Videos do not embed in signatures. You'll have to just link it or make a GIF out of it.
You can get it in photoshop Layer by layer. There are some tuts about it in youtube
NoXthin that tutorial is AMAZING TO THE LIMIT!! It looks so hard but is so easy. Man do I love your tutorials, might try it out but its 11:51 pm.

But anyways, cnc?

Thanks! TBH, I just slapped everything in XD

Anways:
The smudge is nice, but what about the other parts? A lot of space isn't much used, making it feel "empty".
Try smudging all the way. KIU!
Thanks for the cnc! I just started getting into smudging, I added a bit of c4d's but I was thinking it was too empty. I tried splatter brushes with clipping masks but I decided to not use the splatter brushes. Maybe I should look at some beginner tutorials for smudging Grin

Honestly, it looks bad...(lightest way to put it)

Should not have motion blured the render. If you were going to do that you should of put a gradient map over it or recolored it to match the background.
I made this for someone, I think the black part should have been made lighter?

I see you've done good with smudging, the text and border don't look too amusing. You should put the render more centre of the tag, and also put lighting. If you use photoshop just right click bucket tool and you get the gradient tool. Make sure your first colour is white an the back colour is black, then drag along your render until your render has a white light and the rest is black. Set this layer to soft light, 15% opacity.

@Imsomniac you should lower the opacity to give some color in my opinion, but if not just lower it to 75% opacity
Oh...I had the lighting in there, must not of saved it...

I would of put it in the middle if some of the render didnt cut off...making it look like carp...

Lol, but do note lighting is used to mainly focus on your render, instead of the other bits and pieces. And also, try adding gradient maps. Just play around with the settings.
Can Anyone Give Me Tips Of Rendering In GIMP Cause My PS Version Is Very Old So I Tried GIMP
Just use photoshop, what photoshop version do you have?

You should have the magneto lasso tool shouldn't you?
PSE 7
Photoshop Extended 7, are those the really old ones?

For GIMP, eraser tool perhaps? Just zoom in until you see boxes as NoXthin said a few pages back.
Its Photoshop Elements 7 Not Extended 7 It Doesn't Even Have Brush Presets For Smudging Uncertain

Cnc? I redid this, and I should have a version with motion blur.
@NaLi, Pentool is the best way to render, though time consuming

Any Cnc? Please its my second.....
The Focal point is too closed up, and the text wont blend, and distracts even more the FP.

Don't use messy borders, they make it look weird. KIU
Thank you for the Cnc.
I wanted it closed up.
Im no good with GIMP,
It makes my head melt.
@NoXthin
PS Elements Doesn't Have The Pen Tool :\
What about this :
