[tutorial]Making a Background, for any level of photoshop user. Can't Post

1.Make a new document, any size will do, and any background color.

2.Select the Gradient tool.(Click and hold the paintbucket button, then another option will be displayed, thats the gradient tool.)

3. At the top of the screen, below the File, Edit options, a rectangular box is there, with a down arrow next to it. Click the down arrow, and select or make any combination of colors you like.

4. Then, next to that box, there are a number of mini pictures of different gradient styles, pick anyone for the moment, you can change around in a minute.

5.Now for the fun part, just keep making the gradient lines, wherever you want, and as many times as you want to. Change the gradient style, and do it some more!

6. Just keep doing it until you see the desired look. Its really that easy.

NOTE:If it starts to look bad, ctrl+alt+z as many times until it looks better again. But remember, it only goes back 19 moves.

I made this in like one minute.



I thought people just starting up Photoshop may find this useful. I thought it was pretty neat, seeing as its probably the easiest one here.

Thank you Smile.

Someone should make a sticky, with links of all the tut's on this forum, like the runescape section. But I guess it isn't needed yet as theres only one page.

If everyone could edit the tutorial thread, I would in a heartbeat, but I don't wanna keep updating the top post all day every day Tongue so this will have to do for now. Maybe later I can Make a few threads for the best novice, intermediate, and expert tutorials.
