*If u mean by shapes like real shapes this is the tool

Adding effect :
You can google sparks , lines , lences etc and puting that in blend mode that fits your needs

Render :

Took the weapon from here:
(http://dota.eurobattle.net/la/forum/index.php?action=dlattach;topic=164786.0;attach=9996;image)

And the "background":
(http://dota.eurobattle.net/la/forum/index.php?action=dlattach;topic=164786.0;attach=9996;image)

The actual background is with the Smudge Tool + the brushes that connects the weapon XD


I hope you like it
Cheers

Guys about Lagi' signature, i need to know how to make some parts of picture to be invisible, so for that since i use online editors i need names of options for that effect. Can you give me list like: [on pixlr] Adjustment/Hue and saturation../Adjustment/Color balance..... something like that i need
In photoshop we call it transparency or we get that effect by erasing part or mixing with blending modes xD
I just tried pixlr online and there is no effect  that you looking for , just allready blended overlays.If im correct you making or want to make popout signature so you need transparency.
Myb this help

If you dont have a transparent layer under the layer you erase parts, it will fill it with default background color, so make a transparent layer under it.

But if you don't have photoshop at all, i don't know how it works in pixlr or similar online things. Aos you have to use a file format at save, which is able to handle transparency, like .png. with jpg you will never be able to get transparent things.

start using photoshop srsly :D at least for sigging... other software and especially browser editors limits you too much.
Title: Re: SOTW #62
Post by: DatFace on May 07, 2015, 01:54
Yeap efko, you need photoshop for some different "styles", i created a sig with pixlr but it was the same as the iron man and boring :/
Title: Re: SOTW #62
Post by: Bart on May 07, 2015, 19:35

500*500 is not really a sig anymore, thats true. But if you want, I'm not against it. We can rename it to SPOTW anytime. (Small Picture Of The Week :D )  :P

Post by: 1QuestioN! on May 08, 2015, 17:19
I make it so big(500x500 is only a document since i need transparency signature itself is much smaller) coz is naturally fits my render size and if i made it smaller all detail will be gone so nwm about this one i will join next one with proper size.
