Star-Sky Effect Tutorial

Eljon — Sat, 09 Jan 2010 14:25:25 +0000

This is one of the firsts techniques I’ve learned while exploring Adobe Photoshop. Some of them I learned from my ever helpful friend, Google! Tonights technique is called Star-Sky Effect.

As we go on with the steps, you’ll be amazed of what Adobe Photoshop and yourself can do. ^^, Now let’s start.

Start by choosing a dark blue color as your foreground color and black as your background. Refer to the image below.

Next, from your Menu Bar choose Filter -> Render -> Clouds. And you will have something like the image below:

Now, create a new layer and fill it with black. Choose black as your foreground and white as background as you’ve seen below.

Again, on your Menu Bar choose Filter -> Noise -> Add Noise. And follow the settings below.

Now that’s too many stars, we can lessen it by selecting Image -> Adjustments -> Levels and follow the values below.

Lastly, change the Blending Options of the Noise-added Layer to ‘Screen’ to remove the black part. Voila! You now have a Star-sky-like effect.

Here, You can add some texts and lens flare to add more excitement on your graphics like this one.

Rounded Corners Css Tutorial

Eljon — Wed, 06 Jan 2010 13:45:42 +0000

While exploring the vast web (which I usually do ) and searching for a nice css trick, I discovered the new options for borders W3C has offered. This is called the border-radius. It can make your borders go round hehe

This is a good alternative if you are not fond of using background images in making round corners (like me! haha). This border property only works on new versions of Mozilla Firefox, Safari 3 and Google Chrome but not in IE (as usual arghhh ).

Here’s an example:

Free Mp3 Music Downloads | Cafe-Razo.Com – Free Mp3 Search, Mp3 Codes, Music Playlists and Lyrics Search.

The code for the above example is:

div {
-moz-border-radius: 7px;
-webkit-border-radius: 7px;
border: 1px #000000 solid;
background:#4f4f4f;}

More examples:

div{ -moz-border-radius-topleft: 15px; -webkit-border-top-left-radius: 15px; border: 1px #000000 solid;background:#919191;}

div{ -moz-border-radius-topright: 15px; -webkit-border-top-right-radius: 15px; border: 1px #000000 solid; background:#919191;}

div{ -moz-border-radius-bottomleft: 15px; -webkit-border-bottom-left-radius: 15px; border: 1px #000000 solid; background:#919191;}

div{ -moz-border-radius-bottomright: 15px; -webkit-border-bottom-right-radius: 15px; border: 1px #000000 solid; background:#919191;}

Brightness Adjustment Tutorial

Eljon — Tue, 05 Jan 2010 15:41:17 +0000

Good Evening readers! While i was thinking of a good entry to post here, my ate suddenly came and taught me a very nice technique on adjusting the brightness of your pictures (underexpose pictures). I just thought that it would be great if I share it here.

This technique is an alternative way instead of using Image -> Adjustments -> Brightness/Contrast. This is recommended if you are not skilled on mixing the values for the Brightness and Contrast.

Since she is the one who taught me this technique, I’ll be using her picture as an example.

Note: Click on the images for the full preview.

First open your selected image on Adobe Photoshop by clicking on File -> Open
I chose a dim picture of my sister to emphasize this technique.

Then, duplicate the image by pressing Ctrl+J or by simply right clicking on the layer and select Duplicate Layer

Next, select the Layer Copy and choose Screen from the Blending Options. (This one will do the trick.)

You can adjust the opacity of the Layer Copy until you get your desired result.

Here is the finished product. Try it too, see the magic, and you will be amazed by what you have done. ^^,
