Making Liquid Metal:

Okie
i read the tutorial on this sites
about Making Liquid Metal
but i dun get some step
okie those are the step i dun understand
the question are inside the quotation mark


Step 5.
-Now run the difference clouds filter TWO times and it should look similar to the graphic I put up on the left.

-Now take that channel and drag it into the create new channel to "duplicate" the original channel.

-Now on your "duplicate" channel hit Ctrl/I to "invert" the channel.
"
"The Thing i dun get about this step is
what channel
the one i was working one
why does it said drag into??"

i try to right click on Alpha1
and duplicate it
and it make a new one called Alpha2"

Step8.
-Click your Layers tab and create a new layer and fill that new layer with black.

-Now Go back into your Channels tab, and Ctrl+Click the channel you have been working on to "activate" that channel. You should now have a scattered amount of the "marching ants".

-Now go back to the new "layer" you just made and with the selection still "active" fill that area with white. Once you have it filled hit Ctrl+D to "deactivate" it.

"Okie i did went to Layer and make a new layer called Layer 1
i did went to Channel and Ctrl+Click on the Alpha 2(the duplicate of Alpha1)"

"But i did try to use the Bucket to fill the area with white
i can't seem to fill it
why is tis??
and i try to press Ctrl-D
but when i try to save it as
GIF
i it came out with a black BG "

LEARN THE PROGRAM

Please look at this forum. Do you notice anything? Latest Topics? Replies to posts?

Let's start with replies. Every other topic, created by another user, has, just a handful of replies. Why is that I wonder? Probably because someone gave them the answer, and they knew what to do, or someone gave them an answer, and they didn't reply back. And in a lesser scenario, they asked for help, they didn't better explain their problem, or either figured it out on their own.

Latest Topics? Well, they mostly seem to be you, bud. And people give you the answer, and you still want people to baby-step you through it. 42 replies to one post? 23 to another? 37 to another? WHY does it take that many replies to get the point across? And they're STILL active topics. WHY?

Sit down. READ THE HELP FILES. LEARN what the program does, THEN attempt to follow tutorials, that tell you EXACTLY what to do.

I'm sorry, but you want people here to walk you through everything you do, and that gets old real quick. You need to understand the program, and how it works, and you will find you don't need everyone to hold your hand as you try to use the program.

This is a help forum yes. A babysitting service it's not. You will never learn anything, if every time you attempt to make something in Photoshop, you come here and expect people to walk you through it step by step, to go out of their way to "make an example" for you, which will obviously not get you very far, and keep, going on and on and on this way.

If for some "odd" reason, you don't have help files, go here and read: http://www.arraich.com/ps_intro.htm

He gives great explanations of the tools, how to use them, what they do, and anything else you want to know. You obviously don't know how to use the Channels palette, and I wonder why that is? Go to that site. He will explain that for you. Then maybe, these problems will make sense, and you can correct them\figure them out yourself.

You're not helping yourself, and Im sorry if I've been harsh, but I'm being honest. You're not learning the tool you wish to use, you want others to carry you through it, and that simply will not work. It won't work in Photoshop, as much as it wont work in a real job.

if u dun want to help
dun reply

i am just asking for help

and u know what
i did what the tutorial said
and i dun everything about the tool

you fill me

but i dun get those part above

if u dun feel like helping

just ignore this post

No, see. I'm willing to help anyone. Just not those that don't wish to help themselves.

I gotta agree with Mobile, and I'm getting sick of helping someone when they don't help themselves.

You obviously didn't take an ass to learn what a specific tool can or can't do.

I've been a newbie myself but i wanted to learn, and i experimented, even came out with a really cool tutorial called the gel pod.

Its been 2 years since i used photoshop, and i'm still learning
you give up too soon, read the tutorial properly, if you don't know how to use something check the help files.

Still don't understand?? Read simple tutorials so you'd understand how a tool works...

There're a lot of tutorials out there, obviously you chose to skip the simple ones and move straight to the advance stuff, take your time, photoshop ain't running nowhere...

Btw, you've been asking alot of sh*t, and none of us has seen any work coming out from you....

Honest?? well its an addition to me previous rant

oh my

I was pissed off, the fact that a simple step couldn't be done

can u guy read the question again
this ain't
about no toolz

i'm not going into this .. you have 6 threads, all dealing with all too basic stuff
