so what's the one big or small yet effective tip you would like to share with fellow artists here that can help them find flow in their work ? My tip :- 'Get on the designing table only when you feel for it, you won't be able to give even 20% of your desire if you are forced to do...

So how many of you out there are equally good with pencil as they are with mouse ? I am good with Shading but not with sketching basically because I never practiced it though I am going for it sometime soon as it will enhance my skills much more.

I just thought that I would share this little piece on info which isn't commonly known that GIMP can support the .ABR format of brushes too which is the brush format for Photoshop. Therefore in the brush department GIMP has an edge over photoshop as it supports Photoshop Specific Brushes + GIMP...

Yes it needs a background and more shiny render to suit the theme in my opinion. Also move the text slightly right so that it will align up with the eyes of the guy it will create a nice effect then.

If you have used paths for shaping up the text then I appreciate that Steven however controlling paths for text shaping is really difficult and needs a lot of practice and even after it can do your head in plus the bigger path the more chances of GIMP freezing are there. Keep it up :)

Fireworks is totally different from Photoshop and GIMP as the latter are raster editors while fireworks has vector capabilities so the proper competitor for Fireworks is Corel Draw. Now coming to the software it is a good one though I haven't personally used it as I prefer Corel Draw instead...

I just shut it down and go to my silent walks. When I am alone the best inspirations come to me but it all depends on the person as some can draw inspiration from silence and nature while inspiration for some comes from society so the best to do when you're stuck is to stop and return when you...

PNG is lossless plus it has transparency that's why I prefer it. JPG is more for photographers than artists as photos are best displayed in JPG format.

looks nice Dy.namik however it maybe the fault of icon but the shadow of globe is a bit defected. Assuming that the cursor is on the globe the shadow must have had an edge below the cursor.

I don't have any forum running right now but when it comes it's either a Graphics related forum or a Web development forum.

Making a reflection is easy. 1) Just make a duplicate layer of the text 2) Transform and flip it vertically (procedure depends on the software) 3) Move it and place it below the original text. 4) Apply full White layer mask to it. 5) Select your foreground color as black and set the...

A border to the wooden area maybe ? And some fine-tuning in the shape of the gloss maybe. Can you tell us what exactly is the image going to be for ?

I create layouts first because that is the hardest job according to me as it shows the practicality of our schematics in our mind.

The last two fingers look like worms a bit :P and the thumb is looking broken to me. But I really like the curves of the palm they look awesome.

I feel that it's time you should start more on layer effects and filters now. and the sixth one is the best for me because of focus management as you have successfully managed to keep the focus on the name. Keep it up.

Looks good but for some reason the headphones are looking out of the box to me and the girl doesn't have expressions suitable for the display of liking of music.
