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

[josiane]

Woohoo! Thanks to the wonderful Oma, I have finally successfully blended images!



*little dance of joy*

Now nothing can stop me

[Oma-1]

Wooooooohoooooooooo!

*does the happy dance for Josiane!*




Edit: I really liked the Grace sig you posted in the family thread! Wouldn't mind seeing a blended version

Yeah, I'll redo it with my newly acquired blending powers Yay!

[josiane]

Ta-da! Have just redone the Grace sig and also the CotG pushing through the Stargate one where I was really unhappy I couldn't blend too - look how much better they look!





I like blending

Edit: and now I'm going to bed... enough gimpage for one day!

[Oma-1]

They look wonderful! Well done! I'd say you had a great gimpage day today


Anyone know how to use the gradient button? I want to put a colour gradient on a background but I can't figure out how to.....wait......just thought of something......d'oh! How stupid! It's a click and drag Never mind.

jumble65's new penguin sig reminded me of another GIMP brush that I ran across that is perfect for shippers.

It's a penguin brush. Really, really cute too.

Those are fantastic! Thanks! You wouldn't happen to know of any good fish ones would you?? *hopeful grin*

Edit: Don't worry - I binned the google search and just searched deviant art - I found loads!

D'oh! I couldn't figure out why you would want fish and then I remembered....

Fishing!!!!!

Here is an Asian design brush that has some koi fish: Asian design brush

Other fish:

Tropical fish brush

Cartoon fish brush


Not fish, but still could be shippy - Dogtags brush: Dogtags brush

For anyone who uses GIMP and needs brushes, here is the link to all of the GIMP brushes at deviant art: GIMP brushes - deviant art

I need gimp help... I'm having difficulty blending images. I tried the tute that someone posted here a few pages ago (sorry, can't remember who!) but I can't get it to work! When I add the second image into the overlay layer and try to blend it, the second image just goes white. Can't seem to work out how to get it to show the actual image - have been fiddling with transparency etc but nothing works Can anyone help? I'm probably just being really stupid here...

Can anyone tell me how to do this in PS?

Thanks! I did - feeling quite proud of myself And it's all down to you! ((((Oma))))

Cool, thanks for all the brushes Melora! That's my next gimp challenge now I've got blending and textures down - learning brushes

This is my favorite thing I made in my last livejournal post.

Some icons and banners can also be found there.

I'm having trouble with the fish one by Silenoth, keep getting 'file is corrupt'
I've downloaded it twice, but it won't work. The cartoon fish one works ok. Do you know of any other fish one's I could try?
