Title: Bored @ Work - New Monster BG Post by: arai_speed on August 12, 2010, 10:53:06 AM So having some free time today and not wanting to read tech articles I came up with this.
(http://i38.tinypic.com/160o17l.jpg) Not sure what you all think and I'm not really sure what I was going for....just playing around w/some PS effects. Full res version is here if you like it: http://i34.tinypic.com/9vdqc0.jpg (http://i34.tinypic.com/9vdqc0.jpg) [beer] Title: Re: Bored @ Work - New Monster BG Post by: Blackout on August 12, 2010, 01:04:56 PM Your company hiring? ;D

Title: Re: Bored @ Work - New Monster BG Post by: arai_speed on August 12, 2010, 03:19:09 PM Haha....unlikely...I'm a salaried employee so they don't care about my time as long as projects are delivered on time and budget. Plus I work from home :)

Makes it look like it's pasted on the bg. IMHO, less strength on the sepia and desaturate the bike a bit - if you want that dual sepia/color setup. Also, if you're going for an old image type of look, add some noise (subtle) and play around with the layer blending modes for the noise layer.

Here it is w/less opacity on the bike and a bit more "dust and scratches" (http://i33.tinypic.com/28aok0h.jpg) Title: Re: Bored @ Work - New Monster BG Post by: Javamoose on August 13, 2010, 10:02:58 AM [thumbsup] Much better!
