Well since everyone was making the avatars and sigs wrong I made a tutorial:

Typos :

Introduction :

"(...)called "The paperless coping of his sig and avatar"

Coping -> Handle / Manage a situation

Copying -> Making a duplicate of something

"that look like your own"

"example of what it look like:"

looks

"will it in white"

fill

"diffrent shades"

different

Sorry, Valspy, only messing.

It's a nice tutorial, with clear instructions. Could come in useful for a nice text effect.

Hey val, i was wondering if this is only possible with photoshop?
Ive read the tutorial and if it can be made with something else, what steps from the tutorial will work, and what wont. I was thinking something like Photo plus or any basic imaging software  thanks

You can do it with other programs too: I did it with FireWorks.

The most tricky part was adding the Gloss. To do this you have to copy the text layer(right click > Edit > Copy), then put a solid white square (no outline) that covers the top of it, then paste in it the text as a Mask (Right click > Edit > Paste as Mask), then in the properties window set the tranparency you want. The rest is quite straight forwarded.

Oh sorry guys I didn't read it over.... was in a rush, I will correct it later

Anyone going to answer me? val i was talking to you..........  Is there another way possible besides photoshop?

Wow, nice tutorial. I had a go earlier and it turned out crappy lol

Thanks for all your help guys! (valspy. vaccination,supersonicdarky,) and many more!

Hmm people really like this tutorial. Maybe I should make more
I love how all of you are making new uses for them

You should do a basic tutorial for newbies. Covering everything general and that thread will be where noobies can go and ask questions without being flamed
