Nagashi, I have just one question. About Step 1 )XD) in the main tutorial (your first tutorial in your first post), how do you make a three-colored gradient? I'm very new to Photoshop CS, so there are bound to be many questions coming from me. Oh, and this question does not just apply to Nagashi; it applies to anyone who is considered "good" at Photoshop CS.

Just go to the gradient tool and on the top left corner there will be the gradient's preview, click it and then you'll have choices of gradients, select a 3 colored one and change the colors as per your wish.

I have another tutorial. I made three tutorials in the past two weeks. Hoorah me.

Here's a preview.


You'll have to buy it to see it. :P

You're kidding right?
How the hell can we bought stuff here? There are no points system. <<;

[Magne-2000lbs.]

At PR of course! XD

The reason why I don't show some tutorials here is because some SPPF members here go to Planetrenders (may not be you, but I know there's at least someone besides me). Meaning, you could just go here to see my tutorials, which are BOUGHT at Planet. In other words, if you don't wanna buy it, just come here and see it for free. Get it?

I've already posted one tutorial that was supposed to be bought, which is the Warrior Tutorial. I'll post another, for my Star Wars one. But not the Kirby one. My preciousssssss.....

[Nagashi]

Ah, I tried to post my result last night, but Serebii crashed (I was shocked too).

Here it is... kinda bleh, but hey:

This is what I got from Magne's tut.

I did it very differently then what you have there.

Well, I returned to SPPf after I was absent for a while. I've been making quite some signature tutorials recently, so I thought I'd show you them

I bought that PoP tag off you, on PR!
I'm the pokelives guy.
Thanks for sharing, though.

[K-os]

[miken park]

[Nagashi]

Cheers Magne - this was made with the Auron tutorial:

[K-os]

New Tutorial - Cloud

Thanks for the tutorials Magne - so far I've tried the Kirby (I'll maybe post my outcome later), the Fort Minor one, and the Spidey one. ( My Spidey result looks really messed up XD )

[K-os]

I have another tutorial. I started with a 500 by 4000 document, but I ran out of space for the first time in my life =O

Anyways...

[Lord of Music]

Ok, I am VERY new to this, and I don't get it. I made the 3 color gradient, but how do I put my image in it?

[Fallen Guardian]

Enjoy and post results. If you have any further questions about any steps PM them to me.

CnC's are also appreciated along with spelling errors (I went over it twice but I'm sure something is bound to have slipped).
Also, in case you don't make it to the bottom, don't rip, I'm trying to help members so don't take advantage of that.


The Tutorial:

[Nagashi]

Any results would be appreciated, thanks. ^^ Enjoy.

[K-os]

Here's the my outcome with Nagashi's:



I don't have Photofilters, so I had to Improvise ^^;

EDIT:
