Greatsilverwyrm Posted October 10, 2004 Share Posted October 10, 2004 I've been more than a bit bored lately, so.. Post here if you have any questions having to do with either Photoshop, or Bryce. I also may be able to help you with some PSP questions. (I can only answer questions 100% for those using Bryce 5, PSP9, or PS 5 and above.) Please don't ask any questions regarding "art". For example don't ask: What color should I use? How do I make a sig? How do I make an abstract? , that's your job. I'm just trying to help you use the program to it's fullest so that you can acheive your artistic vision. However, you could ask me questions on techniques, like creating chrome text, or a partially-transparent grid or whatever.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Greatsilverwyrm Posted October 10, 2004 Author Share Posted October 10, 2004 Well Link, the easiest way to do that would be to do a solid-color background in Bryce as similar as possible to the overall colors of the sig you want, then, when you have all the frames exported, just remove the solid color background in every frame. I'm helping MPM via PM. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
leowen Posted October 10, 2004 Share Posted October 10, 2004 well id like to learn about path's as well.....and also, what suggestions do you have on adding more realism to Bryce 5 renders? --leowen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Deximus Posted October 10, 2004 Share Posted October 10, 2004 with reference to my piece http://forum.tip.it/viewtopic.php?t=83985 a) whether the style is correct to vectorise B) if so, what procedures i would use to vectorise realisticaly in ps7, with moderate understanding of featues and tools Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Greatsilverwyrm Posted October 10, 2004 Author Share Posted October 10, 2004 Leowen, in Bryce, you link a shape to a motion path via the linking tab in the attributes of the object, and animate as normal, if you have no idea what I'm talking about, pm me. As for adding realism, that's up to you. :) ;) Deximus, what you're doing is pixel-drawing, vector refers to drawing with paths, or vectors, which are basically mathematically-defined lines. You use them in Illustrator, and somewhat in PS. I can give you more specific help via pm. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Demoris Posted October 10, 2004 Share Posted October 10, 2004 I reaslly like how well you do text, so I'd like some advice on some of the things you do. One thing specifically is putting text on a path in Photoshop. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ColAvanor Posted October 10, 2004 Share Posted October 10, 2004 Demoris..you might want to check this out. http://www.pbkill.com/tutorials/ps/text ... tpath.html Couldn't get it to work though... :oops: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Demoris Posted October 10, 2004 Share Posted October 10, 2004 It says you need Photoshop CS, I only have version 7. I tried it anyway, and can't get it to work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ColAvanor Posted October 10, 2004 Share Posted October 10, 2004 ah...didn't read too carefully... I have CS, but haven't installed it. Goodio. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
twisted_master Posted October 10, 2004 Share Posted October 10, 2004 I've got a question. Suppose I want to make a sig with solid background and animated text. Is there a way to do this with only 1 background frame, without putting background into every frame? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iPee freely Posted October 10, 2004 Share Posted October 10, 2004 Two things: 1. When making grunge sigs, with each of my brushed layers, in photoshop 7, what should i set my layers too? Soft Light? 2. What sort of fonts go well with Grunge sigs, i've searched for grunge font but nothing goes well that i've found... Hacked, gaining none buy-able skills.

Greatsilverwyrm Posted October 10, 2004 Author Share Posted October 10, 2004 operationfl: Are you asking how to get the render into Photoshop? If so, go to File> Render to Disk. The rest should be pretty self-explanatory. Demoris, ColAvanor: Yes, text-on-path is a feature availably exclusively in Photoshop CS. (Actually other programs have it, but not other versions of Photoshop). Twisted_Master: If you're using imageready, all you have to do between frames is move the layer you want, you don't have to create an entire new image for each frame. Fergz13: Those are things that are up to you. ic3dragon: Please don't go off-topic. Vladmoney: Do you know about the preview animation button? It shows you a small (the size of the preview in the upper-left) version of the animation. MeXe: Just search google. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tttia Posted October 10, 2004 Share Posted October 10, 2004 I got a question do you and other mods play runescape? and if you do whats your combat level? I have one, who invented liquid soap and why? Oh and can you spell out the advantages of nested layers, as that is a feature that corel photopaint doesn't support in my version. (Yeah I know I could find that easily, but I had to justify my liquid soap question). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Greatsilverwyrm Posted October 10, 2004 Author Share Posted October 10, 2004 Tttia, I assume you're talking about layer sets and nested layer sets, available in Photoshop CS. It's basically to help you organize your work and move things. You really kind of have to try them to get how useful they are. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tttia Posted October 10, 2004 Share Posted October 10, 2004 Pretty sure nested layers were around before cs, but ah well....just wondering what they were and what I was missing :) and liquid soap? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Greatsilverwyrm Posted October 10, 2004 Author Share Posted October 10, 2004 As far as I know, the first version of Photoshop at least to have nested layers is CS. Think of marbles..it's easier to deal with the marbles when they're in a bag, right? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ryan Posted October 10, 2004 Share Posted October 10, 2004 Is it actually possible to make vector in Photoshop? All of the photoshop "vector" I've seen is really just raster. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
