'm not a fan of weapons, but you can't hate this lasersword. "The weapon of a Jedi-Knight. Not as clumsy or random as a blaster!" Learn in a few simple steps how to make your own saber!
This is really just one of those random effects I made up when I was photoshop-freestyling... It's really pretty useless, but I found out it's great for signature-backgrounds or headers!

Looking for text effects? Welcome to the Photoshop Text Effects section of Photoshop Essentials.com! Here, you'll find our complete list of text effects tutorials for Adobe Photoshop, all written with beginner Photoshop users in mind, with an easy to follow, step by step approach. Photoshop has long been the industry standard for creating amazing photo effects and special effects, but it's also great at helping you design text effects ranging from the simple to the outrageous! The great thing about text effects is that they can be lots of fun to create, even if it's simply for your own enjoyment. Of course, text effects are widely used in professional advertising and marketing, but regardless of why you're creating them, Photoshop makes it easy to turn your imagination into reality! Many text effects created in Photoshop are now considered classics, like text reflections, placing images inside text, 3D text effects, metallic type, chrome type, wood type, neon lettering, and more! Each new version of Photoshop adds new features that open up even more possibilities to explore with text. One of the easiest and most popular ways to create fun text effects is by using Photoshop's Layer Styles, allowing you to add color and gradients, shadows, glows, patterns, and more while keeping your text fully editable! Of course, you can also convert your type into pixels, which gives you full access to all of Photoshop's amazing features, including all of Photoshop's filters! If you can think of it, you can create it in Photoshop, and what better way to learn Photoshop than by having fun with text effects!
In this Photoshop text effects tutorial, we're going to create some knock out text. By that, I mean we're going to look at how to use one of Photoshop's more interesting shape options to knock out sections of letters that overlap each other! Of course, you can't use shape options unless you're working with shapes, so along the way, we'll see how to convert text to a shape, which opens up a lot more possibilities for us when it comes to creating cool text effects. Here's an example of the result we're going for:
In this Photoshop Text Effects tutorial, we're going to learn how to use text as a container for more text! Specifically, we'll fill a single letter with an entire paragraph of text so that the text appears in the shape of the letter. Here's the effect we're going for:
For this step you will need to have a floral brush set, lots of these can be found here, download one and install it, note that you may need to restart Photoshop after installing it. Create a new group behind the text and in a new layer; use the purple swatch and go wild with these brushes, making them flow from the letters and the lines. My set included some leaves which I dotted around using the green swatch. Using the floral brushes was just an idea, other vector style brushes can give good results too, one which is worth trying is using tree brushes on the top half of the letters.

I call this the Sugar Bag Effect because I got the idea from an old bag of sugar. Original� I know.

Make no mistake, environmental conditions will have an adverse effect on the longevity of any artwork posted outdoors. But that which is detrimental to quality also produces a new form of beauty. That beauty can be found in the distressed effects that are the direct result of weather, or normal wear and tear caused by activity in the immediate surroundings. Many digital artists recognise the beauty within these tactile imperfections, but more often than not, the reproduction of these effects is less than impressive.
Now let's create the RGB pattern. Create a New File [Ctrl + N]. Set the Width to 6 pixels, Height to 1 pixel. Zoom in really close to about 800%. [Ctrl + =]. Select the Pencil tool. Click on your Color Picker boxes. To get a perfect red, set the Hex value to [FF0000].
Now write out your text with a nice, cartoonish kind of font. The font I used is called Vogue Cyr, if you don't have that font just look through your fonts and find a good one that will suit the theme. Note: You can write your text out in any color you want, it will be overwritten with the layer styles Right-click the text layer in the layer's palette, go into the Blending Options and apply the following styles and settings:
One of my favorite things to do is stay up all night and watch music videos on VH1, although they repeat way too much. But the point is that you can gain a ton of inspiration just by watching them. So when I saw the Violet Hill video I loved the somewhat dark and gritty feel of it. And now the tut is born.

I love today's tutorial! The reason being that it's all about experimentation. It's called the Bleach Bypass Effect which is extremely popular in movies. It's been used in the films Saving Private Ryan, Minority Report, and others. Bleach Bypass is actually an effect you can achieve on film when you skip bleaching while processing color film, leaving the silver retained on the negative. In the end, what you get is an image with high contrast, graininess, and reduced saturation. If you would like the grainy feel in your image, visit my Realistic Film Grain tutorial!

Creating 'Scanlines' from scratch; not using a filter. The following method of creating the scanline effect allows us more control over the thickness of the lines. Which in turn can produce more variations of the look when applied to our images. I don't think any sample images are needed to explain this method. It really is very easy to visualize and understand.

Often times as Photoshop users, both beginner and advanced, we get so used to using a tool in a certain way that we often overlook it's possibilities. I had a recent request for a tutorial on creating a digital "matte" effect so I decided to tackle the idea using a set of layer styles which could be saved and reused easily.
Lets start by opening the image in Photoshop. Velvia is a high saturation film best suited for landscape photography. Because of the high level of saturation produced by this effect, I don't recommend using portraits or photos with people, unless of course you like that tan-from-a-bottle orange-skin look. This is a photo I took of the Tetons in Jackson Hole, Wyoming. It was shot with an old Nikon D100 which was known for weak color, which makes it a perfect shot for this effect.
Wow, can't believe I never thought of that. Very simple way to produce the effect and easy to control how much rotation you want. Thanks for the free tutorial! :)

you might get a sharper pixelation that resembles old 8-bit video games by scaling down your image, zooming in and taking a big screencap. the mosaic effect gives those fuzzy edges that i hate. alternatively you could just go the pixel art route and do it square by square.
The split toning effect can be done much faster with the latest version of ACR (Adobe Camera RAW), Adobe Lightroom, and possibly Apple Aperture - please confirm this with me in the comments if you know.This Photoshop tutorial is meant as a solution in case you do not have any of those options. For example, editing a JPEG file with Photoshop.
Architectural cameras and lenses often have a Swing or Tilt feature which tilts the focal plane and thus provides a weird depth-of-focus effect. Sometimes, primarily with landscapes or cityscapes photographed from above, you get the impression as if you were looking at a mock-up. Now we try to emulate this effect using Photoshop.
Photoshop is a fantastically well featured program which can take years to master. This does not mean, however, that superb photographic effects are beyond the grasp of novice users. This tutorial describes a very simple technique for creating images with oil-painted effects using nothing more than a photograph and the basic Photoshop tools. The end result is as impressive as it is simple!

Professional photographer jargon calls strong, unnatural over-exposure "High key". This is what we try to emulate in this article by preparing a B&W; high key version of a color image. The procedure is further spiced by leaving the eyes colored, so that the gaze and the color catch the viewers' eyes.
In the following article, we'll be leveraging the features of the filter gallery introduced in Photoshop CS. The gallery allows you to easily apply multiple filter effects to the same layer, e.g. changing it into a lifelike drawing or painting. Users of earlier Photoshop versions can also try the procedure, but they will have to apply the filters to separate layer copies and merge them with a blending mode of their choice. So, Filter Gallery did not only speed up organizing creative filters, but also enhanced and made easier layer management.

Title: Free adobe photoshop software training learn how to make blasted or hammered text effect Description: In this photoshop tutorial I have used techniques on how to use photoshop tools to draw hammered or blasted or scratched text effect for digital scrap booking project alpabhets or website layout templates.
Today we are going to give some cool Effects to a Text. In this tutorial I have used photo shop Tools Like, Horizontal Type Tool, Paint Bucket Tool, and some really cool Effects like Filter > Stylize > Wind effect . Let's get started.
1. Create a new image however big you'd like. If you'd like to make a wallpaper than make it 1024x768 or 800x600. I chose 800x600 for tutorial purposes. Make the background Transparent and the Resolution 72. 2. Rename "Layer 1" to "background" (it just makes things easier). Now press CTRL + D to reset your color palette. Now click on your foreground color and type in the following... "H: 210, S: 100" and put the "B:" anywhere from 100-85. 100 is lighter and 85 is darker. I chose 85. Press "OK". Now select your background color. Type in the following... "H: 210, S: 85-60, B: 100". For "S:" 85 is darker, 60 is lighter. 3. With your two blue foreground and background colors selected, grab the gradient tool and click at the very top of your image (on layer "background"), hold SHIFT, and drag down to the very bottom of your image. This should make a gradient that looks something like this (but a lot bigger of course): 4. Create a new layer. Call this layer "clouds". Put it above the layer "background". Press CTRL + D to reset the color palette. Now go to Filter > Render > Clouds. Now go to Filter > Render > Difference Clouds. Press CTRL + F until you see something like this (I pressed it about 8 times): 5. Now Press CTRL + L to change the Levels. Use settings that look something like this: 6. Duplicate layer "clouds". Call this layer "extrude". Go to Filter > Stylize > Extrude with these settings: "Type: Blocks, Size: 2 Pixels, Depth: 30; Level-based, Solid Front Faces: checked, Mask Incomplete Blocks: unchecked". 7. On the layer "extrude", go to Filter > Blur > Gaussian Blur with the Settings: "1.8-3.0". I chose "2.0". 7. Change the blending modes of both layers "clouds" and "extrude" to "Hard Light". Select the layer "extrude" and press SHIFT + CTRL + E to merge the layers together. You should be left with one layer, "extrude". Rename it to "implosion". 8. Create a new layer. Call this one "background". Press CTRL + D to reset the colors. go to Filter > Render > Clouds. Now go to Filter > Render > Difference Clouds. Now select your gradient tool with these settings: (click image to enlarge) 9. Now make a bunch of different gradients. It doesn't matter the specific way or how many you make, just go crazy and make something that looks like this: 10. Duplicate this layer, and go Filter > Distort > Wave (on layer "background"). Use the default settings and press the "Randomize" button until you get something you like. Now set the blending options on this layer to...

Press 'T' on the keyboard to activate the Type tool. Enter your type and if you want to change the font, double click the text to highlight it then choose a font from the drop down menu at the top of your canvas. You could also change the size and color of the text now if you wish, but there is no real need as I will be showing you another way of doing it later on. When you have something similar to this, continue to step 2.

Fun With Effects I'm in the mood for something 'groovy' to lift the tension. Layer Styles can take you a long way these days, but for combining effects (adding metal to glass, for instance) you need to work with more than a single layer. You will also want to work with some filter options for added texture. All the steps I'm taking here are actionable, I'm including the action with this column for you to enjoy. Let's get started! 1) Make a new image. Background doesn't matter, but you may want to go with white or transparent. Mine is a transparent image, 100 DPI, RGB. 2) Create a new layer. 3) Choose the Type Mask Tool, and enter your text in the new layer with a font size of at least 120. For this example I'm using 'PizzaDude Pointers', found at http://www.pizzadude.dk/home.html . If you've never visited this site I strongly recommend it, especially if you are into original fonts. 4) Fill the selection with a color; white should work just fine. 5) Create a new layer. 6) Choose Gray as your foreground color. Go to Edit>Stroke. Apply a centered 6 pixel stroke. Here's the example thus far: 7) Since we are already on the stroked layer, let's work with that guy first. Command/CTRL+Click the stoke layer in the layers palette to make our stroke an active selection. Let's duplicate this layer just in case. 8) Hit 'D' to reset your colors. We don't really want a stark black foreground, so let's change that to an extremely dark blue/black. We just need a hint of color, so don't get too bright! 9) Select the gradient tool. We want to go Foreground to Background, Refelected Gradient Style, fill mode set to Difference. 10) Start filling the selection several times from different angles. 11) Let's add a bit of noise to the selection: 12) Now just a little bevel to give us some dimension and reflection: Let's move down to the filled layer and work on the gloss. What gloss? You'll soon see! 13) With the filled layer selected (as opposed to the stroke layers), open the Layer Style dialog box. Choose 'Blending Options' from the top of the left hand menu. We will change a couple settings here: 14) For the next few steps, we will just walk through Layer Style Settings: First some Color: A Bevel: Inner Shadow: Inner Glow: And finally, a Gradient Overlay: That seems like a lot of steps, which is why you should save this as a Layer Style if you would like to apply it again in the future. After all that, here is the result: I threw a bit of background in to show that the glass is, indeed, somewhat transparent. Let's run the action I created on some other text, just to make sure everything works: Looks like everything is in order! Thanks for taking a few minutes out of your week to spend with me, and please come see me at Action Fx. Take Care!

This simple effect in Photoshop effectively increases the luminosity range of an ordinary photograph, giving a wide spectrum of tones and contrast. The effect was originally discovered whilst I was trying to replicate the style of HDR photography in Adobe Photoshop. Whilst the outcome doesn't quite compare to HDR, the resulting effect is still pretty cool!

Black and white layer command is a great new feature added in Photoshop CS3, which lets you convert a color image to grayscale while you have full control over the color being converted. You can also apply a color tint to the image.
Step 1: Open an image.
In this Adobe Photoshop tutorial, we're going to learn how to simulate the look of infrared photography in Photoshop. We'll be taking a look at Photoshop's Channels palette and seeing how to isolate a color channel as well as how to apply filters to color channels, we'll be using adjustment layers, specifically the Channel Mixer adjustment layer to adjust how much impact each individual channel has on the image, we'll be using a few different layer blend modes, adding some noise, and at the end, seeing how to bring some of the color from the original image back into the effect.
Step 2 Before we start, we need to convert the layer into a Smart Object. Right mouse click on the layer and select "Convert to Smart Object". Now that we have a smart object, we can perform nondestructive filtering to the image (We'll talk more about this later).
You can use one of your pre-installed fonts, however if you don't think you've got the right font, draw your own using the pen tool. For the shape below I used franklin gothic font set to 800 px in size. Then converted the text into a path, and modified the individual points using the direct selection tool to a shape I was happy with. Next, I turned the path into a live selection. Lastly I filled that selection with the color black in a new layer.
Step 1: First open any image.
In the Layers palette, click on the new adjustment layer button and choose Black & White. The Black and White option is only available in Photoshop CS3. If you are using Photoshop CS2 or older, choose Hue/Saturation instead.
If you want to place an image in the vanishing point plane, first copy the image in the clipboard. To confine vanishing point results to specific areas of the image, either make a selection or mask the area. You can even copy the image in perspective and paste in another document. To preserve the perspective, copy the item in vanishing point in one document and then paste it in another document while in vanishing point.

Repeat the process as before to crack the entire text. You will have a lot of layers on your hands at this point. One by one, select the layers on which the individual pieces reside and using the arrow keys, nudge them up and down and to the sides (with Move Tool selected). The spaces we are creating will allow the light to filter through.
Select and merge all the layers. Double click the layer to open layer style window. Apply settings as shown.

Step 1: Open any Previous image (Probably with mild colours e.g. Scenery, Grass etc) Step 2: Filter ?> Stylize ?> Wind (Wind, From the Right/Left) Step 3: Press Ctrl+F to repeat? Press again if you want
2) Now open up second photo called "moon". Using same methods as in the previous step we have to select only the moon, without its background. I once again used Calculations command and this time I used red and green channel with subtract like in the picture below I renamed Alpha1 into moon_selection. To ease our work with selection I now applied Levels command (CTRL + L) and set these values Now pick Brush tool, select white for foreground color and make that grey areas inside moon white. And now we have our selection saved as a channel. Let's go to the next step
Step1: Setting up workspace.
1. Open the photo, grab the "Magnetic Lasso Tool" and select all of the Old Classic car.

Although it is a commercial font family, this variant is free. You will have to add it to the shopping cart and follow the instructions. At the end of the order process you will not have to pay anything for it.
Use the color black with a pencil and brush and draw on our "Original" layer with the mask as close to the picture as you can get without drawing on the penguin's body or the pictures white frame. Normally we could use the magic wand tool for this step if the color separation was better - or inverse color selection for those that really know your Photoshop tricks - but this little guy has some stubborn color separation, so we're just going to use this method. Again, get it as close to him and the frame as possible without drawing over them.
We will be starting off with this photo : Which you can get from SXC.hu
Start off by duplicating the default layer (CTRL+J) as Layer 1. Reduce brightness of duplicate image by dragging center point of the Curves tool (CTRL+M). Duplicate Layer 1 as Layer 1 copy. Go to Filter > Radial Blur > Zoom : 80. Set the blend mode for Layer 1 copy as 'Multiply'. You should get something like this: Now, create a new layer (Shift+Ctrl+N) and name it as �storm�. Go to Filter > Render > Clouds. Next up, select Filter > Render > Difference Clouds. Apply the same filter (Ctrl+F) several times (preferably 5 times or above). Bring out the Levels Window (Ctrl+L) and apply settings until you see lumps of clouds appearing (Input Levels: 30/0.75/175). NOTE: Results/settings may vary as each clouds/difference clouds rendered may differ. Once done, set storm's blend mode to 'Color Dodge'. Transform (CTRL+T) and scale the image. You can also adjust the perspective a little, based on the nature of your chosen image. Press Enter to apply the transformation. Next, we should remove areas which are too bright. Follow these sub-steps: 1) Go to Windows > Channel (to bring out the channels window). 2) Hold CTRL and click on Red channel (to make a selection). 3) Go to Select > Inverse (or press Shift+CTRL+I) to invert the selection. 4) Go to Select > Feather (or press CTRL+ALT+D) and set radius : 10 pixels. Click on the masking tool to hide the brighter parts of the layer. Select layer mask of 'storm' layer and further adjust the levels (CTRL+L) until you have something like this (Input Levels: 0/1.70/180): NOTE: Again, results/settings may vary as each clouds/difference clouds rendered from previous steps may differ.
All keyboard shortcuts are for PC. I don't have a Mac, but as far as I know the main difference is use of the COMMAND key and OPTION key on a Mac instead of the CTRL key and the ALT key on a PC.

What we need to do before we do this is to actually pack our layers into one layer. This is called �Merge Layers� and can be found in the �Layer� menu.
The first thing you'll want to do is create a new document by going to [File > New] or pressing [Ctrl + N]. When the New Document dialog opens, set the Background Contents to [Transparent]. The dimensions settings will depend on the size of the line you want to create and the amount of space between the lines. For this first example I'll just be using 1-pixel wide lines spaced 1-pixel apart, so my dimensions will only have to be 3px x 3px.
