It has been a year! but I'm not dead. ^_^ Here is a new tutorial I gave to my students yesterday.
We are going from this
to this
♥ I promised to write this tutorial for
melinen ♥
♥ I used Adobe photoshop CS3 but I'm sure it will work with other programs and versions as well.
♥ Sorry English is not my first language, so I think there is some grammars mistakes or even spellings mistakes ^^;;
♥ Lets start~
-First of all, lets start with this
picture.
- Use the Magic Wand tool and select the area which has the tea.
After that copy it and make new layer then paste the selection area. Duplicate that layer 3 times
.
- Choose the First layer of the selection area we made. And then go to Filter> Distort > Ocean Ripple. Then do the same as this pic.
You should do that to each layer we duplicated before or just click Ctrl+F on each of them (Don't do anything to the orginal pic)
- Now go to the image ready. If you use Photoshop CS3 just go to Window>Animation
- Leave the eye beside layer 1 and remove the other eyes from beside the other layers. Do the same thing to the other layers.
Example:
in the Animation bar click under the frame and change to time mood to 0.2 sec.
- View it, and if you liked it go to (File> save optimized as) or (File > Save for Web & Devices)It should be .Gif
Then I resized it to 200x133 pixel
Some other examples, you can see I added another effects as the smoke .
This is after resizing it, so you could see how the animation will be
And this as an icon 100x100
♥ Hopefully it was not so hard for you,
