MrLlamaLlama Posted March 20, 2009 Author Share Posted March 20, 2009 Right, I'll pin this then, since it seems like it's popular. (If I remember how :/) Evo, I'll take a look at those links and put them up - I also just added a section on Abduzeedo's daily inspiration blog. See first post.

chris82 Posted March 21, 2009 Share Posted March 21, 2009 All CS4 users should download the latest patch, it makes it ridiculously faster. I'd say with this patch, it is really worth upgrading if you have CS3. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mvi Posted March 21, 2009 Share Posted March 21, 2009 What about CS2? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chris82 Posted March 21, 2009 Share Posted March 21, 2009 ? CS2 is old, obviously CS3 and CS4 are better than it. CS4 is the best version of Photoshop ever made. Similar to how Windows 7 is the best version of Windows ever made. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mvi Posted March 21, 2009 Share Posted March 21, 2009 But will CS4 run faster? My laptop handles CS2 just about, and I don't know of any features in CS3 or 4 that I need, but if it'll run smoother I'll upgrade. Also, Vista is in no way superior to XP.

Mpilk901 Posted March 21, 2009 Share Posted March 21, 2009 That looks sweet Huck, wish I could do things like that. Also thanks for pinning this topic! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrLlamaLlama Posted March 21, 2009 Author Share Posted March 21, 2009 Cheers for the info Chris. The patch auto downloaded last night for me, but I haven't tried it out since. My load time is about 12 seconds first time booting, then like 4 seconds any time after that anyway. CS2 is good, runs pretty fast, since it's been patched right up by Adobe. CS3 Runs about the same speed, but has new features also. It's newer software, and i think it's still loosely supported. CS4 Will absolutely blaze on a good / medium system, because it's all optimized for the latest tech and stuff. It's hard on weak systems, though. Also, CS4 has OpenGL, which is so good, it makes like worth living. BTW, Awesome Huck Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Huckleberry Pie Posted March 21, 2009 Share Posted March 21, 2009 (edited) That looks sweet Huck, wish I could do things like that. Also thanks for pinning this topic! Actually, it is quite easier than it seems; I D/L'd a iPhone mod from GTAInside, installed it in SA, and used the GGMM viewer to pan the model. Then I took a screenshot of it, pasted it to the photo, and then distorted it a bit to fit Shirley's palm. I blurred the fingers a bit, adjusted the contrast, added some logos on it - voila! An anachronistic iPhone advert! Cheers for the info Chris. The patch auto downloaded last night for me, but I haven't tried it out since.

I shooped Shirl for the lulz... EDIT: This just in - I added a sepia effect and adjusted the phone to blend in better with the rest of the image: LOL IMAGE HAX!!!

Hansui Posted March 22, 2009 Share Posted March 22, 2009 can you guys help me, I'm trying to find a PS 7 tutorial on making a picture similar to the artwork on SA. I've been searching it in google and I can't find it... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrLlamaLlama Posted March 22, 2009 Author Share Posted March 22, 2009 There's couple of sites with pre - CS tutorials listed on the front page, ander the other huge list of links. My only other advice is to play around with filter combinations. I had a quick google, and found this. You might have to miss out some steps that detract from the effect you want, since it's not specifically for an SA art effect. It should be backwards compatible, even though they advise you have CS. If you run into any issues, post them here and i'll try to figure out a workaround for you Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CS4 uses your graphics card to accelerate rendering just like a video game. Also Windows 7 ≠ Windows Vista. Compared to 7, Vista is absolutely horrible.

MrLlamaLlama Posted March 27, 2009 Author Share Posted March 27, 2009 No problem Noodle. Just a quick t post to let you all know I've updated the first post, the Nav is now a bit clearer and cleaner, and it's much easier to find what you're after. Also, keep posting links / site you like to use, they're always handy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris Posted March 29, 2009 Share Posted March 29, 2009 Just thought I'd drop in here to say at some point this week I'll finally get around to posting video links in the second post of this topic for the "You Suck At Photoshop" series. Also, for those of you who use CS4 and want to learn how to properly use the Content Aware Scaling tool, I learned how to use it properly and effectively a while ago. If anyone wants then I can write up a quick tutorial, though there are some videos I could point you to as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Huckleberry Pie Posted April 8, 2009 Share Posted April 8, 2009 OK, I need help on this; I'll give over 9000 internets for those who will help me on turning the coupe on Strawberry into a GTA San Andreas-style lowrider: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alvas. Posted April 8, 2009 Share Posted April 8, 2009 LOL what did you mean by 9000 internets ? I have a idea try making the car, oh I mean stretch it downwards a little and a bit more towards the right....fix any small errors if they come there and then darken the car i mean make it like dark red.....remove that strawberries on the car and the three balls on top of the lights....try it out and show me the result....

About the over 9000 internets, it's a 4chan in-joke of sorts, taken from Dragonball Z, as well as Dubya's interpretation of the web. And as for the car, what if I take a car from SA, pan it to match the pic, and then do some touch-up work? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alvas. Posted April 8, 2009 Share Posted April 8, 2009 Yeah lol thats a better idea just take a car change the color and then do some touch up work like adding the flowers on tyres,and stuff you know............ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TOXIC Posted April 9, 2009 Share Posted April 9, 2009 Lmao.... something like this? Well the main problem here is the quality of the car stock, I didn't get any good ones....so I decided to reduce the beauty of Sb Sc poster as well. If anyone could get me a high quality stock I may try upon it one more time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alvas. Posted April 9, 2009 Share Posted April 9, 2009 (edited) LOL serously why did you use those filters just using that real car without blurring/filtering it and then changing the color would have done a great job.... nice job anyways...

I'll do my own attempt at this in a few days; as for your shoop, it is quite nice, although it needs some touching up and stuff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Huckleberry Pie Posted April 12, 2009 Share Posted April 12, 2009 lolz, another spoof advert by yours truly, promoting the Dilettante in the style of, well, you know who she is... Well, I guess it still needs some touching up and stuff, and oh, and try reading the fine print at the bottom... God Bless and Happy Easter, everyone...
