Any good background creator plugins/editors?


Recommended Posts

Hey! This is my first post and I was wondering what plugins are good for creating desktop backgrounds and signatures. I am a newbie, and really want to get good at this. Thanks for all the help in advance.

 

If there are any other plugins you think I should download let me know.

Short answer: all of them

Long answer: whichever ones you like best

In all seriousness, it depends on what kind of a background you're trying to make. Unless you like the result of running a bunch of plugins at random (believe it or not, there's a plugin for that), you really have to have some form of an idea in mind before you begin.

That said, what sort of a background are you going for? Simplistic? Abstract? Spacescapes? A logo?

Mostly Logo designs. I want to start small by making Signatures, etc.

Well, I suggest you start in the tutorials section of the forums:

There you'll find many different tutorials written for various levels of skill. Try following the tutorials you like and go from there. In each tutorial, the author will list the plugins necessary to complete the tutorial.
