    Learn how to do it and create your own masterpiece with those techniques.
  • eflouret, on 07/13/2008, -3/+3Check my friend Steve's site: http://www.photoshopessentials.com.
    It is one of the best beginners (and advanced too) users tutorials sites around.
  • smaisch, on 07/13/2008, -2/+2Nik Ainley is one of the most talented dudes in the industry today. Respect!
  • infernal6, on 07/13/2008, -1/+1yeah... probably some sort of necromantic ceremony is gonna take place. *grabs shovel and cloak*
  • eflouret, on 07/13/2008, -2/+2Yeah, I know what you mean. It is very hard to come up with a good compilation lately. But don't be so hard on these tutorials, many people can find some good use to them.
  • Gforce20, on 07/13/2008, -2/+1Personally, "Super Slick Dusky Lighting Effect" was my favorite. He used a fancy cursive font as a vector decoration, lol.
  • Bluestump86, on 07/13/2008, -3/+2anndddddddd bookmarked

  • bipolarruledout, on 07/13/2008, -9/+3Lens flare better not be on here.
  • mu0p, on 07/13/2008, -11/+5This is a good selection, but a lot are repetitive, just "light beams" with different names
  • inactive, on 07/13/2008, -9/+3Thankyou!
    More please.
  • inactive, on 07/13/2008, -7/+1what an awful piece of crap. this is why i hate deviantart. ART? LOL.
  • infernal6, on 07/13/2008, -9/+2I see dead people :(
  • beankitty, on 07/13/2008, -8/+1Something Wiccan this way comes.. :)
  • infernal6, on 07/13/2008, -11/+4Way to steal os x stock backgrounds in "The soft sea light"
  • prophotolife, on 07/13/2008, -9/+2Great collection, thanks for taking the time to compile it all.
  • ashakeandfrys, on 07/13/2008, -13/+6Lame.. why is everyone getting dugg down?
  • aenegeling, on 07/13/2008, -9/+2Good collection. I think this style however (light beams, etc) has been overused. A few of those compositions lighting in particular makes no sense at all, particularly the comp tutorial from PSDTUTS. =)
  • pacpub, on 07/13/2008, -8/+1Some of these effects are a bit over the top for my taste, but most are quite good. And the detailed instructions are awesome. Thanks.
  • R2Bacca, on 07/13/2008, -10/+3Wow... not too many dugg up comments here..
  • Shade2074, on 07/13/2008, -9/+1Sweet
  • aserer511, on 07/13/2008, -11/+3God I could use a good tut on photoshop; I can't even do most of the basics.
  • TYEZ, on 07/13/2008, -9/+1iphone?

  • 360photo, on 07/13/2008, -10/+2Its not easy being cheesy...
  • theadvinci, on 07/12/2008, -12/+4Nice tutorial collection.
  • inactive, on 07/13/2008, -13/+5I really need to spend more time in photoshop. Good find.
  • Leirsgrios, on 07/13/2008, -11/+2Some good tutorials, some...not so good tutorials. Lots of cheesy, and very crappy imaging effects in there. Still very well done, none the less.

  • sgmsolutions, on 07/13/2008, -11/+2Really nice tutorials.

  • ghaltmann, on 07/13/2008, -13/+2Most of these look like crap and are amateur at best. Though, if you're trying to make your myspace profile look good I guess this is for you.
