Tip for selecting FONT LAYER without Quick Selection Tool.

Right Click Layer With Font, click Select Pixels

[Hyperspazzman]

Maybe if you would talk in your videos or have a website with samples and downloads for people to follow along, then maybe you wouldn't get people asking you to do their suff all the time. To be quite honest the lazer animation was pretty lame. No offense.

@Hyperspazzman This was a one off when I did all this stuff. Don't lectur me about what I should or shouldn't do in my videos. Sorry, you're so perfect I will be sure to send 9,000 people your way for you to make the BEST GFX for them and with perfect tutorials. Thanks for the utterly pointless comment.

[Hyperspazzman]

@millzi69 wow! Attitude. I wasn't trying to be cruel and mean. I am a graphic art designer with a bachelors degree. I was just trying to give some constructive criticism. There is nothing wrong with that. Sorry if you took it wrong lol.

[millzi69]

@Hyperspazzman Oh wow. I just went on your page and you don't have a SINGLE video. Don't comment when you don't meet the standards I've set. This was done very close to a year ago, GFX have changed MASSIVELY in that time so it isn't going to match what you see now, next time you wanted to comment, make it constructive and actually take note of when this was done!!

[Hyperspazzman]

@millzi69 Uh. I do have videos. I have 3. Infact I am working on a tutorial right now.

If your going to put videos up here you should know by now not everyone is gonna be nice or they are going to give you constructive criticism. If you can't take that then you shouldn't be putting up videos as you said you stopped doing that. Oh well. Live and learn I guess eh?

[SOLOxIMaSLUG]

im having trouble on step 10 can you help me:(

[devilownd]

Help? I try to select a letter, but the lines dont apear around each letter. But the whole thing =\ help? ive followed descripton

[internesta]

[millzi69]

@internesta

The font is your choice, this is only a tutorial, not a dead set rule. You can use whichever font you prefer the most.

[Skitzafreniac]

Ill make GFX for people I think its fun. Im on GBs or youtube send me ideas colors texture font. Or just words and leave me open to have fun.

[ImHuBbAxBuBbA]

[TheGo2GamiinGuy]

the text tutorial really helped. thanks

[doomkidkiller]

thx man this is just what i was looking for just started using photoshop 6 hrs ago (iv been in bed most of it and already i have made this

(i had made .gif b4 but this makes them so much easier)

[NotThatStrange]

After I save it, the quality of the file is really bad

[MATTisTEXMEX]

whats the code for the background?ex-ff007

[millzi69]

@MATTisTEXMEX

Just do what it says in the description, copy and paste the background colour you want, then use a swatch tool and paste the swatch into your colours :) I would have told you but I have a new laptop and don't have or use Ps anymore. Hope that was a help.

[OocomputerhelpoO]

Thanks a Lott

[GFXUnreal]

I cant save it like where it says save.... it's grey and i cant click on it

[millzi69]

@GFXUnreal

Don't go save as, you need to click Save For Web & Devices then when you click save or Done in there make sure it is saved as a .gif file :) Hope this helps :)

[GFXUnreal]

@millzi69

thats not what i meant i mean like when i went to file the save for web and devices was gray but i deleted and reinstalled its fine now

[millzi69]

@GFXUnreal

Oh right I get you, you mean like it was greyed out and you couldn't click it :) My misunderstanding :) Hope you are finding it easier now.

[GFXUnreal]

@millzi69

yeah it's all good now, although your video is the only one i can find for lazers and im looking for a more detailed because im starting gb profile animations on my own :)

[xManny19]

@millzi69

how u use clor grabber

[millzi69]

Its down the left hand side mate :) above the hand, you may have to click the little arrow in the bottom right corner of the tile. Then you click on the colour you want and right click it into all your colours :)

[Ericleonard4]

Thanks. Your video is the only video that actually worked!

[PappaBulge]

Very good tut thank you very much keep making videos.Can you tell me some good fonts? and is this possible with Paint Shop Pro x2.Thank you very much and i would appreciate it if you could answer my questions.Thank you again.

[millzi69]

Thanks for the comment. I haven't used or heard of that programme so I wouldn't be able to help you in how you can do it i'm sorry but I am sure it is possible to do something along the same lines, search Photoshop CS3 For Free here on YouTube and then you will be able to get the same software as me =] The fonts i use mainly are, Philly Sans, Neuropol, Amsterdam Grafiti, Birth of a Hero and Cheri Liney. Have a look on DaFont[dot]com for some really good fonts =] Hope this helps you mate.
