Avatar Tutorial

How do you add teh fonts to Adobe?

 

Just install them onto your PC, and they should show up there.

 

I have Photoshop 6.0, but I can still follow this..........but I have 2 questions....


Where do I unzip the silkscreen font to?(Ignore........I figured it out....who knew that readme's where intended to be read )

And where can I get more patterns(the ones on the template suck)?


Thanks,
Vintage

Those are all the patterns that I use, they are the only line patterns that I know of. The link is provided in the first post.

 

i dont understand the blurring part

 

how to install fonts:
http://bluesugar.org/em/tutorialfont.html

which part don't you understand about blurring it?

 

when LIL said somthing about a drop down menu apearing and i dont know what brush to use

 

Use the round brushes, sizes depend on the picture. If you are making a smaller avatar you would want a smaller brush that will not touch your player/celebrity/etc, so that they do not become "blurred." If you are making a bigger avatar, use a bigger brush.

 

oh aight thanks

 

How do you make a player have a shadow of himself.......sort of like DeeStillBallen's with Dirk.....

I am trying to make a sig for myself.

This tutorial is a big help though. My avatar might not be the greatest, or most difficult to make, but its the first one I ever made, and its simple, and more importantly, I like it.....

But now I am trying to make my own sig....and that shadow effect, where it looks like there are multiples of the same player fading into the background is a effect Id like to add to my sig.

 

No problem.

 

I actaully like your avatar, that pic is awesome! As for the shadow effect, I have no clue how to do that. I know how to do it with text, but with images it's a whole different story. I think Emily knows how to do it, and I'm 100% sure purehoops knows how to do it. They can answer here about it, but I'd really like this to just stay an avatar tutorial. However, they can make a tutorial for sigs, and then I'll delete their posts hereabout it, becaue it will be in there. I hope you understand.

Ok. Sorry about getting OT there.

Who is Emily? Is that her screen name here?

 

Sorry Vintage, I thought everyone kinda new. I like using names better than screenames. It's weird.

 

how do you resize it after finishing step 5/6

 

oh wait i figured it out
