Bored at work with Photoshop...

[Wrathchild]

Whats up kids? Ive been VERY bored at work lately, so I installed photoshop 7.0. I am not very familiar with the program anymore (havnt touched it in 2 years). So there are alot of things that I dont know/remember. Just want some cool tips on how to make visual effects. Thanks for taking your time to read this.

These are some of the things I have made while bored.

Heres a little tutorial i whipped up, enjoy:

500x500 pixels
Start by using the rectangular marque and making different colored rectangles
-1

Fill up the whole space, keep it in one layer
-2

Go to filters/distort/polar coordinates
-3

-4

Create a new layer and make that layer all one color
-5

Use Filters/Noise/Add Noise and make sure it is on uniform and monochromatic
-6

Go to Render/Lighting Effects
-7

[sps16]

For light type do Omni
-8

Now change the opacity until the look suits you
-9

Lastly add some text and another layer on top and you've got a shibby quality image
-10


Final Product

NOT COOL. Don't ever bring shibby back to AO unless you want us to get in trouble again.
