hmm when i cnat think of anything for bg's i just browse through otehr folks until something catch's my eye...those bishi sets are good for that....

anyways..how about a half-tone based bg?..not seen one of them in a while...

quick mock up..

i know the halftone filter but...how did you do that? :huh: (remember i have PS6)

[Xebec]

TDL's halftone plug-in i think....can probably do the same with built in half-tone filter or retro-dots....k..what exactly did i do...

Extraction first....duplicated the character...took the bottom version...selected it (ie <ctrl>+click on layer)...expanded the selection area 50px or so....picked a nice blue...<alt>+bkspace to fill it...deselected it...gaussian blured that layer another 50 then TDL Halftone on that et voila...

[Candy-chan]

excuse my ignorance but...TDL halftone plug-in? what and where is that?

[Candy-chan]

well since noone explained ( anyway i think its anothrer thing i dont have in PS6 ) well i tried something else '-';

[Xebec]

didnt you get my pm?...ach dont matter..

first off i messed it up...it was VDL not TDL....VDL (Van-Der-Lee) is company that make some, well to be honest, not very good plug-ins for photoshop....one of the best the do is Half-tone..very flexible it is...look it up on thier website here...
