Xyo. But I had made that tag from scratch ,maybe your mistaken.

Taj12 : I didn't made those C4D's , I downloaded them from Deviantart.

Visual ftw !

It doesn't blend right. Flow is good, but it doesn't have any depth. You should consider those stuff

also, fix your light source

Thanks DeX but the light source are already fixed with adjustment layers.

can someone teach me how to do video editing..........

that's far from GFX. GFX is for photo manipulations, not video.

Not sure on this, though :[

isnt it the same, its moving image manipluation....

||Avatar is a gift not my own work||

Videos do not require graphics most of the time. That is really off-topic.

Can any of you help me I want to put my brush white but make it glow a diffirent color

---

Just change the colour of the outer glow while you're in blending properties.

where is that

---

First of all, what program are you using?

---

Question time! It's GFX related, so no sweat. What's the hardest part in making a piece?

For me, it's finding a render/stock. I usually think of ideas as final products, with the exact render I want and how I want it to look. But, finding the render... So hard; I can never find the right pose, quality, or look.

Text. I really want my text to match my signatures exactly, so whenever I can't get it right, I just don't put any. :\
I never know my final product before actually making it, so renders aren't really a big deal to me. Just as long as they're good quality.

The solution to that is that, when you create a graphic, you should always find a picture first, and then you find all the ideas to form an oustanding piece around it. Thus, knowing what is available to me in terms of pictures or animations I can make, thinking of an intelligent concept is what takes longer, but everything gets shaped around that image in the end.

Probably rendering an image (i'm getting better XD) and render placement. I don't get how to cut a perfect render...

I tend to use magic wand, quick selection tool and all thre lasoos (on photoshop) they make it loads easier for me and for me render placement is only a problem in small sized templates such as the ones we use for sigs

hmm nice question dude according to me the hardest part is to think of an awesome idea or creating a image of what will be the result everything else is fine and also when i create a sig i become nervous whether people will going to like it or not.

---

sig by me

^Same with me here , some people like my style and some don't.

Although I think the hardest part in a tag would be the text , most professional GFX-ers don't use text imo. The placement is very hard and if it goes wrong then it would detract too much from the overall piece.

---

Visual ftw !

^With text, its best to use something thin small and not too eyecatching, a bit like tomato sauce in a burger. You can't really see it but it tastes good all the same. I begun to use text like a filling to take up unwanted space.

---

Hm...probably the concept. For my tags, I normally look at stuff around me to get an idea of what I'm going to do. Sometimes, I look up the sky and reach out my hand...I see where the lighting is from and every detail. I try to think of a concept first before everything..

For me,I tend to just make stuff up as I go along (I know that is disorganized, but hey, I am a bad visualizer). It is mostly finding the right effects and how to use them for me. Renders are also hard to find.

Also, I made this for TanithElite. It is a tut on how to make spinning animations. it was a bit rushed and I got lazy at the end but it may help those slightly newer GFX's out there.

Step 1: Find the image/render you want to use. I recommend a face on image of a beyblade. For this tutorial I will be using a render of Beat Lynx. Open it in GIMP. Your screen should look like this:
[Image: epJKQ.jpg]

Step 2: Once open, the image should have a single layer visible on the left side of the screen:
[Image: AStka.jpg]
That is your first layer, I have called it Lynx. Now right click that layer and click on 'Duplicate Layer':
[Image: sLneN.jpg]
Now you should have something like this:
[Image: UegUN.jpg]

Step 3: Next, on the duplicated layer go to the top menu bar and click the option that says 'Filters'. Then move over the option that says 'Blur', and then over the option that says 'Motion Blur'. It should be like this:
[Image: um5gF.jpg]
Click that 'Motion Blur Option'. Move to step 4.

Step 4: Now you should have something like this:[Image: saew2.jpg]
The default setting is on 'Linear', but we need it on 'Radial'. So go ahead and click the 'Radial' option. Also make sure that the 'Preview' box is ticked so we can see what we are doing here. Now your screen should look like this:
[Image: 8k7nU.jpg]
You can edit the angle of the blur if you want, but I'll just keep the default settings. Once you are happy go ahead and click 'OK'

Step 5: Once GIMP has applied your motion blur, your image should look like this:
[Image: XPikJ.jpg]
Next, go ahead and duplicate that layer 3 times, so in total you have 5 layers and your screen looks like this:
[Image: 5bmhH.jpg]
I have renamed each layer because I'm pedantic like that, but you don't have to. It will help in the next few steps if you name them something like mine though. Please proceed to the next step when done.

Step 6: This part gets kinda to tricky to begin with, but you'll get the hang of it. Keep the original layer you blurred as it is (ie. in my case layer 'Lynx Rotation 1'). Click the layer above it (Lynx Rotation 2). Now go an select the 'Rotation Tool', like this:[Image: DcNkE.jpg]
Once selected, click your image and a option box should appear. Change the angle to the rotation to 90.00 degrees, let the other values sit.
Click 'OK'

Step 7: Repeat step 6 for each layer, but adding 90.00 degrees each time. ie for 'Lynx Rotation 3' I rotate the layer 180.00 degrees and for 'Lynx Rotation 4' I rotate it 270.00 degrees. You should have something along the lines of this now:
[Image: MwVJK.jpg]

Step 8: You are almost done! In fact, all you need to do now is preview your animation, do a few tweaks and save it! To preview it, go to the top menu bar and click on 'Filters'. Then move over the option that says 'Animation' then from that click on 'Playback', like this:
[Image: 6pllR.jpg]

Step 9: Now you should have a box like this on your screen:
Click the play symbol, go ahead, click it. See your masterpiece at work!
...
Ok, so it's not done yet, but it spins don't it! The problem is you can see the layers behind it (if you have a transparent BG like I do). If you don't, skip step 10 and move to step 11.

Step 10: To fix the transparency problem, go to the top menu and click 'Layer', then 'New Layer'. Then select the 'White' option and click 'OK'. Duplicate that layer 4 times. The move each white layer underneath a separate 'Lynx Rotation _' layer, so it looks like this:[Image: z3tA4.jpg]
Now right merge click on a 'Lynx Rotation _' layer and click 'Merge Down'. Repeat for every layer until you have this:[Image: k8fmA.jpg]
Now, you can repeat step 8 and preview your animation. What will happen?
...
Now thats better!
If you want, you can change the name of the 'Lynx Base' Layer, and add '(1000ms) to it, this will make that layer last for 1000ms/1s. You can also delete the 'Lynx Rotation 1' layer. Now that should be it! Move on to step 11.

11. Now you just save it as a .gif, and you are done! You have now made a spinning animation! This should be self explanatory, just save it as an animation option and you are done! This is what mine turned out like:

The hardest part for me is creating a Background good thing I'm patient because when i move the mouse it super slow and i would be mashing on it already.

SD: make the spinning longer, it will look nicer.

For me, the theme is the hardest. I was planning smudge, yet it didn't work for my entry. I am going to try vector, hopefully mixing the theme
