Abstract Signature Tutorial (56 K beware)

BoundByHonor · 07-18-2006, 04:09 AM

Hey everyone. This is my first tut so it may be a little bad, but I put a lot of effort and time into it. The sig you'll be making is similar to the one I entered on the GFX competition, but uglier because I don't remember exactly how I made it (I followed no tut) I hope you enjoy it

Niiiice. I'm gonna use it, if you don't mind. I'd like to see how it comes out with one of my Link renders lol
Also, how'd you do the border?

BoundByHonor · 07-18-2006, 04:29 AM

Don't worry I won't mind

I made it for that purpose.

The border is quite simple actually. Make a new layer > Apply Image. After that, go to its blending options > Stroke. Once there locate "fill type" and set it to gradient. The colors I used for the gradient were the same I used on the sig, except lighter, and to a 0º angle.

Sorry to be a noob at Photoshop,
But where is the gradient tool?
I'm used to using GIMP and I'm switching to Photoshop..
Anyone wanna tell me?

Yeah sure. Right click the Paint bucket tool, select it.

sir can you give me steps so i can arrange and put my name on a signature?
pls...

Well, there isn't much to it. Type your name and a caption somewhere in the sig. Make sure the font color is similar to it's sourroundings. Pick a default font for these kind of jobs, like Arial. And that's it.

I don't like that finished outcome of that signature tutorial... =_=

The one you did for the "GFX" Competition was awesome though!

BoundByHonor · 07-19-2006, 02:15 AM

Yeah, I know what you mean. I don't remember how I did the other one, I did it without thinking.
