Re: Beautiful!
Can you do me a favor Jiffy and post a pic of what the curves layer should look like? My curves isn't working right, and it's making the icon look wrong!

Re: Beautiful!
OK, you CANNOT type it in. It makes it look all weird and stuff when you type it in, so try just moving it to the right spots.. That should work.. If not, let me know, and I'll show ya

Thank you, Nicole!!!

Wow, this tute was really helpful! :D I have flirted with selective colour but this tute taught me how to make the skin tone in a greyish, dull image really pop and look gorgeous.
I'll finish fiddling with the icon and post it for you to see. I'm thrilled coz I've been going in circles trying to figure it out. Now some stuff make sense! :D

Thanks so much. ♥ Meming this, and would you mind if I added this to fave tutorials at my graphics journal? :)
[info]ohlovexx on May 1st, 2008 11:05 pm (UTC)
Thanks so much! And no, I wouldn't mind at all!
[info]princess_narnia on May 2nd, 2008 12:06 pm (UTC)
Lovely. :D I'm adding it now...I can't wait to try out your other colouring tutes. :D

This last one really upped my confidence I was able to figure out how to work the selective colour layer. :D
