Sharp Posted November 22, 2009 Author Share Posted November 22, 2009 Lower the saturation on the background of the bottom one, or just change the color, and it would be better.

Leviathans_Fury Posted December 3, 2009 Share Posted December 3, 2009 This is a new one I made, it's kind of big, designed for a 1080p (1980x1080) screen. Hidden Content: I hope you like it Oh, and on the glow layers I set the property to overlay, so now it seems to actually glow rather than just add a white "haze" or something Quote If your parents never had any children, then you probably won't either.

Spocki Posted December 31, 2009 Share Posted December 31, 2009 Step 2: Setting Up Your Background. Start with your default canvas, and paint it black. Add a new layer, and set the secondary color to transparent. Now pick the lighter, or less dominant color, and set the to the primary color, and change the value to 100, if it's not there already. Draw a radial gradient from one of the corners. Add a new layer, and lower the saturation to 30-50ish. Draw another radial gradient from the same corner, and lower the opacity of the layer. Now flatten, and add a new layer. Hey, i want to make one of these for my background! (1920x1080) But i fail while translating the tutorial intot german... I dont know what to do from step two! Default canvas, paint it black -> done!! New layer, sencondary color changed to transparent -> done!! Then picking the lighter or less dominant color?? What do u mean with the lighter or less dominant color? I thought the lighter is this: Then again set the primary color? I am addled.... I tried to draw some lines, but they doesent look that good than yours.. What do i have to do?? (I need help) I hope u can help! :wink: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sharp Posted December 31, 2009 Author Share Posted December 31, 2009 Just change primary color to the lighter color you picked Quote [Glass Ball Tutorial] [My Gallery] [starscape Tutorial] [My Sig Tutorial] [My dA] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bfw30 Posted January 14, 2010 Share Posted January 14, 2010 hi. I don't understand this: Now Set your secondary color back to white, and fade out the far end with a linear transparent gradient. Add a new layer, and repeat with your second color, then merge it down. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sharp Posted January 16, 2010 Author Share Posted January 16, 2010 Ok, so first change your secondary color, to white. Now use the gradient tool, and change it to :AlphaChannel: , and make sure it is a linear gradient, :LinearGradient: and draw a gradient from end to end. Now move the nubs to fade it how much you want, and right click if it is fading the wrong way. Now add a new layer, draw another line with the second color you chose at the beginning, and do it again. Merge this layer down.

Arbruteblade Posted February 6, 2010 Share Posted February 6, 2010 One I made in a few minutes using mainly green and blue and being lazier with the circles, using a different plugin for the gradient, and other stuff like that. I also made this one, it took me longer, and is my new desktop background, I chose not to put in any dots... Hidden Content: The effect that can be made with this technique looks really good, well done. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DVD Posted February 8, 2010 Share Posted February 8, 2010 hello! First of all i love this tutorial. I'm new here and also to paint.net so i have a question, how do i make the end of the lines gradient? Thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sleepwalker123 Posted March 18, 2010 Share Posted March 18, 2010 My try! Sorry it's a lot like yours, it's my first time using Paint.net and I decided to just follow the tutorial like it was.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TruePaintNetta Posted April 5, 2010 Share Posted April 5, 2010 (edited) I must say this is an excellent tutorial.. Simple, yet effective. I made it slightly differently from the tutorial's steps.. I think the outcome is pretty good. EDIT** Second attempt.. I think I like this one better. EDIT** Third attempt.. This time I rendered an army member and placed it in. This sig was for my friend. I dedicate my gfx life to proving that PDN can produce just as good results as Photoshop! My friend, when showed these, did actually believe they were made in photoshop. Just goes to show, PDN produces just as good, if not better results than Photoshop. PDN ftw! Edited April 6, 2010 by TruePaintNetta Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
