[andreisabe]

AT last a complete, fast and concrete tutorial!!!!

[zxEPICGAMINGxz]

amazing!!!

[HydroPlume1]

Great Tutorial. But 5:01 is missing....

[sleepyberrylau]

awesome!!! :D

[ThunderHawk606]

Can you make it light blue on the left and dark blue On the right instead of a spectrum/rainbow? Blue would look cooler. :D

[07johngabz]

hey thanks for the tutorial!! I really liked it =D

[IvySkyGem]

awesome! thank you :D

[605504]

another cool effect that i found!

/watch?v=gCSRtLEGfOg

its a wallpaper one

[jesflory]

Cool! great tutorial! I have done two variations of this tutorial! Stars and confetti! I like a little bevel and glow for an effect. It makes the the image pop out! Thanks.

[Locator3000]

Make a brush with 010010101010101 and mask over it with that and it would look like a gay matrix

[TheGoodmorning53]

why not octotits xD

[sidanjohn4]

good one but you didn't did the sparkling effects that was given the picture

[jerimiahriesgo]

The control shift not working

[teddybrawl]

awesome job!!

[TheZouls]

@octotuts how did you make that background you already had?

[jeffrockr]

AND HOW DO I USE THE DAMN BRUSH I CREATED THAN?? IT DOESNT APPLY THE SETTINGS ITS JUST A NORMAL SQUARE SHITTY BRUSH

[jeffrockr]

@jeffrockr i tried it again it did the same, i reset my tools, restarted photoshop , restarted and it worked.. thanks than i still dont understand what hapened there

[foffe23]

@jeffrockr Talk louder.

[FlippyHairSwag]

sounds like octotits... hahahaha

[q8babyfacee]

thank you

&

nice job

[macadog1]

FINALLY A TUTORIAL WITH CS5..

thanks bro

[Catherine260991]

Well.. First.. Thanx so easy your tutorial! But not sure, I had a problem here... I don't know, but when I was doing the brush, I can't do it in 90º, there are so disordered ... Not like vertical squares :S What can I do?

[pinkzzzpassion]

cool

[Kapetozzo]

i already knew the commands, i just skipped almost everything and got the idea...

[Wendij22]

My Photoshop is 6.0 Elements. *Sob*! I don't have all those wonderful functions (especially the Layer style bitty!) I can't find it anywhere. Perhaps I can ask my work to borow their Photoshop software! :)

[TheThreeUnited]

Good tutorial, you speak a little fast, I don't mind but other might.

[xMrSandman09]

nice dude! i did exactly what you said. i love your tutorials

[10jgv]

what do I do to get the background white instead of black?.. I can't figure it out cuz it'll always add the gradient colors to the white part..

[Holylicious]

@10jgv Not sure what the problem is exactly, I hope I understood you correctly. When you create a new image, you will be asked what width and height you wish your image to be, further down in this dialog box you will be able to chose "Background content", here you choose white.

[wwefan987654]

dude! you're going too fast! D:

[riccardoNL2]

Is this a re=upload or have i seen this excact tutorial somewhere else? I made this thing about half a year ago...

[blueknight0026]

hey tuts..how come your Photoshop has a picture background??? mine is gray or i can change it to any color..but i wanna know how did you do that picture thing...pls....

[Nerklin]

@blueknight0026 what do you mean, "an image"? It's his background...I guess your Photoshop is in full screen mode. Try pressing "F" a couple of times until you can see your background.

[blueknight0026]

i really don;t know why people dislike this vid//// its cool..

thanks dude...

[AloneWolfTR07]

thx for this simply tut.

[1997AzizAli]

how to make brush smaller

[13x23narutofan13x23]

I dont have the filter? :( someone can say me how i can download it (Where) (photshop cs5 64 bit)

[XxBuBbLeGaLxX]

Umm , I'm not sure why but once I tried adjusting the opacity jitter up to 100% but when I apply onto the picture it just went back to 0% .. Is it an error ?

[Kye999Guy]

Super!! Thx!! Subscribed!!

[Babycakesflys]

Is it just me or does the lines seem like it starts to move a little? :D

[iJigsaw3D]

I bet the people who created the original picture are thinking `the bastard's figured it out!!!`

[Sehbloom]

And I was like: How do they do it? Answer: Seriously simple way... Thank you!!

[jasminegarciaforever]

Thank You. HAHA. that was fun :) i followed the steps and i made something a bit similar to yours. :)

[PwnTh3W0r1d]

SOOO COOOL THANK U SO MUCH!

[MrAsdf4210]

Really good

[ahkat4]

Can photoshop element 10 do this too?

[devanj1000]

Thanks i did it. Really nice tutorial!

[gimkilo57]

hey, it worked!! I'm learning how to use photoshop just by videos on youtube now XD

[C3nsoredGFX]

@gimkilo57 That's the best way to learn.. If you take it at school/university then all you'll learn will be basic photo editing/manipulation.

[Gingakiller]

@gimkilo57 Most people on the internet do that..

[MrsOddLove]

Thanks :D

[nececelle]

Why isn't mine getting black at the bottom? it did before .. :(

[ntotheano]

I laughed my ass off just cause of the way you say ' Hellow ' :)

[AVinkler]

Nice!!

[wav5000kb]

my photoshop dosen't let me use distort can you tell me why?

[GodofMadnessNL]

4:27

~Pokémon sound~

Random square appears...

Random square uses brush...

It's very effective!

[mrpathy]

there is 1 step that is missing, if you can see the rainbow effects are like burned and more glossy that what you did,i tried to use burn tool it didnt work.if you can share it we would take it as your xmas gift!hehehe!!!!nice job.

[David06061]

[ayne88]

[swaraj44]

Quick ? how to get the background inside photoshop to show your desktop

[Starsdoll76]

Thanks!:D

[mikee1129]

I find that Hard Mix also create a nice effect for the rectangles. Awesome video Oct!

[burgdevlugt112]

bro how did you remove the background of your photoshop? or is it standard for you?

[tnglo]

I find keeping the angle at 90 and making the opacity less makes it look better and not so slanted. On cs5 at least.

[EpicPhotoshop]

when press the rainbow thing my backround is still gray

[TutorialTVOfficial]

[jkproductions971]

I have 2 things to say;

1.) Thank you for making these youtube videos, they are a real help and they give me lots of ideas on my youtube background.

2.Is there a possible way to make this as a youtube background? Like that one background you showed in a video were you hold shift and go all the way to the top. Im thinkin this would be cool along with the text reflection. Please respond back. Thank you!  Justin-JKproductions971

[SuperTheBryan]

hey nice vids and u have a video how to download photoshop?

[EbilGrunt360]

How do you make your brush bigger with the keys?

[octotuts]

@EbilGrunt360 use the open bracket and close bracket keys; [ and ].

[mag17041993]

just pess

larger-]

[TippsForPSP]

does ist work with cs3? im german and i didnt find the filter wave at distort

[wildones0001hacks]

You guys make the best tutorials. Because I'm just a beginner.!

[appleslinky]

Hey man, just wondering, what video editor do you use to edit your videos? Is it Premier? I'm sure you would have been asked this a thousand times, so sorry if you have and I just missed it.

[octotuts]

@appleslinky I use iMovie for now. The most I need to edit in my tutorials is a simple fade in and fade out, you don't need big fancy video editing software for that. Although, my preferred movie editing software is Adobe Premier.

[appleslinky]

@octotuts Okay thanks for the reply.

[geschi007]

Great Video, looks really awesome.

But when I adjust the brush and then paint, the squares are rotated and not aligned. Is there a solution to this?

[LusterLaeman]

Great tutorial!!

Hey, do you think you can give a tutorial on making simple layouts for wordpress or something? I'm having a hard time coming up with a background image that can be tiled....it's so frustrating!!! Thanks in advance!!!

[kdbooth97]

what do you use to capture your screen?

[octotuts]

@kdbooth97 screenflow (for mac)

[JayBB100]

Thx

[FlyCarlos]

Thanks, love your videos.

[NOVS12]

Hey, it's me!

You remember me?

Trolled all your videos.

Remember?

You better.

Too bad I don't have PS.

No I don't pirate things like you, sorry.

Thanks for the tutorial!

[octotuts]

@NOVS12 No, I don't remember you. But nice to see you still have no life. I'd like to think that people grow and mature over time, but I guess you don't.

[NOVS12]

@octotuts Lol. You're too funny.

Btw, when you respond, it fuels a troll.

Luckily, I'm not a true troll.

[NOVS12]

@octotuts Hmm, I like the fact how you ignored the whole pirating thing. Is that a HINT?

[MasterTubeTutorials]

@octotuts No life??? everyone has a life...no matter you see it or not anyone can blossom...you know that guy your talking to..who knows?...he could be the founder of a company.....or the future owner of adobe..just NEVER say that ANYONE has no life....because EVERYONE has a life

[romulo4321]

@NOVS12 lol you pay for, what you can get for free? I bet you pay for music too. Hahaha

[NOVS12]

@romulo4321 I didn't say I payed for PS. I have the free trial still.

[iainmacdonaldTV]

@NOVS12 Stop being a pretentious idiot faggot just because you don't pirate shit.

(No, I don't either)

Stop trolling and get a life.

[0987654321284]

you should update itunes. i can see you are using itunes 9 or lower. itunes 10 has a different logo and a feature called ping

[octotuts]

@0987654321284 this video was made a couple weeks ago, i didnt want to upload too many videos at once so i saved it and waited to upload it. i have itunes 10 now.

[iDusten]

Sick, thanks man! Mind checking out my channel and telling what you think?
