Sulfide Dream...

[lostinbeta]

Hey everyone, I was messing around in Photoshop today and I came up with this.


Ironically this whole image spawned from just a screenshot of Photoshop I took for someone so I could show them where something was in it, but then I got to messing with the screenshot and screwed it all up and stuff.

So yeah, a typical screenshot turned into this...

Let me know what you think :beam:

Love it? Hate it? or "Who cares it is just a screwed up screenshot!?"

Hmm....I don't think that type of text goes well with your design, but if the text was another type of font then it would be cool. I like the use of different size circles, it sort of gives a little indication of depth. Also in the center I see a tad bit of color, I think it would be nice if maybe the color carried out more.

Ok...please don't kill me....:*(

Font: I liked it, but it was so hard for me to find a font to match that I couldn't find one I loved with it, so I just kept that.

Color: Yeah, I didn't know I was going to save it in the end so I got rid of the thing with the color :( I tried adding color in other ways but it didn't look so hot. My comp was/is lagging so I had to close out Photoshop, I will either restart and try tonight or just retry tomorrow for that.

EG: you know lost..........now that you mention it........i had one as well.......its very hazy tho

Mak: i KNEW IT!!! uR ALL ALIENS!!!

[lostinbeta]

Mak: Yes... ok.... ummm... sure :)


And yes, that came just from a screenshot of Photoshop with it opened....lol. I was bored, what can I say?

Any constructive criticism?

[Makaveli]

ok, i don't like those circly things around the center object, they detract from its overall impression, you need to create surroundings that highlight the center object since thats what creates the instant interest of the eye,

oh and i actually like the font.......... :)

[lostinbeta]

I like the font too, don't love it, but I like it :)

And for the circlies, I like them :)

[morse]

I like the circles too... I would make the text a bit smaller though.

[lostinbeta]

LOL... is there anyone else other than me that likes both the circles and the text? ;)


I might try and change the text tomorrow, see if I can find something more fitting to it. Maybe try to add more color to it too, I feel it lacks that, but I couldn't do anything good with it earlier.

[cdr1986]

Yeah, well, it is pretty neat, but I have to say with everyone else, the font does not go with the photo.

[andr.in]

I don't care if the font is right if the pic is good! Nice work!

[lostinbeta]

Thanks :)


I have come to the conclusion that I might need to dl a new font since none of my current ones go good with it.

Any ideas on one? (maybe you have one that you think might look good or something)

[lostinbeta]

:love:


:bump:




(don't mind me, I am bored)

[morse]

Hymmm... Lost I like BitDustTwo, but that is just me. dunno if it would go with the pic.

[lostinbeta]

I think I may have found the perfect font, I need to try it out though. Funny that I found the one I am talking about... you will see why :evil:

[morse]

[lostinbeta]

Alright people, I updated the font and added some color.


I change the picture in the first thread if you want to see it, you go can view it here...

I can't believe I found that font! It fits perfectly with the theme.


But I am not so sure about it 100%. I am choosing only between this font and the font I had on the old one (link to it still in the first thread). Which one do you guys think is better?


What do you think of the added color?

[eyeinfinitude]

awww yeah!!! now that's what I'm talking about!! Looks much better than the one you had before. Your choice of font now goes much better with the composition and there's more color now so it's less dull. I like it. =)

[lostinbeta]

WAHOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


:love: :love:


Thanks EG =)

[andr.in]

yeha that's better! It fits with the image! Very good!

[Soul]

I like it a lot Lost :beam:

I don't see how that came from a screenshot of photoshop though :)

Nice font too

- Soul :goatee:

[lostinbeta]

If you look around the top left of the cirlce in the middle you can see the tools panel ;) Then the bottom is of a new document started with a transparent background. You know that checked pattern they put in there. Yeah, that is the bottom of the circle.


Thanks guys :)
