F-list: IGNORE THIS ♥

2007-09-05T23:05:10Z

Sorry if you were cut. My friendslist was getting too long and it looked really disorganized on my profile page. You either didn't comment enough, didn't update your site, have stolen from me, or we just didn't click. but if you were cut, please remove me from your friends list as soon as possible!

On another note, if you feel that I should add you back, tell me why you feel you should be added. I'm gonna be reasonable here!

Today we're going from
this to
Made using Photoshop CS
Not translatable, sorry.
All of it is under the cut :)

Others made with this tutorial (with varied settings):

Step One - First, pick an icon that has very dull coloring seeing as this tutorial will brighten your image immensely! (hope i spelled that right) I recommend picking a photo that has either good lighting or is outdoors. lighten & do whatever you need to make your base. sharpen. This is what I got for a base:

Step Two - Duplicate your base and set it to Screen at 20%

Step Three - Make a new Selective Color Adjustment Layer. Make the settings as follows (you may have to adjust the reds + yellows or greens+blues to fit your image)

REDS
C: -100
Y: +100

YELLOWS
C: -26
Y: +100

GREENS
C: -100
M: -100

WHITES
C: +100
M: -100
Y: -100
B: -66

NEUTRALS
C: -3
M: -17
Y: -18
B: +15

BLACKS
B: +100

Step Four - Make another selective color adjustment layer. Again, you may need to adjust the settings to fit your image.

REDS
C: -100
Y: +100

YELLOWS
C: -65
Y: -100

WHITES
C: +100
M: -22
Y: -100
B: -19

BLACKS
B: +100

Step Five - Make a new Color balance adjustment layer. Make the settings as follows (you may need to adjust this too)
Midtones -14/+22/+17
Shadows -40/+2/+28
Highlights -24/-22/-29
make sure preserve luminosity is checked.

Step Six - Make a new brightness/contrast adjustment layer. Make the settings
Brightness +10
Contrast +10

&Voila :)
Hope it was easy enough to follow...
Please show me your results.

Today we're going from
this to
Made using Photoshop CS
Not translatable, sorry.
All of it is under the cut :)

Others made with this tutorial (with varied settings):

Step One - First, pick an icon that has very dull coloring and is outdoorsy-looking. this is very important! If you pick an icon that is already bright, it will turn out with a horrible contrast and it will just look terrible! The picture i picked had hardly any color, but had potential to have a good result (it had a nice background that when saturation was raised, really brought out the color). Crop, lighten, brighten your base. Whatever you'd like, just don't sharpen or raise the saturation!

Step Two - Make a new Hue/Saturation adjustment layer. Raise the Saturation to anywhere from 20-50. I used 50 for my base.

Step Three - Make a new Selective Color Adjustment Layer. Make the settings as follows (you may have to adjust the reds + yellows to fit your image)

REDS
C: -100
Y: +100

YELLOWS
C: -100
Y: +100

GREENS
C: +100
M: -100
Y: +100
B: +100

BLUES
C: +100
M: +100
Y: +100
B: +18

WHITES
C: +42
M: -32
Y: -100
B: -100

NEUTRALS
C: -3
M: -19
Y: -18

BLACKS
B: +100

Step Four - Make a new fill layer and fill with #FFEC3B. Set it to softlight at %13

Step Five - Make a new fill layer and fill with #FC8585. Set it to overlay at %13

&Voila :)
Hope it was simple enough.
Please show me your results.
