"How To Make A Simple Siggy Tutorial (using PSP 8)"

1. Open a new image (ctrl+n) about (w)500x(h)200. Click ok

2. You should see something like this:

3. Choose about 2-3 pictures you want in your siggy. I will choose these for the tutorial:

4. Drag the pictures into PSP 8.

5. Click on the blue bar of the 1st picture (to get that picture)

6. ctrl+a (selct all) and ctrl+c (copy) that 1st picture

7. Go to your blank new image and click on the blue bar of that blank image

8. ctrl+e (paste - doNOTdo: ctrl+v)

9. That image shud appear onto your blank siggy:

10. click on the deform tool:

11. Click on that picture and a message like this shud come up. Click ok. this will make a Promoted layer for you. This is very important. Check you layers palette to see if you have now two layers: Backround and Promoted Layer.

12. You can change the place and size of your 1st pic w/ the deform tool...do this if you want before you go onto the second pic.

13. Ok, now go to your second picture: repeat the same things that you did with your 1st picture. (add the pic to ur siggy basically the way u did with your 1st pic)

14. Now you should have 3 layers in your layer palette of your siggy

15. Now Add your 3rd pic the way u did with ur 1st and second pic

16. Now you should have 4 layers in your layer palette.

17. Now your siggy looks kinda unblended right? well i have a little secret i use to blend...i use the eraser tool: So selct this tool. Make the settings like mine (second pic) (but ofcourse you can adjust the settings urself to fit ur preference)

18. then selct your topest layer in ur layer palette. (ur4th layer)

19. Erase a bit of your 3rd pic on ur sigy with the tool so it looks kinda blended with the pics below it. Like this:

20. Now repeat the eraser tool if you want with your 2nd and 1st pic if you want. But i thnk that im done with that part.

*****You dnt have to do this******

21. I will add some brushes now.

22. Select your brush tool:

23. Choose your brush color from your materials palette (i will choose white)

24. Choose your brushes from here: (i added most of my brushes..if u r a starter u probably have the normal brushes that PSP came with. You can use those.)

25. Add your brushes. where you want..this is what i got using the brushes i added...as i said b4 u can use the strters ones too. (i put a copyrite brush on there i made)

26. Now i will add text: choose your text tool:

27. Type you text..selct the text and choose he text color and font and font size...click apply...you can also move ur text in different places...u can slant it etc...

28. press f12 or save as under file and save it: type ur name...but change the file type into a ----.jpg... (there are two jpg choices , choose the one i highlighted....

29. 👏AND YOUR DONE!!! CONGRADULATIONS! YOU HAVE MADE YOUR 1st SIGGY!👏

30. Now upload your siggy and share it with me and everyone here!

Tips:

1. You will definately improve as you make more sigs just like me!😳

2. Brushes are a little bit more for advanced and experienced PSP users...beginers can use it after they are a little more familiarized with PSP

3. Dont care that much about the appearance of the siggy! its the effort that counts!!!!!

4. ALWAYS! ALWAYS! add ur copyright sign either using text tool or brush!

Palette/Toolbar tips:

how to see your layer palette: view>palettes>layers

how to see your toolbar: view>toolbars>tools

how to see overview: view>palettes>overview

Have FUN!

Curves in Adobe Photoshop:

Alot of the time we get such images which have alot of ONE colour in them.Like this:



See how that image is all green?To get rid of that you can use CURVES in Adobe Photoshop.I'm not sure if this will help PSP users although there is curves in PSP too.

1.Open up your image



2.Go to,Image-->Adjustments-->Curves



3.You should now have the curves window open



4.Since my image is all GREEN,I need to select the colour green in the top box,but if your image is red or blue then you should choose red/blue.However if your image is none of these colours and something like yellow,orange then make your image red,green or blue by using COLOUR BALANCE.



5.Now take the POINT in the middle



6.Drag that point just a little DOWN not UP otherwise your image will get more green.



7.You should get this



8.The green is gone but the image has some shades of blue.To get rid of that do the same thing but set the top box on the curves window to BLUE.Drag the point just a tiny bit down.



9.And finally you get







See the DIFFERENCE?Now which one is better? 😉

Hope this tutorial is helpful to someone.It has been all written by ME!

Here's a tutorial by me on putting a picture/signature in your signature box. Since some people didn't quite understand.

Step 1 - Click on Setting on the top right corner

Step 2 - Click on Edit Profile

Step 3 - Scroll down to till you find a Signature Box

Step 4 - Put the image code that you have with the IMG Codes with Brackets around them. If needed click on Yes for your signature to be on every single post of yours.

Hope this help some of the members.😊

I made a tutorial to separate images which do not have a solid background...its for photoshop,dunno if it has been posted b4 or not..anyways,here it goes-

I'm going use this pic of priyanka...

if u notice...it doesnt have a solid background n if wud be difficult to delete the background with the magic wand,so i'm going to delete it through the quick mask mode.

2.On your toolbar click the Quick Mask Mode button (the one stroked with black)

3.Using the solid round brush tool (or press "B" on your keyboard) color in the image that you want to keep. Zoom In (Ctrl and +) to
brush more precisely. Once you're done, it'll look something like this:

4.Exit the quick mask mode...to do tht select the standard mode button(the one stroked with black)

5.Now u'll see ants(black n white lines) running around,lyk in the pic below-

6.Press "delete" on your keyboard,n ur final result will be sumthing lyk the one below-
