Make 3-D images

First open up photoshop and the picture you are going to use. Heres the picture that i will be using:


Next step is to duplicate the layer and is to set the top layer's blending mode to diffrence. i know its black but that will get fixed in a sec so dont worry


Then press Ctrl+T to go into transform mode. right click and click Perspective.


Now try to make the right points taller than the left points, but try no to make it too distorted


Now go to the Chanels Pallet. Then select Red. Now go to Image>Apply Image and set these settings:
(note if you cant see the settings you change the Layer to background, the Chanel to RGB, and the Blending to normal.)

Now go back to the Chanels Pallet and select RGB. Then go back to the Layers Pallet and set the blending mode to normal and voila! your finished!

Svar/ Spoink, that's CRAZY actually works with the 3D glasses.
Gotta keep this alive, sorry for no screenshots atm.
--This is a guide for flamed text, been a while since I did this I'll try remembering anyway-Credit goes to wherever I learnt it from a few years ago, sorry for not remembering.

1)Open up Photoshop and start a new file.
2)Set your canvas size, something like 500x 200
3)Make sure your foreground colour is black and then using the paint bucket tool, make ur canvas background is a dark colour, or get a dark BG you have already created.
4)Set your foreground colour to white now, and click on the 'A' text tool.
5)Type whatever you need to like your username.
6)Go to Filter-->Stylized-->Wind-->OK, and then go to Image-->Rotate Canvas--> 90 CW.
7)Repeat until all sides have been 'winded'.
8)Image-->Mode--> Grayscale. OK
9)Image-->Mode--> Indexed Colour. OK/Flatten
10)Image-->Mode--> Color Table--> BLACK BODY. Apply.
11)Image-->Mode--> RGB Color. OK.
12)Look at your finished project and pat yourself on the back.

Here's a first draft I made for my friends record label.

Don't worry about the extra flames on top, I added that part via a different method. More guides coming soon.

Etch-a-Stetch your photos YAY!!!

First, let's start off with the blank Etch-a-Sketch:


I took this photo myself, but you can use it if you want. You could also buy and scan one if you didn't have a digital camera.

Step 1: Open up the image that you want to add into the Etch-a-Sketch. This time we're going to use a nice photo of a mother and her two kids.

With the image open, go to IMAGE > MODE > GRAYSCALE to remove all the color from the photo.

Step 2: After the image has been grayscaled, apply the "Photocopy" filter by clicking FILTER > SKETCH > PHOTOCOPY. I selected a detail of "1" and a darkness of about "40", but you pick whatever looks best to you. You can stop here, or you can play with other filters. Try using "Conte Crayon", with a foreground level of "14" and a background level of "7".
Your image should look something like this:


Step 3: Now, open your blank Etch-a-Sketch image. Using either the magnetic lasso or magic wand selection tools, select the inside of the Etch-a-Sketch (the gray part). Make sure that your selection gets right up next to the red without including it. Now, go to SELECT > FEATHER and enter a value of 1-5 pixels, depending on the resolution. (In our case, 1 pixel is enough). This will make the image you paste into the Etch-a-Sketch look more realistic.

Step 4: Switch back to the photo that we'll be pasting (the family) and hit CTRL+A to select the whole canvas, then CTRL+C to copy the image. Switch back to the Etch-a-Sketch that has the feathered selection in place.

Step 5: With the Etch-a-Sketch image up, hit CTRL+SHIFT+V (or EDIT > PASTE INTO) to paste the sketched image into the selection on your Etch-a-Sketch. Now, when you move the image around, it will appear "underneath" the edge of the Etch-a-Sketch, via a Photoshop layer mask. Pretty slick.

Step 6: Finally, with the sketched image in place and its layer selected in the "Layers" panel, change its blend mode to "Multiply" (this option is available right at the top of the "Layers" panel). Adjust the opacity if you want and you should come up with something like this:

That's it! Feel free to mess with the filters, blend modes, etc. to come up with something even better. Another way to do it is to simply start with the blank Etch-a-Sketch, select the pencil tool with a charcoal gray color, and draw with the mouse. Just make sure you don't lift your hand!
