Tutorial of the month…He use brushes only…
And he also includes those brushes for others to download…
Master files play an important role in tutorials as they allow others to see inside the file and manipulate those images in their own unique ways, especially people new to graphic design and (or) photoshop…
We include a huge range of tutorials, from the really simple, such as using brushes (which for some people who have never used them can be a frightening task), right through to advanced AJAX and XML tutorials from IBM…
It just so happened that the cool island effect is something we really like, and as of yet, no one has done a better job at teaching it…
Can you…?
Hmm…will give it a try.. let’s see…
Can’t wait to see the results…
Good luck - and may the force be with you!
Thank you very much for the link. I’m glad you found my geeky tutorial somewhat useful! hehe
Sorry Josh, but without a link to your website, we cannot be 100% sure which of the tutorials was yours…?
Since you mentioned the work geeky, we can only assume it is one of the five from the opening paragraph of this post…
Either way, thanks for dropping by, and more importantly, thanks for offering-up such useful tutorials…
