Hrm. First thing I've attempted to make in a long time. It's.. filters.. and a stock image.. not very exciting and I don't like the outcome. Maybe someone can explain WHY it sucks XD.

Also, if you say follow tutorials, please give me a good one to follow because I usually look at them and then think 'I hate what they've just made' and don't bother.
Practice makes perfect. You need to work on blending. Here is a good technique I learnt:
- Select your lasso tool and draw a 1cm away around the whole of your render/stock. (For a stock, you'll have to re-add the background in and erase the focal point where you blended as you'll lose the background in the later step).
- Right click and click "Select Inverse"
- Right click again and select "Feather" and set it at 15.
- Press delete 2 or 3 times and notice the blending.
- For a stock, as I say, duplicate it first and then erase with a soft brush around your focal point so that it stills looks the same. :)
You also need to throw some more colours in there. It's all quite, well...blue!
Some more effects would do it good too.
Just keep trying and don't give up! :)
Thank you. Ugh, I HAD got past this stage. This is what happens when you don't practise.
Can we not edit on this forum? .. Hmm.
Well, since I'm punching out bad sigs I thought I'd post this. It's just the result of messing around with filters tonight.
