Create radial patterns using type
As a letterer, I find a lot of beauty in the shape and form of letters, and I like to play with different ways of using them, other than simply laying them out in readable fashion. The shapes are so interesting in themselves that we can use them as you would any other shape object to build new and maybe even more pleasing results. In this tutorial I’ll show you a quick and easy way to use letters to make some complex, ornate and highly customisable radial patterns. 01 First, choose a typeface and type out all of its characters. As well as the standard letters, look for shapes that will create interesting patterns when we move on to the next stages. I’ve used my own typeface, Muirside, as I thought the gaps in the stencil font would add further detail for more varied patterns, but you can use anything you like. 02 Next, type out one of your chosen letters and convert it to an outlined shape by highlighting it and going to Type>Create Outlines (Cmd/ Ctrl+Shift+O).

Color Splash Effect in Photoshop CS6
I’m finally back from vacation, armed with thousands of photos that I really don’t know what to do with. So over the next few weeks, as I’m sorting through the photos I took in London and Paris, I’ll be releasing tutorials and providing you with the images so you can follow along. In today’s image, we’re going to attempt to single out the red phone box, leaving everything else black and white. If you want to download this image, click on the image below. First, we need to single out the red in the phone box. This feature works by allowing you to select specific colors of your image, either by choosing a basic color from the dropdown, or by sampling your color of choice. Further, changing the Selection Preview at the bottom to Black Matte shows us that the selection is somewhat faded. Let’s try out the sampling method. Now if there are reds that have not been selected, holding down your Shift key and clicking on the additional tones will include them in the sample. And there you have it.

100 wonderful photo effects Photoshop tutorials
How can we define what’s a photo effect? That was my main concern when I started the research to build this list. Despite of this situation, I had one thing clear: the final result had to be quite different from the orignal picture and be recognized as a post production photo manipulation. That idea would leave all kind of complex photo retouching and subtle color correction out of the discussion. So, with that idea in mind, I gathered what I consider 100 of the best photo effects Photoshop tutorials available on the web.
