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.

thats very cool. good work.

Very snazzy

I agree. That's very nice work!

Since I don't have Photoshop I've become very skilled using mspaint

Thx Guys, I will post more of my work in this thread. I may start a service where I will do one for one person each week also. I am going to do one for my necro tonight. I will post it here.

That effect kinda reminds me of glyph of elemental power, it's got that same lightning thing going on for that

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.

looks great i'd love to see that animation ingame

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.

kickass

Here is my progress. Still FAR FROM DONE. But it is getting better!

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.

First pic : great.

Second pic in progress : amazing =D

1st pic i think you could have done more to the text than just added to outer glow effect.
as well as bevel and emboss
:-/

<---- looking forward to see more

^ Agreed, its looking totally awesome! Necro is beautiful allrdy, and its not even finished 0.o

Save your pics under the .png format! PLEASE!
its the best quality
and saves transparency
unless u got animation got for the .gif format.

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 .
