What Can I do to make it better
Saturday, March 19, 2011 by Disturbedcomputer | Discussion: OS Customization
To me it does look cool or should I say Hot (pun intended)
any way I would like to know what I can do to make it look better.
It just seams like it is missing something.
any ideals, thoughts are welcome.
thanks

I like the faint flame coming out from his T Shirt on his right arm. I think that should be on all 4 extremities. And his neck. A live fire but, faint so's you can still see everything. Nice flames.
And maybe a fire ball in his outstretched hand.

it is just not letting me do it ok I just don't have the no-how to get it
as for the live flame do you mean to make it a video? that would be cool, but I am not there on NO-How yet.
I tried a Mask to cover some of the flame coming out of the extremities but it just did not turn out right for me even tried to copy the layer and drop the opacity and that too did not work for me.. so it is just with the smudge tool ....

too EXPENSIVE I have to go with the GENERIC
not sure what you mean I am mostly black and most of the Speckles on my cloths and extremities are from my Brother not taking a good picture of me and a cheap camera..
here are the colors I used I did try surface Blur very low setting but it make the Picture to Blurry lost too much detail
outer Glow ff0000 red
Inner Glow ffc018 in the oranges/Yellow
Drop Shadow fff8d5 Faint Yellow
No need to be you gave good input thanks

Sorry. didn't know that. What I meant was less around the body, close to it. But I see where that might be a problem. Maybe just a two or three pixel border, sort of an outline following the body's contours.

not me but the picture is on a black back ground.
I tried to adjust the pixels border but every thing is on a Transparent back ground and the Modify is grayed out..
so I think I would have to do it over to get the two or three pixel border
here is one with out the black back ground
Tried to up a PNG but Imageshack says it's too big and there all the same size but here is a jpg

I suppose I should ask first if the flames are on a different layer. I don't know which graphics program you're using but if its photoshop you can do this. The layer where the image is ... create a new layer on top of it. Put your mouse pointer on the image layer and press ctrl + your mouse click. That will load the layer as a selection. Next click on the layer above it, go to edit and where it says stroke click on that. A small dialogue box will open. In it it will ask how many pixels for a border do you want. Also there are selections for inside, center and outside. Click outside and enter the number of pixels, two or three then click okay. This will give you an outline around the body, depending on the color you choose. You can adjust the opacity to match the image then just merge the top layer down. Hope this helps.

I could send you the psd file PS 5
I did it with a Video Tutorial and can't find the site
but I do think it is by Kelby or Corey Barker (Fire Revisited) it a paid site but gave 4 Videos tut's for free to watch I downloaded it
I would say they are but it's just the Luminosity

Is that CS 5 or PS 5. Because I have PS 7. I know that CS5 won't work on PS7 but PS5 might. Let me have a look. Maybe I can come up with something.
