I'm working on another one right now and then I'll make a third one, possibly a fourth one seeing as Dean has a new leather Jacket and Jensen as a cool leather jacket too.sigpic

Wow, now there are dinosauriers in Doctor Who? I really should watch the new episodes ...
Great WPs, Yamii! Like them both (the second especially for the triceratops *little fangirlie squee*). But I'm with Jumble, the first one looks ... a bit better.

Oooh Josi! That second wp looks very 'Jumbly' Care to share a tut for it?
Best line from the new Dr Who?
Spoiler:"The dinosaurs are driving the ship??"
"Don't be ridiculous!"
I enjoyed the ep, but I felt that the Doc was written a bit over the top ridiculous - he is supposed to be ultra intelligent, and they made him a bit stupid IMO

Pretty much too late for tut week but, as requested by Jumble, tut for this wallpaper:
Or at least, as best as I can reconstruct it. I fiddled a lot on the way to the final result with this one
Spoiler:
1. Open your canvas and fill (or leave filled) with white. Position the pictures of Castle & Beckett in the middle and use layer masks to blend them together and erase the backgrounds. You can be a bit rough with this because the textures will cover up a multitude of sins when you get to them! Desaturate them both.
2. The colour splashes behind them were a bit of a fiddle, so I hope this makes sense! I started in a new window with (believe it or not) the NBC peacock logo. I knew that this would give me the colours I wanted in roughly the right positions so it seemed easier to use that and mess around with it rather than do it from scratch manually. Anyway, in your new window, scale the logo down to about 100 pixels wide and then zoom right in until you can see the pixel grid (as I wanted this mosaic-y look). Use the motion blur (make sure you move the slider way down as you're zoomed in so much) to merge the colours in together. Take a screengrab of this zoomed-in view, and then paste that on your original canvas behind Castle & Beckett. Then use the scale and warp options from the edit > transform menu to make it fit nicely behind them.
3. Next, add this texture on a new layer and position at the bottom of the canvas, surrounding Castle & Beckett.
4. Now add this texture, desaturate and set to lighten, and position at the bottom, so that the paisley bit shows up over Castle. I think I upped the contrast to help bring it out too.
5. Duplicate that layer and invert it so that it's now black on white. Set this one to darken and position over the bottom of Beckett.
6. New adjustment layer > curves:
- Point 1: output 222, input 193
- Point 2: output 54, input 87 (or whatever you need to bring out the contrast nicely)
7. New adjustment layer > hue/saturation. Increase the saturation to +100, and the lightness to +25.
8. New adjustment layer > brightness/contrast. Reduce brightness to -32 and increase contrast to 57. All these steps are really about bringing the contrast and colours right up and brightening without losing definition.
9. Next add this texture, set to lighten and position.
10. Now a selective color layer, as follows:
- Reds: C 0, M +92, Y +29, B 0
- Blacks: C 0, M 0, Y -2, B +9
This just makes the reds and oranges more vibrant and yet again, beefs up the contrast (I love contrast!)
11. New layer, fill with #ebebeb and set to color burn (again to bring out the colours and contrast even more)
12. New adjustment layer > brightness/contrast. Up the brightness to 13 and the contrast to 20.
13. Make a stamp of the whole thing and use the motion blur on it, then set the layer to darken at 50%. Add a layer mask and erase the middle so that you get rid of the blurring over Castle & Beckett and the detail of your textures and the grid-marked colour splashes, but get a nice fading/smudging out effect to either side with the colours.
14. Next add this texture, set to darken. I wanted the detail part to the bottom left, but it's at the top right on the texture, so once I'd positioned it how I wanted it I duplicated the layer three times and moved these new three around so that the whole canvas was filled with the texture background.
15. New adjustment layer > curves:
- Point 1: output 181, input 166
- Point 2: output 69, input 82
16. Repeat step 11 and add yet another #ebebeb color burn layer.
17. Make a stamp of everything and sharpen it at this point.
18. Now add the text - font is Champagne & Limousines. It got a bit lost in amongst everything else so I duplicated the text layer to give it a bit more definition.
19. Next add this texture, set to screen, and position to the bottom left so that you get the effect of the colour and the light to the bottom left of Beckett.
20. And finally, add this texture, set to darken. Position to the bottom right of Castle and use a layer mask to erase most of it except for the flower. As with step 4, adjust the brightness/contrast a bit to make it show up better too.
And that's it. As you can see from all of that it really was one giant fiddle from start to finish until I got something I liked!sigpic
