Well, if you're like, awesome at it, the pencil tool could work, but that's just like, godness xD

lol yep :) imagine someone make a good sig in paint!!! it would have to be acbsract, no brushes and no layers!!!

 

[Innocence]

Well this is not restricted to PSP and Photoshop users is it? Anyway, I have better uses for my money.

 

[Kira]

It's not that, you can't do a good banner in MSPaint.

 

[Sawyer]

well, i don't even have MSPaint... Paint isn't even really a graphics program, it's a default accessory. :/ PS and PSP... the main ones.. you can't really get a good teacher for anything else, honestly.

 

[Kira]

Okies, so now, I want to learn how to work with texts >.<

 

[Sawyer]

texties... x3 i love text, it's so much fun. the text you wanted to learn about on MSN... here's how i do it. okay, make a black text, dirty headline or something like it. put it on soft light, then go to the layer styles and stuff. give it a 1 pixel outside black stroke, bevel and emboss.. this part's fun.
Inner Bevel
Smooth
1% depth
Up direction
1 pixel size
0 soften
90? angle
30? altitude
non global light
Default everything else.
next up... Inner Shadow
Multiply, black
75% opacity, or 100, if you want it very intense
90? angle, don't use global light
1 px distance
the rest can be default.
Then, the drop shadow.
everything should be default except these two...
Angle should be non global light, 90?
distance should be just 1.

 

[Hacker]

when wil you beable to teach me more about sigs?

 

[Innocence]

Just curious then, What good features does PSP have? I'm interested in buying it.

 

[Sawyer]

if you're going for a banner-making program, Photoshop is probably the best choice... i've seen good banners in PSP, but... PS has pretty much everything that PSP has and more :/

Shane! where i can request you a banner.?? i ve been away for a long time

Ill like a 435x75 banner with this image nicely fitted as a background https://images.xangsters.com/myspace/09/2215c.jpg

On the top line to say : Hollister Edition
And in the bottom to say: Chill Sunrise

The letters can be whatever you like , just make it match with the layout and colors too. I would like some nice effects please , not that its just sees like a regular banner. I want it to stand out so the people can say : Knewl,Kawaii . You know... something goodXD

Here take a look at the layout: www.myspace.com/mvtm

 

[Sawyer]

i don't do requests anymore, sorry. people are too ungrateful, so i decided that they can depend on themselves and other mediocre banner makers to help them there.

 

[mvtm]

Emm well then its OK.
i am always been grateful of the few banners that people have made me ,just u know XD

 

[Kira]

Oh, and MVTM, this isn't a banner request thread.
