PHOTOSHOPPING

Since I happen to have slightly more free time than last year, I have used some of it to look at increasing my photoshop skills. Coincidentailly, I have found a load of quality tutorials. Since the two opportunities coincided, Ive put some of them to use here. The tutorial links are also included - only fair to hand out credit where its due!

Since the website is nearing its 2 year anniversary, its due for a redesign. The new logo is also below, though then new site wont be online for the moment.

The retro curves tutorial is a useful one for playing with brush properties, masking and warping. Always useful stuff.

The "grunge city" link is a pretty interesting link - with a few photoshop brush set links. Worth it just for that.

The bottle tutorial is another good tutorial for compositing elements together, and altering photographic elements; what photoshop was designed for. Not complicated steps, but their combination creates a pretty cool image.

Anyway, I think thats enough for the moment, there might be another update soonish.
