Tutorial:

Not sure if this will work...

1. Crop. Sharpen. etc.

2. Set to black and white, however you want to. I did the hue/saturation trick.

3. Duplicate layer. Set to softlight. 100%

4. Ctrl+ A on your keyboard, so there is a dotted moving line around your picture. Go to edit>stroke. Pick a colour, anmd about 5-10 pixels. (Pick a darker colour, I think it works better)

6. With your rectangular marquee tool, make a dotted line square in the middle-ish of your picture.

7. Edit>Stroke. Pick another colour and a certain number of pixels. Ok.

8. Now just fix up all those tiny problems there are, and add text, brushes, etc.

I did a Kelli avatar like this awhile ago, but my Belle on didn't work out as well...I'd love to see results!

1st thingy :P

This is just a very simple tutorial.

Just adds a nice effect to an avatar.

I use Photoshop CS

1. File > Open

I'm using this image IMG_100207044403.png

2. You may want to crop/resize your image to do this

Crop: Use the round boxie and draw around the part

you want to crop.

Then go Image > Crop and it sohuld be what you selected.

Resize: Go to Image > Imaze size. A box should appear

like this - IMG_100207050617.pngChange the width to 100px and the height to 100 px

3. Layer > New > Layer > Okay

4. Use this tool IMG_100207050726.pngto add some text.

I added 'Drew' in #44A4FD, size 18

5. Then I did Ctrl + T and rotated the text.

6. Now my image looks like this IMG_100207051039.png

7. I then went back to my original layer and selcted the paintbrush tool.

IMG_100207051145.png

8. I then choose a colour that was darker then my original text.

For this reason, I choose #7459FF

9. I then zoomed in on my image till 332.01%.

10. I picked a small size brush and carefully went around the text with the brush

11. Your image should now look like this..well mine does anyway. IMG_100207051314.png

See! I told you this was simple...but I would love to see your results.

ETA : And I forgot to say after Step 10, I zoomed out to 100%
