Show off your Photoshop Skills (Don't post Forum Signatures)
I have noticed a lot of pretty talented people on here with photoshop, so I wanted to put in my two cents, see what you guys thought. I have taught myself photoshop, and consider myself an apprentice at best. I haven't done anything in the way of guildwars, but, I do tinker around in general. But I decided to give a Screenie from GWs a go, and wanted it to be dark, off color, and have a message in it. So I give you guys a before and after of my ele, Govannon Syphideous outside Elona Reach.

Before the editting its a pretty cool screenie, but I think the after edit is far better, hope you guys like it.

Yeh, it does doesn't it. Didn't think of that. Oh well. But either way, I used Tenai's Wind to create the ingame effect. The rest was all effects.

As an update, I have been working for about 1.5 hrs now with extracting many many layers from various screenies with my necro. Here is my progress so far. I guess this will be a good way to show how to make it without so many words. Enjoy what I have thus far.

The first thing I thought of when I saw the above picture was that it looks like she's being thrown out of some kind of portal.

as well as bevel and emboss

heres what i did when i was bored on lunch break... i didn't have much time so nothing fancy here... just some gamma adjusting and some text ^_^. I was looking more in to the photography rather than the photoshoping... i think i took a very artistic pic .

you are right the quality is best preserved and it is 2nd generation to the GIF format but not ALL browsers support it. Compatablity is the problem. I prefer png myself though sometimes it is very hard to notice the quality difference unless you're a perfectionist.
