Preserved Topic: Gullwing Text (Page 1 of 1)

Hey Doc!<P>I like this forum better, and hope that you can create a tutorial for the creation of your text on your gullwing interface. I've come fairly close but there's some steps that I'm obviously missing because I haven't thought of it, or improper implementation etc. Your text is the best on the net IMHO and you should share some of the wealth eh?<P>Thanks Man

Which text do you mean, the dreamy blue text at the bottom? It's a simple fake 3d effect, with an image from the hubble telescope wrapped over it. I'll have to look over it and see what I can do about explaining it.

I think he meant the Logo text on top, with two colors and some flares in it.
btw, a lil tutorial concerning the planet on "spheredex" would be cool ) pleasepleaseplease... i can give you...eh..my moms recipe for lemon and vanilla curry. or sheep testicles. or oregano flavored bananas... never mind.
<P>------------------

Make that "lemon vanilla curried sheep testicles" and how could anyone refuse??<P>------------------

Sounds yummy guys! The text I was referring to (hey aren't you pround of me...I didn't say "actually"...D'oh!) is the top text...which is so cool it's even yummier looking than the sheep testicles! Thanks Doc.

Hey, papa, how's this? If this looks like what you want to do, let me know and i'll give you my version:<P><img src="http://kublai_khan.tripod.com/dl-44.jpg"><P>------------------

Yo Man...now that's coooooooooooolllll!! <IMG SRC="http://www.ozones.com/forum/biggrin.gif"><P>------------------

Whoa-ho! That's cool! Took me a minute to think, did I do a tute on that? No! I remember when I was first starting out, I was too stubborn to ask how other folks did stuff, so I'd spend hours and hours every night trying to "reverse engineer" certain effects. The a number one coolest thing was that I could duplicate effects, and my methods were *completely* different!Photoshop is fun that way, there is always at least 3 different ways to do anything, and some of the coolest effects started out as mistakes halfway along, heh. Nice work, DL-44!!!<P>Your pal, -doc-

Well thanks Doc, means a lot coming from you. It's classic Doc Ozone really...grey background, orange base color, sky blue, lighting effects and lens flares!! The basic idea was easy enough, although I did spend *quite* a bit of time tweaking things afterward. Everything you need to know to make this can be found in the Hands On tutorials, so it's really a tribute to your unique approach to both you art and your teaching. Thanks Doc : )<P>------------------

Okay, give me a day or so and I'll write a full fledged how-to, so long as that's cool with you Doc.<P>------------------

Yah sure, not a problem. There are no secrets here, only techniques. Better than 50/50 your method and mine are not the same, but the results look that way. Cool, huh?<P>Your pal, -doc-

I hope BOTH the good Doctor AND DL-44 post a tutorial on the gullwing text, etc. It would be cool to see the different approaches used by each to obtain the same result!<P>What say you?<P>
