Sigmaking vid

Not exactly a tut itself, but it's the first portion of what will be my tut on making animated sigs, and still might be interesting ...

Sigmaking vid

Not exactly a tut itself, but it's the first portion of what will be my tut on making animated sigs, and still might be interesting for some people to watch.

It shows me making the static portion (everything except the snow) of this sig:

Enjoy!

Re: Sigmaking vid

A simple yet clever way to get that snow effect using gradients, a little brushing, and some filters. Looks great, now for the animation part



Check this out, there may be +rep involved ^ ^ :Audio Signatures

Re: Sigmaking vid

Nice tutorial! I don't have any critics, but some of the new photoshop users can say the video is too fast... Next time try to do a little slower

Re: Sigmaking vid

@post: The gradient tool will start from where you click it, depending on which mode it is in. If you use the outward flowing gradients, it will start exactly from that point, but the default i believe doesnt. I dont know, i dont use them much. Heh. The way to use them? As part of a background for a signature, combined with other effects.
