Colors - Preferable Darker]]> Sun, 02 Jul 2006 16:42:08 -0700 22553 http://gfx.vault9.net/forums/index.php?showtopic=22670 Simple Layers Tutorial
This is intended to give a quick overview to a brand new Photoshop user on the most basic purpose of layers.

Layers in Photoshop are used to seperate various pieces of your work from each other, and allow you to control them independantly. For example, if you write two messages each will (by default) be on its own layer. You are then able to move them independantly of each other, as well as decide their order on your sheet.

This is the principle I will be demostrating through the use of a few screenshots.

Step 1 - Create a new document
http://gfx.vault9.net/forums/index.php?act=Attach&type=post&id=8708
This should be relatively simple for you, go to File and select New - enter 500x500px as your image dimensions as you can see in my example.

Step 2 - Write a line
http://gfx.vault9.net/forums/index.php?act=Attach&type=post&id=8709
I have chosen to say hello to the world, but you can write anything you want. To do this select the "T" on the tool bar and click in the middle of the document, then you can start typing!

Step 3 - See your layers
http://gfx.vault9.net/forums/index.php?act=Attach&type=post&id=8710
In your Layers tab you will now see a new layer (a type layer, illustrated by the T), with the name of whatever you have written. You will also see "Background" - this is the default "bottom" layer - e.g. the white.

Step 4 - More text
http://gfx.vault9.net/forums/index.php?act=Attach&type=post&id=8711
Now write a second message, in a clearly different colour as you can see I have done.

Step 5 - See all your layers
http://gfx.vault9.net/forums/index.php?act=Attach&type=post&id=8712
As you can see, you now have 2 extra layers created - one for each of your text messages. If you select the pointer now you can move your second message around, without moving the first. This is the primary function of layers in my opinion.

Step 6 - Clarity
http://gfx.vault9.net/forums/index.php?act=Attach&type=post&id=8713
For the purpose of clarity I have enlarged my first word. To do this reselect the "T" type tool, click on your message and at the top (in the font bar), you can select a larger size. This is not neccessary though.

Step 7 - See it for yourself!
http://gfx.vault9.net/forums/index.php?act=Attach&type=post&id=8714
As I explained in step 5, you are able to move layers. As you can see I have moved my layers so they are "on top" of each other. The Goodbye World is on top, as it is the highest on your Layers tab.

Step 8 - The whole point
http://gfx.vault9.net/forums/index.php?act=Attach&type=post&id=8715
As you can see in the image, I have now dragged my Hello World layer above my Goodbye World layer. To do this click and hold down on the layer in the "Layers" tab, and drag it up or down. Once you have changed the order of your layer you will see the second text comes forward, as illustrated below.

thank you in advance]]> Fri, 18 Aug 2006 16:00:28 -0700 22607 http://gfx.vault9.net/forums/index.php?showtopic=22622 http://gbox.forumwise.com/forum.html?mforum=gbox

My second reqeust is a follows. We also need a new forum icon/banner. This was are previous banner and the new one that i am reqeusting needs to be the same size (width of 500 height of 100), so it fits on the psp screen.
All this needs to say is Gbox, maybe some form of a box, and possible a collaboration of gaming consoles....and the color scheme for it is what ever looks good on the forums aswell.

I hope that this is not tomuch to ask for, i would realy realy appretate it, and if you were wondering how we got the original icon/banner, userbars in the first place....we had a member that did graphical design but he left and now we are stuck with them.....you help will be very very appreatated
