Extra Tips and Advice

• Find a good forum/tutorial site, I personally use http://www.helpwithphotoshop.co.uk/forum
• Make sure you have a good site for extra resources
• For fonts I use http://www.dafont.com - Alot of royalty free fonts for personal use.
• For custom brushes and textures I search around www.deviantart.com - Ths is a great site that I am now a part of, perfect for alot of resources.
• YOUTUBE! This is where I started off, find good photoshop tutorials and if the person has more than one, subscribe to them if you have an account
• I play around alot, I used to sit for over an hour just playing with layer styles on text to find the desired results.
• Try starting with something simple and then move on, eg start by playing with bevel and emboss. Then I layed wit the shadow and eventually you find styles you like.

Thats really the only stuff I can think off the top of my head, PM me if you need any more help, Ill gladly help.

one more question where do you get your brushes? I need some more I only got R0manic

I think I can help with this one. I dunno where he gets his exact brushes, but I get many of mine from sites like: http://www.brusheezy.com/

If you want a couple more sites, I could probably find some, but I'll have to do some digging through my history.

I will do one just for you and when you say rotate you mean what exactly?

 

[midget31394]

oh and I use deviantart.com for brushes. Just search for them.

I believe he means he wants it to fade out of one, into another, then fade to the other one, over and over.
