Guest sixth. Posted January 15, 2006 Share Posted January 15, 2006 i have a question about making screen caps ive read many tutorials about print screening and just cropping and your done...seems simple but when i try to print screen it and i paste it into photoshop, the video cap from the video doesnt show unless the software i used to play my video is directly behind the place where the cap should be i tried to explain the best i can, some one please help me! i wanna make a movie gif but i cant because i cant screen cap it! T__T -nikki What program are you playing your video in? Because if you're using Windows Media, it's not going to work UNLESS you go to View > Plug-ins > Options. Click on the tab that says Performance and change the video acceleration to NONE. Click apply, okay and you shouldnow be able to take caps. An easier way to do it would just be to open up the video in Windows Movie Maker, which allows you to take screenshots easily. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest yeppmusic7 Posted January 15, 2006 Share Posted January 15, 2006 there's an easier way to make nice quality screen caps rather than print screening and cropping. Download virtualdub and make screen caps with that. There's an option in there for copying frames, once you choose that go to ps and paste. hey thanks alot! you are the greatest! *muahz* ^o^ -nikki What program are you playing your video in?

tiffbiffx3 Posted January 15, 2006 Share Posted January 15, 2006 how do u make ur fonts like this??...Daddy, guess what im pregnant credits to karinojjang Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest dendrobium. Posted January 15, 2006 Share Posted January 15, 2006 chanda I think karinojjang used pattern overlay to make the text look like that. You can do that too by right click on the text layer and choose blending option - pattern overlay - choose the pattern you want. BUT first you need to define that pattern first. EDIT - DEFINE PATTERN. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest dendrobium. Posted January 16, 2006 Share Posted January 16, 2006 ok i still couldnt get it bubbly letters like that...i dont have the pattern First of all, you need to create a pattern the way you want. If you want many colors like that, you can use the rectangle tool and do it. Just use different colors. You know what I mean? NEW IMAGE (you choose the size, not too big or too small.) RECTANGLE TOOL CHANGE TO THE COLOR YOU WANT DRAG IT. You choose how big the box should be. DO IT SEVERAL TIMES. Change colors each time so you can get the rainbow thingy. This is just one way to do it. To make it bubbly: Do as I said in my previous post and this time you add bevel and emboss thingy too. You can play around with it..how thick you want and the shadow and stuff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For the bubble just do what ___gone said For the colour, I would prefer using gradient overlay, rather than pattern overlay, but I guess there are different ways of doing it ^__^ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is some tutorials you can find on the net. It will give you idea for making icons and you'll learn the basic of making icons too. Go with LJ. I don't think we can tell exactly how Amber and Dolce made them. Wjhen you know the basic, you'll be able to make beautoful icons soon. I'm not helpful, I know... _______________________ _______________________ The ice-feeling of a graphic, I don't know how other does, but I use to combine different textures, color overlay and different blending option. Brushes help too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do it like c iZzLe gO zZz said. I have a tips, when you use textures, create a new layer below the textures and just add the brush you want. That way, the brush (color = black) you add will have same colors as your graphic. No need to change blending option if you want to. If you don't want to do it, just drag that layer over the top of the textures-layers. If you know this already...then ignore my post - Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pseudonym Posted January 17, 2006 Share Posted January 17, 2006 all graphics are based on brushes?? O_O i never knew that. denng im slow. That's not true. Not all graphics are based on brushes. Some graphic designers just blend pictures and the outcome is different. Others also create filters. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some graphic designers just blend pictures and the outcome is different. Others also create filters. Agree ! It's how you put things together, find suitable things/blend-options/filters. sweettart88 I'm not 100 % sure what starbrite did there, but I believe she used filters, i forgot what it was...
