Your tuned to Radio xDarKSideX and we will be teaching everyone out there how to make their own grunge signature complete! Lets get started shall we? 1.) First we'll start out with creating a new document, Follow these settings : 2.) Now open a render/picture that you want to add into the signature, i will be using this one. Click here for render : Render 3.) Next, if you render isnt cutout yet and your using mine, select your magic wand tool and select all the area on the green, then right click and go to " Select Inverse ", then " CTRL + C ". 4.) After you have it copied, go back to your original document ( 350x120 ). Select it and then hit " CTRL + V " to paste it onto the signature, now place it ina good place that you want it yo be in. This is what i have so far. 5.) Now like we did on the other tutorial i made before, select around the render, but not exact around it, do a ruff circle kinda thing like this. 6.) Now right click inside the shape and click " Select Inverse " 6.) Once you have it selected like that or similar, right click inside it and go to " Feather " , set the pxls to 10 pxls. 7.) Click ok, now check on your toolbar with all your tools, that the color of the clouds you want is that color, http://www.wolfness.com/upload/tutorialgrunge2.gif When you look at the 2 colors near the bottom of that, click on the one thats higher up, and go to the color you want. 8.) Now so far you should have something similar to this if you using my render. 9.) Make a new layer, ( bottom of where all layers are, it looks likes a little piece of paper folding up a little. 10.) Next, grab your brush tool which is located on your toolbar. 11.) Now pick some good grunge brushes and start clicking around making it look like something you think grunge looks like. Mke sure your brushing on the new layer. If you dont have any brushes i suggest you use our Graphics Vault and look, or http://www.deviantart.com . 12.) Once you have brushed a little on the new layer, go to Filter>Blue > Guassion Blur. Set the blue to 1.0 . 13.) Now you should have something similar to this. 14.) Now, go to your main layer ( Called Background ). And select the whole thing with the rectangle marquee. Then right click and go to Stroke, make sure you check off CENTER and make it black. 1 Pixel also. Everything else should stay the same. 15.) While its still selected, right click again and go to stroke, this time make sure you checked off the INSIDE box. Then this time make it a color that related to your signature, mines blueish kinda, so i made it a dark blue. 16.) Now for the last part of the border, zoom in a lot and get to where its all pixels, now use the rectangle Marquee and select inside of the 2nd border layer like this. 16.) Then click on stroke like the picture and mkae the stroke 1 pxl again and this time check off the box " CENTER ". 17. ) Now you should have a 3 pixel border like this. 18.) Now add a text and anything else and your done!!! Here's my final outcome of the tutorial. Congratulations!!! Your grunge signature is now completed! Good luck next time, and thanks for sticking with Radio xDarKSideX . Enjoy the tutorial, - xDarKSideX
This is an old topic i made a long time ago. Please dont bring these back up. Makes me look worse then i am right now. BTW, i got better tutorials and a better way to use grunge and blend.
Dude, you need a new host I would advertise in a sense, but it would just been grounds to get myself suspended or... banned, and I don't want that. Your bandwidth is just low is all I am saying.
