I'm trying to recreate either one of the backgrounds in the 2 images below. I have a fairly good knowledge around Photoshop. I've tried rendering and filtering and just couldn't reach a relatively similar background to either one of these backgrounds.
I ve been playing around with Photoshop 8.0 for awhile now and ive been trying to make some cool abstracts. But all the tutorials i do i come out with bad results or just something i dont like.
So what is the best technique for making abstracts with photoshop and where can i learn it?
So I have a nice abstract background that is in tones of green. However I want it to be in tones of maroon. I have tried various filters etc etc to change the colour, however it seems to change the colour but some areas just go dark. What is the best way to achieve this affect and how do I do it?
I followed a tutorial on how to make abstract images using abstract brushes. One of the attachments is from the tutorial. The other is my result.(you will know which is whose; I used the same brush)
There must be some brush settings I need to adjust, but the tutorial doesn't say anything about them. What am I doing wrong here?(messing with shape dynamics and scattering produced a better result, but it was too bright and still looked terrible.)
When I change the opacity on my text layer, the text does not fade. It disolves instead. The resolution was terrible, became worse and then the text suddenly dissapered.
I don't think it was the disolve type either when it is set in that mode. However,I tried changing the mode anyway
I changed the mode to normal, divide,. overlay, burn, soft light, subtract. Whatever I tried it made no difference.
I have recently discovered that there is more to gradients in GIMP than I had previously thought: the different varieties of pre-sets, as well as the"off-set" tool. How to make a new gradient of your own? Any other cool stuff? (Being able to manipulate gradients would be cool.)
I have made- 1 image with a black line on white background saved as xcf- 1 image with a black letter "A" on white background saved as xcfBoth images are rectangulars. I scaled the height of both images to the same value.
Output should be 1 image - with white background:
- one rectangular consisting of the old 2 rectangulars- area is the sum of the area of the 2 old rectangulars- on left side the "line" image - on right side the "A" image - new image can be saved as xcf
Looking for answer in simply consecutive row of commands like:
GIMP > file > open file: image with line > right click on image > image > scale image > ...GIMP > file > open file: image with letter > ...
Is there any way to make a template? Say I have a made to order pair of shorts and want to be able to edit on different types of fabric, is there any way to edit the area on the shorts where I want to put the fabric, so I can do it with various types of fabric without having to spend a great deal of time?
On the same pair of shorts for instance, where the area would be the exact same of editing space I would need from the fabric pattern to edit on, is there any way to make a template of sorts of that space on the shorts to use?
I want to make the picture on the left into the one like the picture on the right. These are not the pictures I will use but are some I got off the web.

The image in the middle is my .gif, and it is playing on the football field/players/text background. However, when I save the .gif, the background is the 1st frame, and then disappears from the 2nd frame onward as the .gif plays. How can I make the .gif play on the background?
In gimp I have imported an image. I then duplicate the image four times (I am trying to make four different crops of the same image). But every time I crop one corner of the image, it automatically crops ALL OF THE OTHER DUPLICATES TOO!!!! I have tried just importing the same image four times as individual layers, but that doesn't work either! Why does one layer affect all of them?!
I am using the newest version of Gimp. Everything is great, it runs smooth and not many crashes..But! I cant make brushes or Patterns. in the older versions all you had to do was select what you wanted as a brush/pattern name it, and it would appear
Now, I get this Error: (<unknown> : 18850791) Procedure execution of file-gbr-save failed: Could not open 'C:Documents and SettingsNorseman.gimp-2.8/brushes/mybrush14.gbr' for writing: No such file or directory
Am I missing something? Do I need to reinstall Gimp?I havent loaded any new patterns or brushes, so I dont know why its not working?
I need to make a Button For a wiki and Im not sure how to they want it circular with a image in it but not sure how i should do it heres a example of what they want just a diff. image. it just needs to be a circle and cant have any Background so it has to have a transparent background except for the image it self .
So whenever I open up Gimp and then a new image, the layer for the background don't show up. > [URL]..
I've this window with all the tabs for the brushes, patterns etc and when I want to make the layers visible, I've to drag the layers window to the tabs and then drag it back to where it first was.. (it's quite hard to explain )
[URL]....
so basically, the layers don't show unless i do something what can i do about this?
I started out in Gimp, did some font work. Second, exported file out, to use Microsoft publisher for something. Is it possible to make file adaptable to Gimp again, cause I realize I need to manipulate the font, and put something else in. But I'm guessing once (if I even can) put the file back in Gimp..I'm guessing I won't be able manipulate the font..
image editing in general, so I'm not sure what how to really say what mean because I don't know the correct terms (If there are any).
The most I can do to clarify what I mean is offer two examples. The first is a picture I found:
[URL]
The sunlight hits her head at the very top right of the image and transitions from white (direct sunlight) to brown (indirect sunlight) to black (almost no sunlight). Also, the light directly touches her hands and legs (white) and then transitions to indirect (pink).
The second example I can offer is on this very forum. On the header, if you look at the larger GIMP dog balloon (I think they're dogs, anyway...) you can see the white oval on top of the purple-ish nose. If you look at the top of the nose, right before it transitions to the black outline, you see an almost reflection-like effect.
Is there a function in GIMP to do this? Or, at least, some sort of work-around?
