Iwonder_who Posted March 26, 2011 Share Posted March 26, 2011 Hey guys, Am wondering if anyone has a solution to my question. I have jpg images I want to appear like open book pages. I dont want just a corner turning along one edge but to have the image look like an open book page. Can anyone help please? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ego Eram Reputo Posted March 26, 2011 Share Posted March 26, 2011 You mean bending the text like it's on a page? Try Tube Effect (aka tube oblique?) . Bending the text: 1. Duplicate your image layer :DuplicateLayer: (just in case - or if you want the bend on one side only) 2. Run TubeOblique on the top layer. Shift the second slider slightly to the left (-22 gives a nice page bend). 2a. If you want to remove one side of the bend, select t hat side of the top layer and press delete. Shadowing the spine-curve 3. Create a new layer :AddNewLayer: 4. Set primary to a nice light grey like 7F7F7F. 5. Do a linear gradient from spine side of image toward centre of 'page' 6. To remove the white, run Black and Alpha+ at defaults (or select the white with the magic wand at a fairly low tolerance & press delete). 7. If shadowing is too intense, press F4 & lower the opacity.

Iwonder_who Posted March 26, 2011 Author Share Posted March 26, 2011 YES! Thank you it's almost what I need.... but it's for an image not for text, I also need the curl in the book on both sides of the image and in reverse if you know what I mean. For example I want to place MY image over the one below: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
