Category: FPSB > ArtAuthor(s): dot-

So you wanna make a sweet signature? Well you have come to the right place.


We are ganna learn how to make this:


Free Image Hosting at www.ImageShack.us

Not bad huh?



Ok well lets get started.


First off for the brushes you can go to www.deviantart.com for the brushes because that is where i got mine :)

For the gradients you are just going to have to Google and download some or make it if you like because i cant remember where i got mine. Sorry.


Ok here we go:


First, of course open PS, i am using CS3 just a FYI


Start a new page and make it 800X400 or whatever you like











Now add black and white clouds Filter/Render/Clouds











Take out that favorite grunge brush and start a brushin in black and white










Ok now take your render and slap it near where it will be and start to smudge with whatever you like, i used a chalk and butterfly brush.










Now put your render where you want it and smudge a little on the sides








Now add some explosion brushes that can be found at deviant art by searching "photoshop explosion brush" i also used some glitter brushes for the sparkle things.









Now its gradient map time Yippee!!!


so follow the following gradients from the next screen shots






























Whew thats over, so lets finish it up shall we.


First make a new layer and then apply the image.


Then add a little more explosion brushes and just touch it up a bit.









Now the final step! add some text and a border.








For my text i made it white and put it on overly.



I hope you enjoyed this tutorial and you got to make something cool!


remember, practice practice practice.

Detail: Despite the low level of originality, the tutorial is detailed well. The author explains everything he did well and provides screenshots.
Usefulness: The tutorial describes how to make a background and blend your render into the background, among a few other things. For the most part the tutorial covers basic tbar creation but doesn't expand its' depth any more than that. All of the techniques described are very unoriginal. It also requires the use of brushes, and heavily depends on their use.
Readability: The readability ties into the level of detail. The tutorial did not have any sort of layout, however, so I deducted points. There is no step number, divider between steps, or easily viewable way to discern a change has been made to the tbar.

I have a quick question to ask... You know that little tab on the right? (the one that shows what you have done so far). I somehow closed it and I don't know how to open it again.
Can you help me?
