Hey pyro thanks awsome tut heres my try:

[ShadowX]

how do you recolor the shadow i'm having trouble with that part and i can't find anything when i search

[Predator]

its explained in the first recoler step. you just have to use effect-->color-->color tint or adjustment-->gradient bars or anything else. i always use color tint for the first step of recoloring, then i just adjust the hue/saturation for the perfect color.

[xxiboyxx]

[Incarnated]

Well i might be late, but get curves+ and take the bars and make them going this way:\ instead of original direction

[Mr.Kris]

[Bluestorm]

Nice tutorial!

Here is my result:

[Quenlin]

Pyro, if I ever take up drawing people, I'll be using the color elements of this to color it, the result should turn out quite interesting. Be a royal pain in the < no swearing >, but if I pulled it off, it would be well worth it.

Also, *steals your current avatar and starts making a banner in that style*.

Great tut!! It takes a while, but deinatley worth it!

I changed a few things in mine, I didn't like the way my text shadow came out, so I axed it, and alos added a logo for my user name.

whatdya think?

[Skater248]

I made a sig using this tut

it was really easy to follow! :wink:

but somehow it has gone :?

Oh well I will post it when I have found it / made a new one :wink:

[Panda Boy]

I think this is like the best sig tut there is.

This is what I got, it's kinda similar to Simple's.

WATT??? A n00b tried a tutorial??? Anyways, I'm new. I tried this. The outcome was alright but I screwed up. I started it at 500x100 or something similar and I didn't like the outcome, I'll try a real one later.

[xRyan]

Awesome tutorial!

Here's my try.

[dongski666]

I'm not sure if I was the one who made it because I can't even remember what I did. I just followed the steps. But there's something wrong with that ellipse thing because when i draw the ellipse it covered the main text so i tried it in the other layers til it became good. But another prob is that I'm not good in coloring especially that ellipse thing which covers the whole pic. But glad this turned out good. I guess I'll be visiting this thread many times to learn this skill. Really nice. Hands down. :wink:

[ForPointSix]

My go at it....

Edit

How would I go about making the black background in the pic transparent???

[Olenlollo]

Im having some problems on step 5 and 6 what is wrong :F

[Taco_Mainiac]

me to all it does to mine is make the middle of the gradient bars all pixely outlined...
