Um, does anyone want to have a picture competition against me? I'm pretty bored, and I'm curious to see how other people make pictures, sort of like gaining new skills from each other.

Anyways, rules:
It has to be a new picture.
It can be any size.
A judge (who wants to be the judge? post it here.) decides who shall win.
You make 3 pictures.
0ne is editing, the other is from scratch, and the 3rd is any kind of picture of your choosing.

So who wants to give it a shot? :mrgreen:

By the way, you CAN'T use anything from a tutorial, but if you remember the tutorial, you can use it.

Dragard

There should be 3 ~ 5 judges. That way it doesn't all depend on one judge. The majority wins.

Did you use Photoshop CS3?

Acer
11-02-2008, 01:21 AM
I used CS2.

Phippzy
11-02-2008, 01:22 AM
Ah I use CS3 but im kinda new at it. Maybe give me some tips? :)

Acer
11-02-2008, 01:23 AM
Hmm, well, I started with learning tutorials. Then by the time I did a lot of them, I know all there is about Photoshop. Filters, Adjustment Layers, Editing, Cropping, Channels, Layers, Blending 0ptions, etc.

Phippzy
11-02-2008, 01:26 AM
Never heard of filters and channels :?

Acer
11-02-2008, 01:30 AM
Ehr, Channels are really advanced.
Filters you can find on that bar where it has
"File, Edit, Image, Layer, Select, FILTER!, View, Window, Help."
It's at the very top.

Phippzy
11-02-2008, 01:32 AM
Ohhhhh thanks lol

Acer
11-02-2008, 01:35 AM
Just take a picture and use filters on it.
You can make some awesome stuff. Here's an example:

Ooooo nice one, Ima try it now. Also to get good did you just start experimenting?

Acer
11-02-2008, 01:37 AM
And if you get good with that kind of filter. Try coloring it in.

For that one, yes. I usually experiment now, and I've got some pretty realistic stuff. I don't use filters much because I like trying to figure out other stuff and use them as a finishing touch.
Here's an example of a realistic filter pic:

Acer

Acer

Acer, I'm no good at making signatures myself, but I have seen a lot of them. You are really good, but you need to add more to your sigs than just a render and a background. Try to create an illusion when you make them. For example, take the effect from the Zelda one, and put it in the Sonic one. Keep the same color, but make it look like Sonic is going through the hole. That way it will look like he is going so fast he is going through time. I know it is easier said than done, but just have to be more creative. :wink:

Acer

No statigar's right. As people request them you'll keep getting better.

Acer

By the way, umm, where do you get those effects for the signatures you make? I use to just google "3d abstract images" and I'd get a couple, but yours are good.

malom

i wasnt going easy i just like to try out new things all the time, the edited picture wasnt sure what that involved so i just edited a picture to make it smoother, sratch picture was some thing new i tried out (not my best piece of work), and the last one i always liked that sig.

i mainly search on deviantart for the 3d abstract pics or i search on planetrenders, there the only places worth searching for pis google is lame dont use it
