One day, when I really really really really procrastinate on my schooling, then I'll put together a FAQ thing. Until then.................-lazy-

LiL-Dragon; It's basically like a vector but instead of using color to make the actually person, they just made the person all white. I recommend Photoshop Illustrator CS2 for something like that. I mean you could use PS, but it'll take some time.

well for starters, how did you make your sig?

make the canvas size bigger when you're done with a banner and add the text to the very first layer and then stroke it. Save it as GIF and wala.

Edit: This is also sometimes referred to as the 'High Key' effect, but is generally done with black and white images.

how do you set it to 'overlay'? what's overlay?

[Guest babyxdestiny]

^ on your layer palette, theres a drop down that says normal (its right under the layers tab). switch it to overlay by using the dropdown.

[Guest psquare6806]

How would you get these effects...like under the picture..the swirls?

Those are probably filters. Filter > Twirl maybe, or mess around with the different filters.

Does anyone know how to make the pix like this?

You Design your graphic, if your graphic was 400x100, copy and paste it into a transparent canvas that's bigger, like 450x150. Add your text and go to File > Save for Web and then save it as a GIF or PNG-24. Make sure transparency is checked.

Switch to ImageReady. Depends how many colors you have, if it's just a black and white image, you could set the number of colors to 100 or something, but it's a lot of colors, make a new copy of the GIF, and keep the original one. Test out different numbers. (I.e. 240, 230, 220, etc.)

[jenny]

^Thanks Quynh! =) I'll test it out.
