WOHO! The amature photo shopper made something:P

Anyway, I was bored and wanted to learn to make userbars, so I made these. Enjoy:D( Yes I stole the Disco logo, if you have something better, post it please. )

Looks nice..

Them userbars, do they have any specific application to use in or are they just for forums and stuff..?


Discovery Userbars - BestFlyerHere - 02-22-2007

Nice! Mind if i use those?



Discovery Userbars - Nightfall - 02-22-2007

Excellent! Try sharpening the Discovery logo and either lighten or darken the background a bit.

Mostly Forums. What else would you use them for?

' Wrote:Nice! Mind if i use those?

Go ahead, its why I made them.

' Wrote:Try sharpening

*Bangs head on keyboard* Why didn't I think of that:P

EDIT: Newer versions with some of Nightfalls advice. What do you think?
(Added 20% sharpen on the Discovery Logo, added Black Stroke 1px, remove some of the extra blurs on the side)

I made another GoR one. Thanks to Nightfall for the sweet idea.

@Nightfall: Yes there is a difference between mine one and your one. Can you find it:D

:lol:

Except I typed 'Ghosts of Razgriz' and you used text smoothing (thus made the text blurry)?

OK, putting them together:

Here's two more:lol:
slightly different perspective of the coat of arms and your lines are gray+darker background red:rolleyes::lol:
yeah, and you got the text about 3 pixels to the left.:crazy::tease:

Good job, man! Just turn off the text smoothing there.

Well, I can publish the rest for the fun of it:

I was wondering what what causing that. I thought it was my eyes screwing up or something. Thanks:D

Also, a note. The Marque tool cuts off the 1px stroke line on the top of the userbar. I have to add it in manually with the pencil tool.:D

Also, what did you use to make her eyes brighter? Or did you stretch it?

Nightfall Wrote:yeah, and you got the text about 3 pixels to the left.

Ya a problem there, as you see my text is more.... Apart from each word. And my font I am using does not let me bring them closer together. I am using Visitor TT1 BRK. Which are you using?


Discovery Userbars - Nightfall - 02-23-2007

:lol:I didn't notice the brighter eyes, but it's because of the distortion to get a perspective.




edit: yeah, I forgot, use Ctrl+A to select the whole canvas size, no need to bother with the marquee. and it's your imprecision that cuts the one pixel (no biggie, happens to everyone)

So... HF feels left out. Could someone make one for them?

(I'm learning photoshop, now i just have to buy it. Any cheaper alternatives? After that, I won't make you do my dirty work)
