Newest member :D Also I made a mistake on the forum. I use GIMP 2.6.11.

Oh, and here is my try at the first assignment. I don't think it is too good though.... :(

And here is some userbars I made

That light green box around Torterra is really bugging me, and some scanlines, borders, a more userbar-ish text, and the lighter oval part at the top of the userbar would be nice too. Try reading Fatal's tutorial :D
 
Well that tutorial is for Photoshop because some tools mentioned there I think I don't have for GIMP. And that was the first thing I made with GIMP and I am still a beginner at it. And I can't find any good fonts on GIMP :/
 
^That didn't turn out that great. Only shrink by the corners of the picture; never from the sides, top, or bottom.
 
Plus, if there is any "cut" (like the end of the scarf), smudge it or erase that part with a soft brush.
 
Not bad for a first attempt. Not terrible at all.

But n00b text. D: Try century Gothic. Honestly. I don't know what you're using. [times new roman perhaps] but it's one of those fonts that should not be used on tags - ever. Especially when you're first learning to make signatures.

Also, I'd try not to cover her face too much with the petals. They're sort of.. distracting.

But keep up the good work~ <:


@Aggie: Very nice improvement with the 3rd. What you could have tried was brushing with white around the focal and then coloring it.
Yea, I agree. Your font is much more nice and smooth. All I can say is the same thing I said to pokemaster, don't cover the focal too much.
a more userbar-ish text

One of my favorite fonts- ever. :D

This this this this this this this.

I'd try to explain it to you better, but I suck at GIMP myself. Lilsparks could perhaps a little more than I.

Keep up all the good work guys~~~~~~~~~ <:
 
I tried following Roa and tried blending by using the smudge tool and this is what i came up with:

What do you think? Personally I quite like it though..xD
 
I can already see a definite improvement, Aero. :D The blending of the stock is very very good.

Two things: Stick to simple text. For the sake of it, I'd just use century gothic. Second the factral should blend in more/be less apparent.

But yea, that's a definite improvement. :D Good job~

Lower opacity? Or eraser tool? Thanks though.

Im not really good at commenting so I'll just say it's nice..The C4D mainly...where'd you get it?I can't find the lines kind like you have on the left part beside Kisame..

I need help with this GIMP stuff. :/
This might help..
 
@Gliscor: I'm loving it. A little more contrast for depth and it'd be perfect. Possibly a radial white-black gradient to follow the flow.

2nd Assignment:
Stock: http://i55.tinypic.com/2uqbuvn.jpg
Size: 400x150
Text: Lightening or none at all
Due date: Whenever.
 
omg Lightning =0

@EPM: All I see is the render, a black background, some brushing, and a fractal. Not much IMO.
 
I know, I absolutely adore that stock of her. <3333 Such a nice pose, and /extremely/ HQ as well.

@EMP: Basically what Gliscor said, I like the fractal, and it's placement It's just not the right color. The rainbow colors don't exactly work. Also, her face is somewhat over contrasted. I like the concept though.

Keep practicing~ <3
