Photoshop: [XBOX]'s tutorial topic.
You might need some brushes.
Search google for [photoshop grunge brushes.]
Well back to it.
1. Make a new document (400x100)
400 width 100 heigh.
2.Reset your colors (D) Goto filters>renders>difference clouds.
Keep pressing ctrl-f until you got it how you want it.
3. Now make a new layer.
Add all your selected grunge brushes to it.
(If you don't know how to get your grunge brushes in photoshop:
1.Download your brushes.
2. Put it in the following folder "C:\Program Files\Adobe\Photoshop7.0\Presets\Brushes"
3. Open photoshop goto brush mode and open your brush selection.
4. Click the little arrow on the right of the box.
5. And pick the brush set you just downloaded.)
Back to the tutorial.
4. Add the brushes to the new layer.
5. And since the brush was supposed to be black.
Press ctrl-u and click colorize on the box that just appeared and set the lightness up now change your hue.
Otherwise, if it does have a color don't do that.
6. Set your layer options to "screen" or "overlay" or "multiply" (suggested).
7. Now to make the cut-out:
1. First get the picture you want a cut-out from.
2. Right-click the lasso tool and pick poly lasso tool from the box.
3. Select what you wanted selected.
4. Now since you selected what you need to cut-out if you press deleted you would delete what you wanted.
So press crtl-shift-I to invert your selection.
5. Then press delete.
6. And if you want to use the cut-out for other sigs too save it.
7. Now press crtl-a to select everything.
8. Now get back to the sig in progress and press ctrl-v to paste.
9. Now you need to resize it (most likely) press ctrl-t to do so.
10. Apply the tranformation and move it to where you want.
11. Now pick the "magic wand" to select the white around the cut-out and delete it.
12. Now you got that here are the things you might want added.
(Fake but good camoflague "Overlay layer blending")
( Weird ghostly thing set the blending to "multiply)
(Invertision to pictures [ has different results ] difference)
You might also want to change to ocpacy to look (faded)
13. Now you got a background and a background time to add some other extras.
14.Scanlines:
E1. Make a new photoshop document
(heigh = 2px width 1 px.)
E2. Now fill in ONLY ONE pixel box thingy.
E3. Now goto edit> define pattern.
And call it scanline or whatever.
E4. Make a new layer on your signature picture.
Now on layer flash effect goto pattern overlay and it should be one of the patterns.
E5: After you apply it change the ocpacy to around 15-50
Grid:
For grid instead make a 5 heigh by 5 width document and make a signle grid and define pattern.
You should also easre some of it the a grunge brush to look "grungy"
15. Now you got a little pattern
And other stuff.
Time to add the text and stuff.
16. First make a little box thing under the picture.
To do so you gotta select with the box select tool and Use the gradeint tool (for faded style)
Or paint bucket (through out)
And then add the "stroke flash layer effect"
Settings position : outside
Pixel-size: 1px.
Color: Anything you want.
17. Make the opacy of that layer a low number.
18. Type in the text and move it on top of your box you just made.
19. Now just make the border.
20. Right-click the box select tool and click coloum select side bordering.
Row select top-bottom bordering.
Now once you select use the brush tool and carelessly brush in the selection.
RESULTS:
Or:
You know the seizure version right?
You might need a little more practice to get it like that.
But for now make it simple [again]
This is very useful for sig and yea whatever now lets start.
1. First make a new photoshop document (at least 100x100 or whatever size you want)
2. Reset your colors (press d) and goto filters> renders> differnce clouds.
Get them how you want...
3. Goto Filters> Pixelate> Mosiac.
Cell size 8-12.
4. Goto Filters> Renders> Radial blur.
Settings : Zoom mode on 25%.
5. Now goto Filters> Stylize> Find edges.
If you really want to define the edges press ctrl-F.
6. Now invert the image (ctrl- i)
7. Then change the hue to whatever you want.
To display the hue cange box press ctrl-U and click coloize also.
You should come out with:
Unless if you used a different hue.
And if you do a radail blur on zoom and 100%
You'll get :
Later will be #2 blending and cutting.
1. Make a new document.
2. Goto filters>renders>difference clouds.
Keep pressing ctrl-f until you got what you want.
3. Then press crtl-l to control levels.

8. Now set the layer option on layer 2 to "overlay"
On my result picture I have duplicated the layer2.
Results:
Made a little CHEAP sig out of it:
1. Starfeild.
Sometimes in a sig you would wnat a tiny one to appear.
This is how you do it.
A1. Make a new document 400x400 whatever.
A2. Make the background all black.
A3. Goto filters> noise> add noise.
Make it monochromic and make the noise a really low number like about 10.47

Heres a specail one by me :
OKAY!
1. First thing after you make your Background (if you didn't make any free ones are here: http://gsof.gigawebshare.com/forums/vie ... php?t=1114
2. Now after that, color the background as you normally do (color balance most suggested)
3. Now heres the part I wasted all my time on, make a new layerlayer blending "overlay"
4. Now here's the deal, after you set the layer style to "overlay" just put in either clouds with a ANY color you want (you can still colorize later) (If you colorize later, I suggest to use hue/saturation)
Now you done! It'll come out like this:
Now if you don't like that, use a color gradient on a layer of "overlay" blending.
Any color you want and can't still colorize later.
And you'll come out with:
You can do the gradient style multiple times with different colors, unlike the clouds, and you'll get my current signatures (On. the. track) and "mixed worlds" use that style, I barely use the clouds style, and gradient is used more.
:OKAY!
