Photoshop Tutorials (56K warning!!)

[Pooshonmyshoos]

I totally ripped this from www.socomscene.sucks.com. I give them absolutely no credit, however whoever made them deserve credit. I would not rip this if they knew how to treat their members.
So we have no signature tutorials so I combined a lot and put them in a post. Enjoy. (MORE TO COME)


P.S I know you can not read them as they are small. Working on a solution now.

.PSD Packs

What is a .PSD? A "PSD" is a "Photoshop Document" that can be uploaded with photoshop to create sigs. A "PSD" pack is a pack of pre-made signatures that you can put your name on and make the sigs yours! (Technically) Also they are sigs you can "learn" from to make your own! Here is a list by :Hydro Designs:

Photo Manipulation

(Simple and easy photo manipulation)
First, we need an image to manipulate, I picked this picture:

Go Filter>Noise>Dust & Scratches… and choose these settings:
Radius: 20 pixels
Threshold: 0 pixels.
This gives some sort of blur to the image, but we need to fade it to keep the image's quality by fading it (Edit>Fade Dust & Scratches…) and choosing blending mode as Overlay.

Add a Channel Mixer layer, and in the Blue Output Channel, set the "Blue" bar to 2%, and press OK.
Change the layer's blending mode to Overlay and the opacity to 50%.

Add a Curves layer, and bend the diagonal line there until it looks like something like this:


Last Stage- merge all layers or flatten them. Duplicate the remaining layer we have and apply on the duplicated layer Filter>Distort>Spherize. Choose 59% Amount and "Normal" Mode.
Also, apply Filter>Blur>Gaussian Blur with radius of 3.0 pixels to soften the effect.
Change that layer's Blending Mode to Soft Light.
The final result should it should look like this:
