Brightened up the icon, didn't it? But I believe that's too bright. Go to the "Normal" blending mode, click the drop down arrow button, and choose "Screen" from the selection. Click and drag the layer to the top, so the Multiply and Soft Light layers are under it. Right click that first layer, with our base set to "Normal", and click "duplicate layer". That's right, we're duplicating the base again. We're going to fix this in our next layer. This blending mode makes the blacks even darker, but also removes the whites from the soft light layer. The base has now been dramatically darkened, which may be way too much. Go up to that "Normal" blending mode, click the drop down button, and change it to "Multiply". Drag the layer up to the top, so it covers your Soft Light vase. Right click it, and press "duplicate layer". In your layers box, go to your first layer, with your original, untouched base. Your darks are darkened, and your whites pop out a bit more. By doing this, you're adding depth to a pretty flat image, and adding much better contrast. Now you have a copy of your base- Change the blending mode (it should say "Normal" for now) by clicking the drop down button, and click "Soft Light". A small menu should come up- Press "duplicate layer". In your layers box, right click your base's layer. I did not sharpen for my base, because a fill layer will give a sharpened look in step 5. Here, you may Sharpen (Filter -> Sharpen -> Sharpen) or whatever you may want to do. Now, you may drag those boxes (preferably the corner ones) and change the size the way you fancy without squishing the image. First off, go up to the top toolbar and find the icon that looks like a chain. Eight little boxes along a dotted line should appear around your image. Scroll down to "Free Transform" and click.
You can either do "Image Size" (Image -> Image Size.) or do it the way I do- "Free Transform". Now your image may be obscured by the small canvas. Make sure it says "pixels" next to both boxes). Change the "width" and "height" to a 100 each. Press the enter button- Now you've got your photo. Release your mouse, and everything that will be chopped off should be in a grey-ish haze. Drag your mouse from the corner of the image you want until you've covered the entire image. It's a little box with a slash down the center- click it. Go to the crop ( ) tool in your toolbar on the side. Wonderful collage, but I obviously don't need all those pictures. If you give me credit, you're added back, but three strikes and you're out and all that.First off, grab a picture you fancy I'm going to be using the sexy James Dean as my muse.
You are defriended and I will harass you until I either get credit or you take it down. If I find out you've taken my icons with no credit: ) (and if you are just curious as to my style, you can check out my current icons on my personal journal here.) a much quicker way is to just comment here - do that and you'll probably be on the list within 24 hours. I am annoyed with randomly running across them and seeing no credit and no comment on any of the posts ever, so I am hoping this will cut down on it.įor access: you can just friend me and wait for me to check the userinfo, which happens maybe once a month. I've made this friendsonly, so that I can have a better idea of who's using my icons.
