Photoshop Effect And Tutorial

For quite a while, I've been meaning to write this wrap up post that compiles all the available PSD files that you can download from this blog. I'll keep updating this post (depending on my schedule) to reflect the latest uploaded PSDs.

This tutorial will show you how to create a photo made of words or random letters of the alphabet.

I am actually pretty excited to show you this effect. I'm calling it the Halftone Wave Photo Effect. I think it is really cool and will work very well on a poster or flyer. I imagine in my head, it would be like a rock concert flyer, some cool party invitation..or something like that. But this effect can be used beyond my imagination. You are all smart people and I'm sure you can figure out the

So, bookmark this blog or follow us if you would like to come along and enjoy the ride. The more the merrier, isn't that what they always said. For today, I decided to call this coloring effect, Faded Spring.

It's an undeniable fact that everybody can sketch. Whether it's a nice sketch or not..now that's a whole other story. That is why we have technology or more specifically, an image editing program called Photoshop. And our tutorial today will show you how to turn a digital photo into a nice pencil sketch image. You'll learn how to create a black and white pencil sketch. Also, you'll have the

One of the things I love to do is to collect fonts. If that is one of your passion too, then I hope you'll enjoy this new selection of fonts I've compiled exclusively for the readers of this blog. Some of the fonts are designed to be in large scale. These fonts are great for big poster design where you can appreciate each detail, every curve and corner of the font. They could be useful for your

I've been posting PSD file every Tuesday for two weeks in a row now. I might as well start calling this event PSD Tuesday..like that song Ruby Tuesday. {Well, to be honest I wasn't really familiar with that song until someone sang it on American Idol}. Enough with my rambling. I'm calling today's color effect, Dark Chocolate. Apply this effect to the right photo, you'll see the similarity with

Whatever your purpose is, I hope you're gonna like the outcome of this coloring on your photo. It's not complicated and I know you want to try it.

Like every other post, it's like an obligation for me to type in a short introduction. Sure, you can go ahead, look at the picture and figure out instantly what this post is all about. But then, it wouldn't look so nice in terms of presentation or space utilization right?. So, today's tutorial is about creating borders in Photoshop. We are gonna learn to make two types of borders. The first one

Not many of us buy picture frame anymore. Most of the things are digital these days. So, it's only natural for me to write this tutorial on how to create a simple border or frame for your digital photo. Everybody posted pictures in Facebook or blogs but not many posted pictures with borders and frames as cool as what I'm about to show you later. So, why not be different (or if your prefer to call

You may have your own way of doing it. There is no right or wrong. The government can't control the way we do grunge (at least this statement is still true in my country). Grunge is the art of appreciating the flaws in everything we see in the world. Stain, dirt, scratch and rust are some of the imperfections that make grunge so perfect (isn't it ironic?) If I may summarize what grunge is in my

Vintage vs. retro, is there any difference between these two? I'm sure Google will have the answer to this question. Some of us may even have their very own opinion on this. Whatever it is, let's not argue about it here. Because today, I'm going to share with you a bunch of color palettes which I found very interesting and beautiful. Call them vintage colors or if it suit you more, you can

What do I know about color harmony? Probably not enough to make you understand. But all of us were born with the natural talent to identify beauty when we see it. We might interpret things differently though. So, you can agree with me with these collection of color combo or we can agree to disagree. These are some of the color palettes that I really like {We, @ Best Photoshop Tutorials, think

Perhaps a good photography practice is to try your best to avoid getting a lens flare on your captured image. But sometimes, for a twisted artistic reason we want to get that lens flare on our image. Now, if you're really good with your camera, maybe you can play around with the settings and figure out the perfect angle to get that lens flare effect. However, if you're still struggling with that

If you've been checking out this blog and realize there's no update for the past 2 weeks. Don't worry, it hasn't been abandoned yet. No matter how much fun I have in real life, I always come back here. Today, I come out with this fun and colorful project. I'd like to call it Project Pop Art. Of course it doesn't define pop art as a whole, but I guess there's certain element in this project that I

Let me explain a little bit about my retro gradient coloring. It is actually a collection of photo colorings that I thought can safely be considered as somewhat retro or classic. All the color effects are achieved using gradient map in Photoshop. I've created some psd files for you to download. I know most of you already familiar with using PSD file, but for some who's still trying to figure it

Somewhere out there, I believe there exist some of us with a slight obsession over lomo effect. Lomography is associated with vibrant colored images, sometimes blurry and highly saturated. With the vignettes framing the shot, it just makes the photo more unique and special in its own way. I could have written another tutorial in this Photoshop Blog about creating lomography effect in Photoshop,

We always love the art of 3D typography. How simple words can evoke our sense of sight and how that extra dimension make us look deeper into it (and maybe think a little deeper too). Let's clear our mind today and look at something beautiful and creatively constructed. Check out and appreciate the amazing architecture of 3D typography and we hope some of them will inspire you to build one too.

Some images are rightfully credited to the original creator. However, due to my

Just gonna post a short and simple tutorial on how to get the fisheye effect in Photoshop. This has to be the cheapest way to get this effect on your photo (if you already owned Photoshop). Rather than buying that expensive fisheye lense or buy one of those compact cameras that has the function to automatically apply this effect on your photo. Since they're making lenses just for the purpose of

Let's try something new today (if you haven't tried this before). I'm going to call this photo effect, dotted pixelated pattern on your image.
