Night Vision Sig

Ok Im working on a signature that has a Night Vision effect and I want to have it look like the googles are locking on to the target by having some black lines moving around and the locking on. Is there any way I can do this. I have Photoshop 7 and Image Ready but Im not sure how to make the lines not all jumpy and such. I want the lines to start in the middle and then end up on the guy on the lefts head as though its locking on

Included is the JPG of what Im working on

 

Hmm, I will look into this,

BTW: "This forum is for discussion that is not appropriate for other folders in this forum. You will be warned if you advertise/request sigs/etc in here."

 

Hey man that looks good, and i think your on the right track . keep it up man i look forard to seeing the final project.

 

I looked at the other forum descriptions and none seemed to fit plus Im not requesting a sig or advertsing I just need some help

For reference something like from picture one scrolling to picture two

Picture One


it then scrolls around and acts like it looks on as shown in picture 2

Picture Two

 

just edit it now in image ready

 

looks good, but i think you need a 1px border

 

The idea is it doesnt just go right there and locks on as I said in my first post please read before replying

I want it to act like its searching by having the lines scroll to find the target

 

it will look nice when it is done

 

I used a variation of this tutorial http://s7.invisionfree.com/Art_of_Creation...hp?showtopic=47

to come up with these (anims a little jerky - I only spent 10 mins on each)


I created a new layer and used the SINGLE ROW MARQUEE TOOL plus a 1 pixel stroke to create the Horizontal part of the crosshair. Then similarly created another layer and used the SINGLE COLUMN MARQUEE TOOL plus stroke to create the vertical part.

Jumped over to IMAGEREADY and simply moved the Vertical and Horizontal layers ,making sure I held the shift key down. Then TWEENED between the old and new positions and repeated until done.


I'm sure you can do what you want to do in a similar way.

Apologies for posting a link off GR, just trying to help someone out

 

Thats awesome thanks for the help im going to try that right now

 

I look forward to seeing the final result.

 

Pernik how to you edit the text without editing all the frames text

I tried to edit the last frame but it chaged them all some I made 3 seperate images with Searching, Target Aquired, and lock on but Im not sure how to import them into one project on image ready

 

Finished Product
