Crimson Posted August 5, 2008 Share Posted August 5, 2008 That is most likely a stock image. You have to ask LFC himself about that. However, I found a way to reasonably imitate that effect... 1. Do the "crystalline effect" tutorial. 2. Run Stylize > Emboss at default settings. 3. Go to Brightness/Contrast and turn both down, Brightness all the way and Contrast about 3/4th the way. It doesn't look exactly similar, but that's all I could think of.

KonArtist Posted August 5, 2008 Share Posted August 5, 2008 Other than that you might be able to do the smae thing with the random lines plug-in I will try it. EDIT: Didn't work as good as Crimson's way... Quote Gamertag 360: xX 8 Balll (Three L's) Free Web Hosting Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LFC4EVER Posted August 5, 2008 Share Posted August 5, 2008 Well, both Crimson and KonArtist have got it wrong, although Crimson's method does produce a nice effect! This is how i think i did it: How to create a wood type background thing, found in my Rainbow sig found in my gallery 1) Fill the layer black. 2) Effects > Noise > Add noise, intensity up to you but saturation must be 0. 3) Effects > Blurs > Radial Blur, default settings although you can change quality to the max. 4) Effects > Blurs > Splinter, settings are your choice, but for great results a medium-high distance is good. Also, the Mode must be on darken. That is vital. 5) Effects > Stylize > Relief, angle of your choice. That was how the effect was created, i dunno if i did other things to it as it was a while ago.
