Your teacher is right. :wink: Though, it could have been better if you used a gradient map since the background and car colours are different, and your smudging less circular and more straight so it gives a better flow. 9/10

Of course you have to do this by yourself. Everything that you follow from any tutorial would have to be made by themself. Otherwise it'd be ripping. Making LP art and making Tags are 2 different things. Tags consist of many design elements and is much harder than LP art. The tutorials that are stickied mainly explain how to create fun things and how to use paint.net's functions. If you think this tutorial is "vague", I believe you wouldn't have used it for your signature where you used the text.

That's probaly your best tag imo. I love the "matrix" text, smudging, and the colours. 9.5/10

It's okay since it's not a tag. But the lighting is too strong. Gaussiun blur it again. @Pipp: I'm not sure, but THS is probaly busy which is the reason why he asked me to help him out in this guide. If he tells me how to do clipping masks on PDN, then I could post the part for him.

Thanks THS.

I have sent the message to THS in PM for the new update that I wrote. Hope he comes on the forum soon to update this guide.

Interesting smudging. I like the style and the lighting in there. The colours are okay and can do some G-Maps. I can also see a faint checkerboard in there. 9.2/10

Okay. I'll start thinking up of some stuff to add.

Cool. I'll be glad to help. Thanks for the offer too. Do I just PM you some "Tag Design Techniquees" to add to the guide?

What do you mean? (OK, actually, I do have 3 new plugins... 2 ready to go and 1 being optimized by Ed Harvey right now. I'll publish all three when he's done.) A little hint of what they are?

That's okay. Hope you recover soon too.

Well... it doesn't look like he has updated the guide yet pipp....

^^ Eh... that was a fake plugin. Mike and Pyro made that as an April Fool's Joke. It isn't real. So far, the "Liquify" plugin isn't released and isn't created yet for PDN. Hopefully it will be in the future. Hope that clears stuff up for you Kon. :wink:

TopHatSlash, when you said PDN can do clipping masks, did you mean Clipping Masks text or for anything else?

I heard saw you guys talking about it on TF. Didn't know you found out the secret! Can't wait for the write up.
