oh crap, mom is having a meltdown in the gimpvillage, because somebody insulted her "friend" theres a reason he's banned on this site and gimpchat you obviously got a lot of wrong ideas from many tutorials, which was exactly my point this is the second time you try to teach me "a lesson" about somet...

the reason why certain tutorials have such high values is because, he-who-shall-not-be-named copied the values from Photoshop tutorials, without 100% understanding what the values mean or how to translate them properly the Photoshop Bevel & Emboss layerstyle has a value from 1-1000% but a Bevel with...

Thanks Esper. Very nice interesting displacement effects in your links.

There are no displacement effects in my links.

I can't look at auto logo's anymore without Espers remarks in mind :) Haha, thats great ! It also explains a lot of other things. For example, in the 80ies there were lots of record covers and videogames with a desert landscape inside text, made with an airbrush. And this is often imitated in moder...

This is great for studying how real chrome looks like !

Esper, I don't understand what you said to me about I could place the final glass text on other point, even on other different picture. How? I mean that the glass reflect will belong to the original picture. Thanks a lot. The main idea is not to glassify an image. The idea is to distort an image li...

I gave this a go and I think my results look alright.
What do you guys think of my results.

Cool, Wallace !
(i was hoping you would give it a try ! )

@Ella
i see, interesting approach !
maybe that solves my contrast problem


i always use a black layer set to 'Saturation' Mode for the black/white effect (with a layermask where i dont want it)
that minimizes the filesize (opposed to duplicating the image and desaturating it)
