We need a weather system in PR...


And a day/night cycle...

Lotsa pictures warning.

Been playing around with GIMP in my free time, because I only have wired internet here in China, and Facebook, Twitter, and YouTube is blocked.

If anyone knows how to hook up a ZTE dial up PPPoe modem PAP security to a Tenda router, please let me know.
Let me know what you think.

If someone could make a really cool one of these in 1920x1080 it would be greatly appreciated... ;D

Just resized and sharpened it. Let me know if it's okay, since I don't have a 1920x1080 screen.

Credit goes to Frosty, obviously.

What kind of techniques or methods do you guys use to edit?
I'd really like to see a tutorial of some of these edited pics


-edit-

Here's one with a tutorial about lightrays, although this result doesnt really come close as the example

Yeah maybe some photoshop pro here could give us some pointers...

One of the entrences to the mosque in karbala. Always seem to smash into other speeding cars right there.

Very nice, but IMHO the soldier should be in colour as well, great effect though.

Couple from me, never done this before because I only just got the coop version of prbot









Critique welcome, like I said this is my first time so I would greatly appreciate knowing how I could do better.

I have a question about some picture editing. How do you get part of the image to come off a rectangle base. Like how some people have in their signatures?

Do you mean having a big screenshot and then getting out the part you want? Use the crop tool in Photoshop, you basically draw a big rectangle/square over the picture and press crop, and it will delete everything outside the square.

I don't mind the top one, you could take the screenshot to show a little more scenery of Lashkar rather than just leaves, and if you're going for scanlines try this guide here:


And for the one with all the Brits stabbing the Taliban guy (and your current sig for that matter) try some different, more appropriate fronts from dafont.

i believe he means popout sigs
like this?


photoshop is preferred since it it easier to do with multiple layers.
1. get photo
2. select rectangular portion for base and copy as new layer
3. go back to original picture and select object you want "popping out" and copy/paste as new layer
4. make sure the popout portion is overtop of the bottom portion
5. stroke (make a border) around rectangular portion
6. add shadows as needed (drop shadow)
7. SAVE AS A .PNG WITH ALPHA CHANNELS!!!
8. ?????
9. Profit

Nice and simple, I like it.

You should try one in PR with Huey's or Chinooks or something.
