First Gimp Attempt

[the codes]

Well...finally sat down and watched a few tutorials, followed one and made the background that is on my desktop. hopefully I can get some more practice in and get better at working with this program.



used geektool to put the other desktop add ons. :********:

nothing special, just something quick

I think that is one of the first tutorials that I did as well

thanks Luke.

it took some trial and error but hope to keep practicing. it was kinda fun...I might have to stop modding for
a little bit so I can make my new comp and get a nice 24 inch screen instead of
my 13 inch Mac lol

Thats awesome dude. What are all the programs your using?
Save up and pick up Art Text and CS6 extended.

thanks man, your stuff has kinda inspired me lol I need to do alot more trial and error and following tutorials but I think I can def see myself getting into this type of stuff. Def want to get my new computer set up now. and once I do that I will prob add those programs to my list.

the desktop software is geektool, its on the appstore for mac. you can do alot of **** with it, you have to either look the code up or write it yourself tho and I havnt dived that dip into it yet.

the calendar line on the top is called dateline, I dont think its on the appstore, or wasnt when I got it.

thanks man, it was pretty fun after I got over the frustration of listening to a 10 year old on youtube make it look so damn easy haha

In photoshop we can create a new layer and just slap it on top to get rid of that.

I have CS5 extended on my desktop and laptop. With this program you can only have two installed so since I don't use CS5 on my laptop I'm willing to un-install it and send you both disc's if you want. You only be able to install it on one computer. You interested?

If you want me to hook you up with some photoshop pm me what you need.

Aint that the truth. Some of the video's are terrible and don't offer HD or explain what the heck they are doing.

I have used photoshop tutorials too, just have to figure out the right tool in gimp

 

[Bigtman07]

Yea many of the gimp tools are a bit different. I have both on my computer. I will say gimp does borders Waaaayyyyyy Better than CS5
