Paint.NET :: Creating A Halo Effect
Aug 14, 2013What is the best way to create an angelic halo effect around a person's head. Any differences if you would want to make it look a little bit like the sun? (but more like a halo)?

How do most of you get rid of this effect? I can only see this in my game and I am trying to figure out a way to guarantee that none of my PNG artwork has this.
how did he make that halo effect?

View 4 Replies View RelatedI have been creating icons for a 3D program for nearly two years now and used to send the icons in PSD format to developers. Just recently I have been sending the icons as BMP at their request but the icons now seem to have the halo effect creeping into them. They want BMP files and they use the upper left pixel of the icon to determine the transparency in the icon as they need a gradient background, and active state and the icons are desaturated when not used.
Anyway, here is the procedure I am trying to solve this but something is going wrong.
1. I use a 3D program to make 3D objects then render the image with a white background at 300x300 as a JPEG. No Antialiasing.
2. I open a new image in CS2, drag the rendered image into it then use the magic wand with antialiasing turned off? and tolerance of 30-40 to remove the white background.
3. Then I use Layers>matting>Defringe to remove any artefacts. At this point the icon looks fine.
4. I resize the image to 26x26 and choose Bicubic interpolation. Finally I drag it into a PSD document as a layer.
5. To get the image into a usable format I have a background layer of pink (RGB: 255,0,255) so that it can define the transparency then I save it as a 24bit BMP.
Problem is, when the developer puts it into the program it has a noticeable pink halo around it. I cannot do any more to remove antialiasing which he tells me is the problem.
Changing file format is not an option...has to be BMP?

So I duplicated the background layer and created a mask over the player. Then I selected the background layer, added lens blur, and darkened it.
The problem is that this step blurs the image of the subject in the background, causing it to extend out beyond the masked image of the subject on the foreground layer, creating a ghostly "halo" effect.
I've tried creating an inverted mask on the background layer, but that doesn't work.

I did a selection which I masked, on Stonehenge. Then I tweaked the sky quite a bit. However, the actual Henge (when it is unmasked) seems to have a small light "halo" around it. (Not sure hot to attach a pic) I've tried several things, but none do a great job. Tried feathering the selection a few pixels, tried burning the halo, tried "smudging" the halo into the sky, but it still looks a bit unnatural. There may not be a good solution and the picture looks OK, but I think it would look much better without the halo.

View 12 Replies View RelatedI have a gray scale tiff image that will be printed on a corrugated fibreboard carton. I need to show what this image will look like at 45 DPI when viewed on a screen and printed out in a PDF file. How would I show the actual 45 DPI in the image itself? I Have seen images before that are in 45 or other DPI but for the life of me can't figure out how to do it. I have Photoshop 4 here at home on my laptop and am about ready to pull my hair out trying to figure this out. I know if I had a LaserWriter, I would just assign a DPI to the image when it goes to the printer and it would print out at 45 DPI. This effect is what I need to be seen on the screen.

View 6 Replies View RelatedI'm not sure if this is part of PS 6.0 or some kind of technical glitch I caused but I've been using PS for a while now, but never tried doing a rounded bar via a rectangular marque feathered and then filled. However when I do this it gives a gradient effect around and outside of the marque. A "halo" if you will. On top of this it doesn't fill it completely. I can go back over it with the other paint tools and it dyes it more, yet still gives it the halo effect, but more pronounced.

View 4 Replies View RelatedI have created have gotten great feedback, and were the result of poking around. I dont know how to use all the tools yet..
I need to create stardust for a few of my images. I want it to look like a sparkle of showering stars. I have no idea how to do this.
I found an online tutorial about making a new layer in white and using the airbrush/smudge tool...but it didnt give me the effect I want, it looked like a white trail of stars. I want the stardust to be slightly transparent, almost ghostly, so you can see the background image.
Stage 1: I wish to mark up an existing image with transparent, highlighter-like markings. I've come close with paths, stroking with brush, and applying a gradient map (with alpha adjustment), but I would like to get the density of the coloring to vary and I haven't been able to find a combination of brush and gradient adjustment that will accomplish this in a visible way. Specifically, I would like the center of the broad line more transparent and the edges less so.
Am I using the best approach?
Stage 2: Carrying Stage 1 a bit further, I would like the edges of the broad line to be discontinuously more intense than the center, so that they appear as edges. This seems like a gradient map function on the line left by the brush (standard fuzzy, (19)(21x21)) but again, I haven't found a gradient that will do it. I've tried splitting the map, etc, but I may just lack the experience. Or this might be the wrong approach altogether.
i love the paint splatter in the background! I was wondering if there is a plugin or a brush that can supply that look.

[URl]
At 4:35 into it, the author begins creating the shiny parts of the diamonds by drawing a path, copying it and then rotating the copy ninety degrees.
I'm having trouble just creating that first path the way it's done in the tutorial. First, it says to choose a brush of 17, make sure it's white, then switch to the pen tool and draw a straight white line. However, mine doesn't look like that, how it splays outs. I just get a straight white line. Then, when I try to tranform the copy by rotating it 90 degrees I get an error message saying "Could not rotate because the initial bounding rectangle is empty."
