This doesn't exactly follow the tutorial, but it has some ideas from it, as well as my own experiences with airbrushing thrown in :mrgreen:

I think it only works with pictures which are not as professional...

I tried it with my own professional picture and it doesn't look nice.

You're picture is nice. I'll try it another time with another picture.

Btw: Here is the picture I used but didn't look like anyting. (And sorry it's quite big... :P)

Nice job DarkyMidnight, and welcome to the forum. Just so you know, the maximum size of images that you should post here is 800pixels on the longest edge.

I've edited your post accordingly :)

Nicely assembled tutorial! I normally save all my work in bitmaps and those can take up to 2-3mb's each, PNG's are often only a few hundred KB's and load much faster in my case. It took Mozilla about 4 seconds to load all 75 elements but Opera did it in under 2.5 seconds. :D

@RFX: Belated welcome to the forum! :grin:

When I reply to a first time poster I like to appear friendly. Then when the new member accidentally breaks the rules I become the Rule Ogre and pounce on them and roar and generally frighten all their puppies.

:lol:

Sorry Lindsay but I'm stuck at Step 3. I can't figure-out how to use the lasso and magic wand at the same time :? According to your "history" you use the lasso for a number of steps and then follow with the magic wand. I manage to lasso the area I want (and hold down control and lasso until I get the whole area). Then when I go back and magic wand the lassoed area, it changes my whole picture. Geez...... I feel so stupid :roll:

Edit: It's OK..... I figured it out and managed to get to the end. A wonderful tutorial - thanks!

Pixey thanks for the hold control and lasso till i get the whole area  tip .....
