Photoshop brush - ransom note

Photoshop brush – ransom note

Here is a good idea on how to make a birthday party invitations – use this ransom note Photoshop brush and put together a following note:

“If you don’t show up at my birthday party at date XX:XX:XX place XXXXX I will be extremely disappointed and apart from that there will be no other consequences whatsoever.”

OK. I know it would be much better to use the similar ransom font, but hey! I had to make some kind of introduction and you must admit that the idea itself has a glimpse of humor in it, innit?

Another usage of this brushes would be Digital Scrapbooking!

How to Install and Use Brushes in Photoshop (basics+video)

During the last few days I received a number of questions on installation and usage of the Photoshop brushes.

So, here is a short tutorial on installation and usage :)

Please note:
This tutorial is made on a PC. Since all Photoshop Brushes are Mac compatible, the procedure to install them onto Mac is similar.

After you download brushes from this blog (or FULL versions from my little shop), a file with .abr extension (if they’re in .zip file you’ll need to uncompress them first) must be placed in the following folder:
Program files > Adobe > Photoshop *** > Presets > Brushes

NOTE: These brushes are compatible with Photoshop Elements and with Paint Shop Pro. (Here is the tutorial on how to use them in Paint Shop Pro).

Installing new Photoshop brushes is quite simple.

  1. Download the zip file to any folder on your local disk
  2. Unzip the .abr file and copy it to Program files > Adobe > Photoshop > Presets > Brushes

After they’re downloaded, select brush tool from the main toolbar and open Brushes Window (or just press F5 to get the brushes window)
01.jpg

Click the arrow in the upper right corner to navigate through the Brushes Window (small arrow in the upper right corner)
02.jpg

Now select “Load Brushes …” in order to activate the downloaded ones.
03.jpg

Select the brush and click on “Load”.
04.jpg

New Brushes will show up in „Brushes Window“

Select the Brush colour and play with the parameters. Now it’s all up to you and your imagination.

Voila!

Fight Animal Cruelty

October 21, 2007 |  by  |  Announcements  |  , , ,  |  1 Comment

I love cats. In fact, I was a roommate with two of them. Therefore, out of love and respect for animals I fully support the idea behind this site: pet-abuse.com.

Unfortunately, I was a witness of animal cruelty because one of my roommate cats was a victim. Today, I sill find it very hard to talk about it although both of my cats died in their old age (over 16 years). In this post, I put a picture, which will say much more.

Halloween Photoshop brushes

Leaves are turning yellow and gold,
in the shadow of a tree it’s cold,
although it’s a sunny day
this year is getting old”

Am I good or what?! :-P Just kidding. But the wind blows. Fall disguised the town. A genuine Autumn. The one that includes yellow pumpkins in the field that I can not see because I live in a city and all I see from my window is more concrete buildings that surround us. But, at least i can imagine what it looks like somewhere in the country right now.

Halloween Photoshop brushes

Last decade, although it was never even un-official holiday, a number of Croatian population celebrates Halloween. Conservative part of our population is against that new tradition because of the official religious catholic holiday All Saints, that takes place at 1st of November day when people pay visit to cemeteries and remember their friends and relatives that are no longer with us.

31 of October and 1st of November, collision between religion and tradition on one side and new “imported” habits on the other side. And some say that Halloween is nothing but a consumers society festival… Anyways, I would prefer to have holiday every day :) as long as it makes people happy and not frustrated.

So, after scary and bloody T-Shirt accompanied by Trick or Treat bag that I made with my own custom made unique Photoshop brushes I made a set of Halloween Photoshop brushes.

Photoshop in a Nutshell (In a Nutshell (O’Reilly))

Photoshop 4 is reknowned for its powerful painting and selection tools, along with its color adjustment controls, multiple layer and channel capabilities, and special effect filters. These features make Photoshop the standard for desktop image design and production — enthusiasts in all graphics industries turn to Photoshop again and again to refine the images that define our world.

These same features make for an extremely complex product. Photoshop is sprawling and immense, catering to an incredible quantity of graphic-editing needs. Even experienced designers familiar with most of the features can have trouble remembering every detail.

Unlike most Photoshop books — which try to teach Photoshop — Photoshop in a Nutshell is a detailed reference that will enable Photoshop 4 users to make informed choices as they work, eliminating time spent searching for just the right combination of filters and effects, and reducing the risk of incorrect editing decisions.This book defines and describes every tool, command, palette, and sub-menu in Photoshop 4. Each item is accompanied by a list of its most common uses and misuses, as well as production-oriented background information. Where appropriate, the common uses contain step-by-step techniques, and the common misuses include experience-based advice and solutions.

There are four sections:Photoshop’s toolbox, including the Options Palette settings for each toolThe menu commands, including every item of every dialogThe floating palettes, including the function that each palette provides, as well as the ramifications of every value and palette submenu.

The information in this book is organized in an encyclopedic reference fashion, following the structure of Photoshop itself. All topics are easy to find and fully cross-referenced, allowing you to intuitively explore the cause-and-effect relationships of each command. Any serious Photoshop 4 user will find Photoshop in a Nutshell an invaluable guide.
