Week 50

Assignment 1 - Metal Plates

Here are my two metal plates. For the first I used a cutout text, using one of my favorite fonts, the BellBottom Laser font. Also, I wanted something to give them some color so used tubes on both. Looks like a lime daiquiri to me! Wow, I'm getting thirsty!

On the second one, I put screws and a cup of coffee as well as transparent text. Won't you join me in a cup of coffee? (It might get a bit crowded with both of us in that cup, but hey! What's a little closeness among friends? LOL)

Assignment 2 - Red Gradient Trick

Well, once again we have a tutorial with some conflicting instructions. When selecting the color range, one can't follow the instructions exactly as PSP doesn't do what the tut says. Oh, well, I figured it out, anyway.

Assignment 3 - Caper Gradient Trick

I like to give a little life to my graphics, especially when are somewhat colorless. Interesting use of various effects in PSP 8.

Assignment 4 - Rings

Again, interesting use of effects. I learned about some things I didn't know were there, but can I remember them? Only if I don't have a senior moment! LOL
