Guys,
Most of you already know how indispensable Photoshop brushes are when it comes to web and graphic design.
Examples of their use are everywhere. In this post I will show you how I used them to modify the original WordPress theme of this site and create something completely different.
Of course, for all modifications I used my own PREMIUM Photoshop brushes that are also available for sale in my little Photoshop brushes shop.
Don’t worry, commercial license is included with all brushes so you can use them in your commercial projects.
Background
First I changed the background and here is what Photoshop brushes did I use and where:

And here is how I used them to create banners:

So, to create banners I used:
As you can see, Photoshop brushes come really handy when you need to do web graphics.
I’d say, really really handy.

Well, we all knew it had to be done. We were just postponing it as much as possible.
Until today.
Yes, my dear returning visitors and friends, you are not on the wrong place. You are on Graphics-Illustrations.Com newly redesigned web site! :)
I did it because the amount of content by far overgrew the old design. Graphics-Illustrations.Com has more than 301 articles and more than 2,000 Comments?

It was hard to navigate through the site the way it was designed. Some if you even wrote me saying that it is not easy to find your way around the site.
So, I hope you will like it. Please let me know!

Image on the left is the original. And my blog (graphics-illustrations.com) is the re-vamped version of it.
Today, I was thinking about showing you how Photoshop brushes can be used in web design. To be more specific in web re-design. Or to be even more, like, truly specific, in re-design of a WordPress theme.
So, since I never was much of a programmer I figured I’d find some WordPress theme that at least resembles me of something that I might wanna use for my blog and then just fine-tune it until I get what I want.
And that’s what I did. This is the original theme. The name of the theme was “Waters edge” and this little thumbnail on top represents what it looked like when I downloaded it.
And this blog is what this theme looks like after the re-vamp.
So, let’s go and explain in more detail. Here is what brushes I used in order to re-design the existing WordPress theme and turn it into something new.

In this area I used the Photoshop Brush – Floral DUO (62)

In this area I used the Hearts Photoshop Brushes Set, 32

In this area I used the Swirls Floral brushes set, 42

In this area I used LITE FREE edition (available for download after joining GBG community) of following brushes:
1. Stickers
2. Custom brushes (brushes strokes)
3. Splatters (or Splatters and dripping ink)
4. Grunge stars
And voila!
One more example of Photoshop brushes usage. This time in WordPress design. I hope you liked it and that it will give you a piece of inspiration for your own work.
Have fun creating!

I’m like „crazy cat lady“ but only without cats, I’m the one with plenty of work to do. I’m kind a „crazy working lady“.
And I love cats! Oh, yesssss! And I can’t have one ‘cos I’m living on 4th floor and I have a big terrace without the proper fence. Not to mention that my husband is allergic to a cat fur. Sadly :(
Why I’m sayin’ it? Yesterday my friend Marina (the one who’s working as a part-time make-up artist and stylist) asked me to back her up in case of emergency while she is away (for a month or so). She works as a web designer in S&T company here in Zagreb. She is going to New Zealand with her husband for a whooooleeee month! Oh, boy, I’m so green eyed! :)
I used to back her up before, and it’s was pretty easy.
I think I’ll try to rest for next two days. Until Monday visit my blogs: 404 039 is the number, bsilvia.com and blogffiliate.com!
C’ ya in Monday!
You can download 3 (three) Christmas/New Year images for free on Blogffiliate.com!
