For your first coloured pic its pretty good. I have learned Photoshop for my job so I know how difficult it can be when you first use it. If you practise a bit you get better and better^^v
If you have questions you can ask me if you want. :)

ahh wow! For a beginner this is good 0__0 Seriously..
I remember my first one :// -no no I am not gonna talk about it XDD-
I, myslef, still trying to learn coloring and Im still not very good >.>'
but really this is not bad at all! keep practising! ^^

WOW, youve got way potential if that's your first ps. The next step for you would be light management across the colored sockets. It would add a depth in realism for the anime. Gradients work wonders for this with a little practice. Then you could follow up with some brush makage. Making your own brushes is way easy with a camera. You could make one from just about anything. Then I would go with using some of your already made ps and try to merge and edit them together to make fluent and corrolating art. Practice is everything. Try to press every button in ps atleast once to see what it does. Eventually you just remeber the effects and certain tricks that do neat little somethings. Look at other ps pix helps too, your able to see exactly what they did to the picture to get it to what it looks like,

Yeah, i cud work on pics in my computer class but my teacher is kinda picky about using the internet...so i got a 30 day demo @ home....

-mini-*COUGH,* you didn't hear this from me* COUGH*
but you can get it-nova- from other places* COUGH* COUGH * COUGHHHH*-.org-

I have that program but I've just stareted using it....:vsign:

Wow I remember my first photoshop, I think I still have it somewhere...

Oh yeah :

That's it ;_;

Yours is really good, I have a few years Photoshop experiance now so I'm pretty good on it ^-^ For your first go it's amazing!

it seems that you have a problem cleaning the lineart i could still see white shade.
an easy way to eliminate that is to set the background to transparent, then on the layer lock transparency then trace your picture with a brush. or you can allso retrace your work with pentool
hope those

Wow big boobs in that picture of yours o.o

.:: Points to sig::.

Did this abotu 5 minuets ago, and I did my current myspace page ^_^

Thanks everyone 4 ur tips & ur kindness!!!! Yeah, i dont know my way around photoshop so well, so yeah, the white lines, i cudnt get rid of...T.T

Lmao, yeah >.< Ah the greatness of my old school drawings ^-^;;

Pretty good, but i would suggest you stay away from photoshop if your creating line art. Thats what adobe illustrator is for.

Oh okay i see...Thank you!^.^

Well.That is awsome.
For me I use PhotoShop to color in my drawings.:D
I scan my hand drawings and Paint it it.

Here's an example.:D Me Show-off.

I use to do the same thing until i learned of illustrators existence. You have more control and crisper edges, also once made they can be infinitely resized without pixelation since its a vector graphic.

Heres and example, this will only be up temporarily since I dont wanna hijack chibiloli's thread.

OMG!I should start using Illustrator.
Wait is Anime Studio or Adobe Illustrator?
Which is better?

how much does photoshop cost

I don't know.Maybe over $50.

HOLY!Is it that much?
Since I'm using pirated ones:D I don't even know the price.

can someone with photo shop help me

I've been trying to download adobe illustrator but it didn't work. Maybe because I have a mac??

That should be no problem! It works for mac as well as for windows ^^
Perhaps your RAM is too slow? I believe you need a 1GB RAM for the new Adobe CS2 and CS3. Mine was to low so it didnt work, too T.T

Mine worked fine when I had 256mb of RAM. Just couldn't have anything else but that and MSN. I don't really like CS2/3 it takes up pointless amounts of space for basically the same thing as 7. So I use 7 and I've now got 1GB RAM.

sorry folks, totally forgot to check up on what was going on here.

An adobe application by itself is usually $500+. They cost this much due to the fact that they are industry standard products. No commercially printed material you see today hasnt passed through one of the adobe programs such as photoshop, illustrator, indesign, or acrobat. I use these programs everyday for work.

If you have alternate programs such as anime studio, which yunantidus asked, go with the adobe application since it is more widely used.

All adobe applications are made for both mac and pc, but i suggest you have a lot of hard drive space and ram to run these programs. Some of the files i create usually hit 100+ MBs. I just bought a new computer today and I'm hoping to design up a storm with minimal friction (^_^)v

You know, you can download Adobe Elements for free, I think, if you wanna be legit about it. It's similar to Photoshop but with a more n00b friendly interface and less options.

I think it's free, anyway.

Adobe photoshop elements isnt free its about $100-250, though im not a big fan of it. I use to use it when I was very new to photoshop. In today's print and design industry the top progams used are

Adobe: Photoshop, Illustrator, Indesign, Acrobat, Flash, & Dreamweaver.
Quark Express as well...which i hope will die off soon. Learn to use normal photoshop, theres nothing in elements that you cannot do in photoshop.

Yeah, I originally started on proper Photoshop, so using Elements at school was like :O my options aren't there! I must have thought it was free because you can get it free at my school, must have got confused there. I've had around 3-4 years experiance in Photoshop now, and Elements just confuses things for me. I hate Acrobat Reader it annoys the hell out of me for some reason! I use Dreamweaver sometimes, I'm not so good and Flash. I used Quark Express on my work experiance at a graphic design place, and it's a really weird program.

Not that I'm going to advise it or condone it or advertise it or whatever, but you can download them for free off the internet, like most things.

I dont mind bashing on Quark, just my personal experience it is a horrible program to work with compared to InDesign. I learn flash on my own time but I may take a course on it since I suck at programming, took programming in high school, would be a bigger fan if i were better at it.

I like photoshop, its a very powerful program as are the majority of adobe apps. I was lucky enough to have a great instructor, 1 of 4 adobe certified in canada.

Wow it's really good that you got instructed, I had no-one at all to teach me here, and to be honest even the teachers at my school acknowlegde I know more than them when it comes to Photoshop! I've been trying to teach myself some 3D Design stuff, but it's much harder, so I really kinda need an instructer ^-^;;

Haha yeah, formal training is a must when i comes to these programs.
I love 3D design but never got a lot of hands on for it. I tried Maya studio twice it was a brainracker. Keep going with it, experience = power XD.

Was nice chattin' with you. I gotta step out to assist someone with a website.

Yeah, 3D design interfaces are always so intimidating aswell, I took one look at Blender and 3D Max and was just like :eek:

Nice chatting with you too, see you ^-^

I barely a freshman in high skool(is that bad?) but only juniors can take the photography class @ skool, but i do try & practice on photoshop during my Computer class...since my mom doesnt let me @ home much, she thinks its a waste of my time(i wanna study animation)
