- modeps, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2Wow, now even tutorials are getting put on the main page. When will we get some sort of real moderation here?
- qbix, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1Lame indeed. I mean, I do photoshop for a living but even back in the photoshop 3 days when I was a n00b I would've found this quite useless.
- chopcow, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1I did a search in Google for "Fake Software Box" and this thread was the first link to show up.
I was the one that created this tutorial. It was entertaining to read all these responses. Glad that 1 person out of 50 liked it. Haha.
Peace! - Ryland, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1Wow, I pity any Photoshop n00bs who actually use this tutorial and think it's good technique.
There should be a "fil" or "burry" option as well as a "digg" option - so we can fill in the hole this was dugg out of. - CrispyMo, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1this was in the photoshop tutorials that were posted earlier today...
- kevsedg, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1Hey chopcow: I also liked it.
- c367dotcom, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1I absolutely hate those fake boxes. If you don't sell a physical box. Why have a picture? Products that do this look suspicious and fake IMO.
- inactive, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1I'd love to see someone who is not very proficient with photoshop try to replicate those steps. ha ha... that has got to be the lamest "tutorial" I've ever seen. Quite obviously not the proper way to create a box in photoshop.
- brink668, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1yes someone already posted about the entire site PLEASE stop doing this its getting DIGG messed up it was fine before.
BTW BEING FIRST TO POST SOMETHING IS NOT COOL ANYMORE THAT WAS LIKE YEARS AGO! GEEEZ why do we keep posting same crap ove rand over again this should be /ban - tweek, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0A better way would be to use a free 3d object of a box (.3ds file) and import it into photoshop. If you can afford it, KPT5 has a cool feature that lets you do it. Otherwise, just use the pen tool and make a shape out of it before you put the branding on it.
- Leonaken, on 10/12/2007, -1/+1This isn't a very good way of doing a software box. I'm proficiant in Photoshop, and that is NOT the way you go about producing "box art".
- Jaysturn, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0This tutorial could have been a lot more streamlined... no digg.
- mutant, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0@ thatedeguy

- mutant, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0badwidth exceeded.. need to start using nyud.net:8090 when submitting sites. Feel bad for these site owners.
- sych0, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0haha, digg is now owning websites. Whos gonna start up mirrordigg.org?
- tarZen, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0There is one obvious error with the tutorial, if you want to do it this way. You should create the whole set of graphics, merge the layers then distort all in one step. That is so much faster and accurate, and you also get to keep a 2D copy.
- devr, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0Well, the best way to do it is to creat the entire front, and the entire side seperately in 2d. Then just use distort to make it 3d, add some gradients to make it look more 3d. Also for the shadow you probably want the shadow to have a gradient layer mask so it fades out as it gets further from the box.
- rhyno2000, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0Agreed.
- Single tutorials don't belong on the front page
- Tutorial quality itself is poor
- Let's have _some_ kind of moderation - dbr_onix, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0Moderators would defeat the purpose of this site.. You are a moderator..
- Ben - jawsomemax, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0stupid.. no digg..
@modeps- I aggree, a stupid story, but just report it, because there will be no moderation without us reporting the stupid stories like this one.. tutorials shouldnt make it to the front page, they have their own section - inactive, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0Excellent tutorial worked brilliantly. Site has amzing tutorials
- Thrashtastic27, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0Looks like crap, and there's a noticeable seam in the lower left corner (the left face is longer than the front).
- tripm, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0oof, screwing in a lightbulb in 426 easy steps.
- microbio, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0Why can somebody post "How to create Fake $$$$ in Photoshop?"
That is THE DIGG! - skyhighrockets, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0hey everybody! lets post every single photoshop tutorial there is!, no matter how old it is! then we'll get dugg! yah!

- evil-doer, on 10/12/2007, -1/+0what the ***** hell? a single photoshop tutorial? as much as a love photoshop, this is so not digg worthy.
- Gringo, on 10/12/2007, -1/+0The 2 best websites I found for Photoshop tutorials are:
http://www.photoshopcafe.com/
http://www.eyesondesign.net/
I am sure some people will disagree, there are a lot of really good ones but these are my favorites. - Ianmacisaac, on 10/12/2007, -1/+0lame
- -=Ross=-, on 10/12/2007, -1/+0Pointless?
