    Design question

    Hi guys,
    For a while ive been practising designing galleries and stuff, and i AM getting better step by step. One thing that keeps amazing me when i look at the designs of the big guys, is that they always do cool stuff with the letters, and for instance make cum drop of the pics and stuff.
    My questions is pretty simple: how do they do that? Im using photoshop and imageready. Are there specific programs you use which make it easier, or maybe do you use a drawingtablet?
    Another question, you guys always come up with great backgrounds and other images. Where do you het those kind of stuff? I mean, is there some company where you can browse and license these images?

    Im really working hard to improve my skills and invest a lot of time in it. Some info would be greatly appreciated!
    Even I can make bling-bling with these people. Great support and converting sites. Check 'm out!

      Great, thanks, that;s a start. I bought some books about PS, but it seems they dont cover much of that kind of editing. If anyone knows of more good tutorials plz let me know

        Almost all Photoshop books don't cover "advanced/intermediate" Photoshop tutorials like the one you mentioned.

        You probably won't find a tutorial of text with semen dripping off it-- Since many designers like to keep things like that secret.

        Anyways, I'd recommend checking out: tutorialfind.com for a plethora of tutorials for Photoshop.

          there are lots of ways to make special effects in Photoshop easily:

          Actions
          Layer Styles
          PlugIn filters

          Do a search for Free actions etc and you'll find there's Photoshop folks who have already figured out how to make various effects and post them for anyone to download free. Most will give instructions on how to install em.

          try PhotoshopPlanet to get a list of links for these...good luck.
