This one is another I see all the time so I thought it might be quick so I went for it. I am trying to squeeze in 2 tutorials today to make up for the one I missed. So I went with one that I thought looked easy. I found it at www.photoshopstar so go a head and head over and see if it’s your cup of tea.

Here is their finished product, pretty simple looking but it still has something.

I took it and tried to make it my own a little, with the grunge on the bottom. The steps did not work out for me exactly the way I expected, the gradient that I put over the text did not end up like the tutorials. I followed it exactly and then tweeked it around a little to see if I could get it but I couldn’t. I could sit around and really go at it and I have no doubt that I would figure it out, but I’m not going to do that. I am doing these tutorials to learn something not to perfect every one so it looks just like the original. So the tutorial was kind of difficult to follow in my opinion not just because of the gradient but there were some other steps that I didn’tget. This tutorial did have a PSD you could download though so maybe the secret is in there.

This one has been popping up on all my searches I see it all the time and decided to pay attention and just do it. I think it just looked to simple to do or something so I always just over looked it. But why not do it anyway, I am trying to make up for missing my tutorial yesterday so why not just get to work.

Here is what the guys at oogletutorials.com came up with it’s pretty cool, but it did give me a a funny idea..

I am really into LOST and this past season was awesome and this is my tribute. I used the same picture they did, all of my beach pictures are buried among my notebooks of picture CDs. This was a very easy tutorial and took very little time for me to complete. This honestly took like 4 steps total so go and see for yourself.
