The secrets on how to make artwork of the Sam/Jack ship family thread

[Luvnjoe]

This is what I've been working on today. I don't scrapbook, so I'm not real sure about it. This is the front page of our two-page picture profile we get to send out with our regular adoption profile. I haven't updated it in ages. What do you think? Ickybah?

Oma, it looks good but I agree it needs text. I'll let you know if I think of anything.


Are we posting our old entries or something so we can see how we improved?

[Regularamanda]

Love it Oma! hmmm maybe it needs a texture?

I was fangurling AT in Atlantis yesterday, didn't come out how I wanted Which is so frustrating



And S/J icons for the challenge on LJ

I'm attempting to make my current sig into a simple wp, but I think it needs some text. I'm drawing a blank - anyone got any suggestions?

Here it is so far....

I love it! But I can't help you with the text I'm afraid.

Awesome challenge entries GimPS Love the new idea

I made two True Blood sigs, one has rude word and the second is spoilery

Sam icons for the challenge on LJ

Okay I'm really confused That make a "stamp" feature that you guys with PS use all the time? How do you get it, because I'm pressing shift, ctrl, alt, e all at once and nothing's happening...

[josiane]

Oma that wp is just stunning! But I agree it needs something else, kind of to highlight it. I can't think of any text right now either (but will continue to ponder for you), but maybe if text is not forthcoming a brush of some kind would do the job?

Achaja, gorgeous True Blood sigs - don't watch the show but they're very well put together

LJ I adore your adoption profile! It's so cute!

Jas and Amanda fabulous icons, both of you, and well done in the challenges (especially you Amanda!) Here's mine for the same contests:

Make sure the top layer is highlighted in the layers list, then hold down shift, hold down ctrl, hold down alt and press e. It's quite awkward to get right

Ickybah? I think not!!!! It brought tears to my eyes LJ, cos you all look so happy together

If you want some pointers for scrapbooking, try contacting Camy in the Graphic Art Display Thread, she's done loads

Thanks *is happy because it was one that wasn't an animation that won this time*

I love the one of Jack that's right after Sam says she has a thing for the lunatic fringe

Make sure the top layer is highlighted in the layers list, then hold down shift, hold down ctrl, hold down alt and press e. It's quite awkward to get right

*hug* Thanks Jumble, does the top layer have to be a picture or can it be an open layer? I think mine was a filled layer or like blue or something so I don't know if that effects it or not?

It may not be what you wanted, but it is totally awesome

Thanks hehe my favorite is the lunatic one as well

[Jumble]

Amanda, I've just tried it with all types of layers (text, pic, fill, adjustment, empty) and it works on all of them

Thanks Jumble! I'm on the computer right now that doesn't have PS but I'll have to try it when I get back on my laptop

Oh wait another question, how will I know that it worked? Do you paste it or does it pop up or will all the layers get merged...
