I stole the transparent outline from Chris123NT. The drive is an icon converted to a PNG. The background is a Black - Blue - Black gradient. The glossy effect is from a tutorial

Aug 30 2005, 18:04
yes.
it's a basic application of tools.
no talent required, just imagination.
judging from your posts, i'd say you're young enough to have a very vivid imagination

Ahanix how do you get the glass effect type of thing on photoshop?
ChonChon your sig looks good well done
I learnt this from oldecrow.
to summarise:
make a selection around the top part of your item you want to add gloss effect to.
then cut the selection so it looks like a crescent thinggi *screenshot*
and then do a white - black gradient *screenshot* on a new layer.
Then 'screen' the layer and whalla.

Oh and IE sucks, It cant render PNG tranparency properly and my sig looks UGLY!

You use IE? You should seriously consider switching to a more safe, fast and updated browser!

It definatly looks better than your first one! I think the background gradient could be improved dramatically! But the rest looks very good! I see your applying layer styles well now.
