what constitutes as a selfie?

[ruby panther]

@stoic belfry Just use any photo with a face for the challenge to work.

[stoic belfry]

okay

thanks shawn

any face or mine?

[queen aspen]

Profile Portrait (Challenge #1)

[compact pecan]

Day 1: Personalized Avatar. I applied neural filters to his glasses and his hat. I also added a darker green gradient from the left to the right to add-in a little more green to the overall image.

[spark hamlet]

Here's my "Super Selfie" w/a neural filter for the background for the Day 1 / Challenge #1. 🙃

[compact pecan]

@kindred gate Nice touch with matching the hair and lipstick color. The green background also seems to make the "Matrix" in the sunglasses seem more obvious.

[stoic belfry]

here is a second small attempt

just a filter in my eyes

[spark hamlet]

I love your profile pic. How did you do that?

[stoic belfry]

i think thats a thresholded image

its how i make spray paint stencils

[compact pecan]

@wooden bloom Nice color combo, and your lasso tool with the glasses came out really well! Experiment with the other selection tools - each one has strengths and weaknesses. For the lips, the magic wand or the object selection tool may have gotten into the "crevices" a bit more and given you a cleaner selection.@hot spear nice "alternative" to the glasses - experimenting with the different blending modes might have given you more of a "realistic" look and allow you to see some more of the phone's characteristics.

[west laurel]

Hey I signed up and went through a ton of crap to do a 12 days challenge and now I do t have the permission needed to do the stuff!! Is this a SPAM? Just to get all of our info and send us junk mail for the next 20 years

[still vine]

Here was my go at it. Used the neural filter for the texture on the orb

[still vine]

not quite as realistic as I was hoping for, but I'm not mad at the way the two styles blend together.

is there an offical submission process or do we just post on here?

"realistic" is very subjective. haha. I think it looks great, and the whole point here is to try new techniques, practice techniques that you've tried before, and keep learning. There's no "formal" submission process other than posting here. The mentors and peers will give you feedback on your image so you can improve your skills. Please feel free to provide others feedback as well - thumbs up, comments, etc. We are all here learning!

[unkempt fjord]

Made a new mirror selfie using the camera in the picture, flipped it horizontally to be right-reading, raw capture processed in Lightroom, then taken into PS for play with neural filters. This result used two, one for me, and another for the background.

Does anyone know why my picture displays with muted colors on the Discord app? When I click the 'Open original' link, the colors are much brighter in the browser window. I don't see that issue with other people's images.

[true locust]

Could be due to the color space you're working with vs discord's color space

[inner plaza]

Thanks! None of my other pictures have done that so I think you're right and something happened between Lightroom and Photoshop and the TIF conversion it does... I deleted my posted pic and will try again with a different workflow.

Introduction

[brittle drift]

Thanks Voodoo Val! You're a great teacher! I learned a lot from your presentation and I had so much fun with this 🙂 I couldn't download the complicated neural filters so I used the COLORIZED one to do the solids on my jewelry, eyes and lips.

[true locust]

Just wanted to play around with the neural filters and see what they can and can't do. Interestign tool that I'll have to keep in mind.

[bleak fossil]

@simple idol Great textures, it gives it a slightly aged look which is really cool. The colors have a nice unity as well 👍

@plain sable Great contrast between the background and title text and graphics. It helps it read nicely even with the heavy texture of the background, which looks really nice by the way. It adds a nice element of color, looks good!

@chilly hawk Nice style to this one with all the flat colors and cut out looking shapes. I could even picture a paper texture on all these layers, kind of looks like the cut out paper effect. Very cool!

@kindred gate Really cool, I love how you handled the perspective on the text! Though it looks like the "Photoshop" text doesn't have a blending mode that shows the texture of the road through it like the 2021 does. That along with giving the text a slight iris blur to match the slight blur of the road as it gets further from the camera could be a nice touch. Nice work!

@upbeat coral Awesome, glad you're joining us, welcome in! I really like the color contrast you got in this cover between the doorway and the rest of the image. 👍

@stoic belfry Really interesting texture and colors on this portrait, very cool! If you need a bit of a softer edge when masking the hair the Refine Edge Brush tool and Refine Hair function within the Select and Mask window both do a great job of keeping those softer natural edges.

@wraith estuary Love this one! The subtlety of this effect in the dark side of the face has a really nice look to it that you see on second glance. The color contrast adds a lot of interest too. Great job!

@lucid plover Really great composite with all these images. The layering of the different elements adds some really nice depth. My only suggestion might be to match the lighting of the face and the flowers a bit more, since the flowers seem to be light where the face is dark. Just a thought. Looks great!

@rustic nova Very nice, I like the bold contrast in this and the way the hair frames the face. It has a cool illustrated look to it. Perhaps lightening the background overall might help strengthen the contrast even more by separating the hair from the background and creating a stronger shape. Just an idea. Nice work!

[eternal mica]

@bleak fossil Everything you do counts!!!😋 😋 😋

[bleak fossil]

@hallow bough Ooh really cool, I love the stylization in this. The colors do a nice job of creating some contrast. Perhaps lightening the background might create some nice additional value contrast? Either way it's looking great 😄

Perhaps lightening the background overall might help strengthen the contrast even more by separating the hair from the background and creating a stronger shape. Just an idea. Nice work!

@rocky kite Great color on this, the complimentary colors of the blue and orange give this whole thing a really bold look which works nicely. The background texture looks good too!

[eternal mica]

@inner plaza I had that problem last year and mentioned it in todays chat. When in Lr, I clicked "edit in Photoshop", and got a warning message about the type file that I was bringing over. I didnt know I had to change the file to sRGB. Did you get a warning message?

[bleak fossil]

@neon crystal Loving these effects! The sort of painterly filter looks really cool and the image has some really nice color contrast between the face and the blue sky. Great photo 👍

@unkempt fjord Nice lighting on the original for this image! Really cool effects with the edited image, the bold colors and texture make for some really interesting contrast. I like the sort of yellow outline you got. Nice work!

@simple idol Really cool work with the shapes and colors in this! The effect in the glasses makes for a nice focal point, and there's a nice balance between all the colored graphics in this picture. I like how the resolution/level of graininess seems consistent between everything too. Looks good!

@true locust Cool textures and colors in this! I like the effect you added in the eyes. I feel like a bit of a levels adjustment to boost the brightness in the face a bit might be a good look. Nicely done!

@dusty fog The colors have a really nice balance in this image! The image in the glasses creates some really nice color contrast too. Great look to this design 👍

[eager crest]

#✂challenges-feedback I'm clearly not that advanced, but I did have fun playing with the neural filters and changing my background along with how old I look, my gaze, and my smile. I'm looking forward to learning more.

[wicked marsh]

Trippy! Looking forward to exploring the Neural Filters more

[still vine]

I thought the middle looked cooler flipped, so I switched that and added a little shading. The nueral filter I used was the flame filter, inverted, to create the texture of the orb

[silent ocean]

hi everyone, just joined today

[regal barn]

This photo is when I helped model for a classmate who printed out a pair of 3D printed glasses. I played around with the neural filters on the glasses, but ended up keeping the original look. I changed the background and matched the tone/lighting of the background to me (the subject) using Match Image. Attached both original and edited image.

This one I played around with the glasses, using hue/saturation and effects

[young karma]

Original with blare effect from Analog Efex Pro from NIK Collection. After this I changed glases in PSP and played with Neural Filters for Total Transformation. Really BIG FUN to find new ways to show my old selfie 🙂

So - learn something new every day!! I have no idea how long these 'neural filters' have been in PS - I only updated the program yesterday. I have to say, the skin smoothing is really rather goo. Can't say I'm sold on the style transfer - can't really see it being of use to me, but still - it looks pretty cool for a bit of fun 😃
It's going to be a bit weird though as I'm out of sync with everyone being 9 hours behing you lot. HNY peeps!

ok, here goes! Totally out of my comfort zone - hate my photo being taken with a vengence LOL! But here's an old photo of me. I hadn't come across neural filters before so that was fun! I've done two. First covered with NFs. Second NF on just the glasses but textured the rest.

@silk hatch OMG! Love that!

[uneven flume]

This was my first time doing neural filters. They look pretty fun. I'm excited for another fortnight of learning with y'all

[stray oriole]

the only thing that makes you stand out from the background is the perspective. Your photo is at a much lower perspective than the background. and also i think you could add more glow to yourself.

[gray obsidian]

This is my first time really getting to explore Photoshop. My 5y.o. daughter likes to pose in pictures for me so I put a pair of my sunglasses on her and touched up the photo a bit in lightroom and added the neural effects in photoshop. any thoughts?

[young karma]

I finally might get to finish my personal branding with this 🤩

[vague shuttle]

Hi Hi found myself playing with Matrixx theme and this is what happened...

[bleak fossil]

@rotund surge Is there any particular look or effect you're shooting for? The main thing I'd suggest for the current state it's in would be to do a curves/levles adjustment to boost the contrast and light tones in the face .

@buoyant nova Cool effect on the avatar challenge! I like the illustrated look. It could be nice to use a masked levels layer to boost the brightness a bit in the face to further separate it from the background. Nice job!

@plain sable Great effect! color and texture in the lenses makes for a nice focal point. I really like the blue to push focus on the glasses, but it might look more realistic to pull the blur back (assuming that wasn't how the original photo was) on the ground where the glasses are sitting so they have the same level of focus. Nice work!

@pliant comet Nice effect, it creates some really interesting contrast and focus in this image! Really cool texture.

@lucid plover I like the astronomical theme you're working with, the color palettes for each planet are looking good! The fonts seem to fit well also, looking forward to seeing where you go with the upcoming challenges.

I moved some things around, added my colors, found the Animal Crossing font and populated my Samples/Images regions with reference!

[wraith estuary]

Looks awesome!

[jolly quest]

I also added my character styles and color pallets to a custom library that I can pull from while I can my other files open during future challenges!

also, please post your style guides with and explanation of what your personal series is going to be about!! Are you making illustrations? Will you be doing a photography series? Designing badges or a font? LET US KNOW!

[wraith estuary]

@jolly quest What's the trick to getting fonts into your library? I have a bunch that are activated, but wasn't sure how to get them in there...

[jolly quest]

Have the font selected with your font tool and in your library, click the + button! Then select Character Styles

it will add your selected font to your library and then you can group them all together!

[wraith estuary]

Thanks, I'll give it a go!

I'm having a lot of fun! And...definitely procrastinating other things to make this! 🤪 The sample projects are the cover art that I made for my band's songs/EP release last year. We're called Gold Anchor if you want to hear our music 😉 https://goldanchor.bandcamp.com

[bleak fossil]

@left saddle I assume you mean you're using an older version rather than the subscription? Unfortunately Neural Filters is a fairly recent addition so it would only be with the most recent versions.

@slim niche awesome!! This looks like a Plant Care app?

I’m very excited to see how it develops

[jagged falcon]

Day 2! I’m working on a PhD in Health Behavior, and I’m interested in websites/apps to increase exercise in people with disabilities, so I created a style guide for workout illustrations.

Great shot @unkempt field on your challenge #1... I like your colors and the add of "wavy" shapes... Really fresh design!

@fluid sequoia : your retouched portrait looks really good. I like how you used filters to give a nice painting effect. Looks soft and warm. Love the addition of yellowish strokes. Well done!

[hollow yarrow]

Well done! your effect on glasses looks great!.... Why don't try to apply it on your first image? It might give a good result... (Just an idea)

[bleak fossil]

@young karma Very cool! The mood board definitely has a consistent and cohesive style and aesthetic to it. Always great to see people incorporating these challenges into their personal work!

@vague shuttle Really interesting combination of colors and textures in this one. The warm and cool color contrast really adds a lot of interest. The high contrast of the values along with the colors and textures in this image give it a really bold, interesting look. Nice job!

@blissful wolf Very cool! The backlighting with the texture in the glasses is a cool look. I feel like the whole image could use a bit of a curves/levels adjustment to add a bit more contrast in the face. Nice job!

@brittle drift Glad you're excited for this one! I love the bold colors and designs of these projects. They all have a nice unity to them. Really cool to see you incorporating your own stuff too!

@slim niche Ooh, very nice! I love the green and yellow tones along with the lightness of all the white space. They balance each other nicely and it gives it a really bright and upbeat feel.

@queen aspen I like the strong contrast in a lot of these images. The lighter tones and colors give it a nice balance too. The font choices seem to fit nicely 👍

@fading tartan I really like the lighting in all these images, they have a great feel to them and a nice unity between them. The color palette feels really festive too, which I like. Nice job!

@oblique sinew Super cool! I love the idea of animating these effects. The color grading you did for each image fits really well, and both designs have a nice contrast in the glasses against the rest of the image. Great idea!

[blissful wolf]

@bleak fossil , thank you very much for your feedback.... I will make the change you suggested 🙂

[nimble shard]

Gave +1 Creative Carma to @bleak fossil

[bleak fossil]

@unkempt field I love the stylization of this image, the high key color grading works really well and makes the glasses a really strong focal point. The graphic elements are a nice touch. Well done!

@foggy gull Ooh, great style to this image! It balances the focus nicely between the text at the bottom and towards the top of the face. Really changes the mood of the whole thing, nice work!

@fallow bough Looking good Ken! There's definitely a lot of contrast and business going on but you managed to balance them well with the portrait still having a nice contrast between the background. The sort of painterly/graphic looking effect adds a really interesting touch.

@dusky swallow The background in this avatar design is a really nice addition and works nicely with the design in the glasses. I really like the color contrast the glasses have too, nice work!

@formal jacinth Hah, I love it, the colors look great together and the animation is an excellent touch.

@mortal crescent Really cool idea! Great style to this image, and the blend between them creates a really interesting effect. Loving the texture too!

@unique sun Awesome, welcome in! Glad you're joining us. The background effect is really cool. I think using a levels adjustment to brighten up the portrait and add a bit more contrast might be a nice touch too. Looks good!

@young karma I really like what you did with the orbs and text in this one, really cool design! The color and contrast with the effect in the glasses makes for a nice focal point too 👍

@eternal mica Hah, loving the avatar effect! Kind of reminds me of the Human Torch with some Matrix flair to it. I really like the stylized look of the jacket too, everything has a nice stylistic balance to it. If I had any suggestion it might be to further separate the portrait from the background by tweaking the hue of the background, or even the jacket. Maybe shifting it a little more towards the green range would make the silhouette of the jacket pop more, and might be a nice way to mirror the green in the glasses. Very cool!

I am having trouble with the Neural filters from earlier this week. The style filters seem to work, but the facial/portrait ones do not.

[jolly quest]

Do you have the little toggle turned on?

[livid badger]

I was having internet issues that day and I am wondering if perhaps it did not download properly? Is there anyway to do the download over agian?

[jolly quest]

to activate them you have to do more than just clock the panel

are they ghosted out?

*click

[livid badger]

Yes I have the toggle on. The panel is active, but no change happens to the photo

[jolly quest]

hmm

let me investigate how to re download. that has happened to me too before

Ther happen rather often special if you then you have many layers, also then you try to export then have many layers, you can make smart layers to fix the problem.

Day 03 Challenge - Social Media Template Sample (oh wow that's crooked, I will revise tomorrow)

[wanton drift]

Challenge day 3 - I've been procrastinating but I'm gonna start again to challenge myself with new concept art and matte painting projects. 💪🏽

[bleak fossil]

@wanton drift Very nice collection of images, I like the dark, moody images with bursts of bold color, there's some really nice contrast going on. Nicely done!

@winter tinsel I like the graphic look of this image! The graphic background fits the style of the portrait nicely. I'm not sure if that back of the hat on the right side got cut off due to the sharp edge or not, but figured I'd mention it since the shape seems a bit odd. Nice work!

@zenith mulch Great collection of images here, you can really see how a feeling of warmth is in a lot of coffee branding which I think is reflected nicely in your color palettes. The more neutral grays really allow the warm earthy tones to pop. Looks good!

@woven wasp Hah, I love the picture for this Avatar challenge! The colors are great, and the background blur adds a really nice sense of focus. Though the blur looks a little rough around the head of the boy in the back, perhaps refining the mask with a Refine Edge Brush tool or the Refine Hair button might help a bit, or even just some careful work with a soft brush and a mask. The color in the lenses of the glasses really make for a nice focal point too!

@dusky swallow Very cool, the images really convey a strong theme with this mood board, and the color palette really pushes that bright friendly feel you often see in cartoons and animation. Nice job 👍

@normal gale Challenge 3 is looking really solid! The illustrated elements in the corners have a nice balance to them and the design is colorful but still kind of subdued. The clean center design for the text has a really nice contrast with the background. Looks good!

@celest fox Very cool, the colors of all these images definitely have a cohesive look and feel to them. I like how you balanced some of the brighter colors in the color palette with a couple more neutral tones. Nicely done!

@dusky swallow Ooh, really interesting effect with the 3D split form of the portrait! I feel like showing a bit more of the "inside" area on the bottom left section like we see in the top left might give the whole thing a bit more of a solid sense of form? Though that's a minor note and suggestion. There's a really nice contrast against the background shapes and colors too, nice work!

@dusty fog The Day 3 challenge is looking good, I like the shape placement. I wonder if it might help to minimize your color palette, oftentimes using too many colors can make the design feel a bit less cohesive. Currently there's 5-7 major colors being used, using a few less and repeating some more than once might help with more unity? Also using that magic wand tool to grab and delete/mask the white behind the cobra icon might look a bit cleaner, but then you might have to lighten the background a touch to get it to read. Just some thought of course. I really like the red border and how you faded the contrast of the palm tree graphic, nice job!

@zenith mulch Ooh, I love the contrast between the bold textured background and more refined clean look of the center design. All the colors have a really nice cohesive feel to them too. Nicely done!

@prisma stone Really cool to see you pushing this challenge with the animated elements! That can definitely be a great aspect to have for eye catching social media graphics. I like how you tried out a couple different color schemes too, very nice!

@livid badger Glad to hear it! Really nice texture in this, it gives a great contrast and focus to the glasses. I feel like the portrait could be brightened up a bit with a levels adjustment to pop the face out and separate it more from the value of the background. Looks cool!

[brittle drift]

Well, I guess I'm just rolling with it. My selfie had butterfly wings and then I made a card for my friend's birthday with butterfly wings. And I do like unicorns, flowers, hearts, babies, puppies and colors...so I might as well go for it 🤣 Also, I have to say that I used almost every color and font from my style guide!? That was really cool and helpful for faster execution. Thanks for the idea! I love the daily challenges @jolly quest 💜

[nimble shard]

Gave +1 Creative Carma to @jolly quest

[bleak fossil]

@coarse egret That's great though, trying new things and stepping out of comfort zones is always a slower process the first time, glad to hear you feel like you learned from it! I feel like you got a good color palette out of this, some really nice neutral tones and more accented colors make for a nice balance. Nice work!

@unkempt cape Looking good! The clean center design contrasts the pictures nicely, while the darker background makes for more of a subdued neutral tone while still adding some nice interest. I really like how you made the design reflect the color scheme from the uniform, nicely done!

@spring estuary The day 3 challenge is looking good! The circles make for a nice added element of interest while the simple white background really likes the colors from the painting pop. Very nice!

@wanton drift That's great to hear! Really nice to see both compositing and more graphic style design put together here. The white title and text contrasts nicely against the darker background. Looking good!

@pulsar kettle You are indeed posting it in the right place! And jpegs are perfect for sharing here on the Discord and social media, no need to upload the PSD. Discord has a 8mb limit anyway. I really like your color scheme and how you balanced the shapes and color in this template. The text in the bottom left does a nice job to balance out the top and right areas. Nicely done!

@hollow yarrow This looks great, really nice balance between the grey and yellow tones. The debossed effect on the text has a really nice sense of dimension too, nice work!

@wary swan Really cool, there's definitely a consistent style of bold colors and shapes in a lot of these images and the color palette reflects that nicely. Great to see all your designs together too!

@brittle drift Hah, definitely embrace and go for it, might as well have fun with it. I really like the compositional balance in this between the graphic shapes and photo elements! The colors have a nice unity as well, very nice work!

Again a little behind but here is day 3 challenge! (again all this is brand new to me!)

[brittle drift]

Can anyone help me with this? I didn't know about the frame tool until today and I was trying to make a frame on my social media project yesterday AFTER everything was laid out on my page. It was tricky!? And It wasn't letting me center it very well. When I linked all of my objects so I could move them to try and center them it helped but when I used the move tool and clicked an alignment button, all of my pieces were thrown to the center, rather than the whole middle frame (with all of my layers in their correct placement) centering over my created frame. Make sense? So basically, how to I center complex layers that I want in a certain formation over a layer below? Thanks in advance! @bleak fossil

[nimble shard]

Gave +1 Creative Carma to @bleak fossil

[pulsar kettle]

Day #4 Challenge! I did a minimal "scanned polaroid" vibe, and i changed the canvas settings so that it would fit instagram stories!

here's the blank version 😄

[pulsar kettle]

not 100% sure what you're asking, so here's my best: A) press the V for the select tool, and then the button at the top with the three dots, click that and click "align to canvas". then you can automatically center your layers to the canvas. B) if you're trying to align something within another frame/layer, then do the right click >> create clipping mask. Does that answer your bestion?

[plain sable]

Challenge #2 - a project I'm currently working on...

[simple idol]

Hello friends. Here is Day 4

[brittle drift]

I appreciate you trying to help!! 🙏 I did try A, which is what aligned all of my objects on the first layer, which is not what I wanted to do. I wanted all objects to stay in their places, on the layer, and I linked them all, then I tried to center the layer over another layer. Make sense? When I tried A it centered the objects as well instead of the layer they were on🤪 When I do B, it doesn't center it either... It's hard to ask this question and it's so nice of you to try and help me! Thank you!

Day 4, Puzzle pattern background

[bleak fossil]

@coarse egret I'm glad to hear you're excited for these! Workflows and processes are definitely a lot slower the first few times around, but luckily once you start getting a good feel for the tool and methods it speeds up a lot, especially with hotkeys. This looks good, I really like the pattern you made for the frame and background. I feel like the title text could be a bit bigger and bolder with a more contrasting value or color for a bit more pop overall. Looks good!

@zenith mulch This fits really nicely thematically with your last design. I really like the way you frame the products with the circle shapes. Nice balance of color too!

@normal gale These are great! I really like the create framing for each one and the touch of depth you added with overlapping shapes. The way you handled the color schemes for each one is working really well too!

@simple idol Really nice layering of images for the Day 4 challenge. The color schemes are working nicely to have some good harmony and without overpowering the center image and design. Nice job!

@plain sable Really cool, I like the collection of design you got here, really interested to see what you do with it and how the trailer and bird imagery fit together. Colors look good too!

@pulsar kettle Nice job, always good to have some Instagram Story templates, something I should consider more with how often I use them, hah. The colors and contrast of the design look good!

@young karma Some really nice textures going on in this design! I like the way you masked out the couch, rug and person jumping over the graphic shapes and textures in the background. Though I wonder if making those elements a bit bigger might make that center area a bit more visually dominant as a more prominent focal point? Nice work!

Decided to combine the Photoshop and Illustrator challenges this week, made a social media post for my Day 1 AI Challenge for Day 4 PS

[uneven flume]

I used a photo of one of my paintings as the subject. I lowered the texture using camera raw filter to make it look like a cartoon drawing. This is a mash-up of Neopets and the video game Among Us. I used elements and inspiration from both words to create this look. This was my first time using patterns and I really enjoyed the outcome.

[plain sable]

Thanks @bleak fossil... For the last few weeks I've been working on sticker ideas so decided to use what I've got going so far with the art board challenge. So what I have so far is three catagories, hummingbirds, owls, & campers. Each will have there own direction I think 🙂

Still on day 4, getting caught up. Added a pattern and played with the frame tool.

[fierce island]

Glitzy

[misty heron]

@neon crystal I love the way the way the picture is popping out of the Polaroid. I have two suggestions on the left side Polaroid put the water that is on top of the white frame behind the frame. It would make it seem more like the surfer and the wave is emerging form the Polaroid itself. The other suggestion I have is the hand at the top of the photo is drawing the viewer away form the main part of the photo. Mostly because of the color compared to the water behind it and that it doesn't lead to a part of the body. Thus it just looks like a floating hand. Hopefully that helped some.😁

[dusty fog]

Believe it or not, this started out as a happy kitty😬 . Somewhere along the line I went dark🤔. I drew free hand, used special effect brushes, and added backgrounds. I'm definitely learning as we're going along.

Here it is my first ilustration ever.... It has been really fun and I would like to continue doing them although my day starts with something different, The Poster of the Day... Anyway, at least once a week... BUT I missed the instructions to outline it... I kind of figured out something but it took not the 3 layers that I could see in Val´s file but many more. I would appreciate that you explain how to do the drawings... Thank you @jolly quest

[brittle drift]

Cool animation!

[bleak fossil]

@neon crystal Really nice layering with this Day 4 challenge! It adds some nice depth. I also really like the way the surfer breaks the frame of the polaroid which even further pushes the depth. Nicely done!

@young karma You really pushed the texture in this one which looks good! The simplified color palette really helps everything read nicely against each other too. Angel seems to have a typo with an extra "e" in it, unless that was intentional and it's part of a name. Nice job!

[normal gale]

Challenge #5 - My favourite thing to do right now is turning my wildlife photos into water colour images (Edited /Original)

[bleak fossil]

@somber token I really like the font and the way you handled the type on this Day 5 challenge! The blue and brown color scheme is working together nicely. My only thought is I feel like the "I'm still standing" text could contrast a bit more clearly against the background for a stronger read. I wonder if tweaking the value could help, or even adding a subtle drop shadow? Nice work!

@tropic knoll Really cool idea for the Day 1 challenge! I like how it sort of gradually turns the spiderweb into a stained glass effect. Nice job with all the different colors and textures 👍

@lucid plover Really cool sort of surreal effect with this Day 5 poster image! I like how you seem to have added an occlusion shadow under the "tunnel" of the sky on the street, but then as you look up it kind of visually transforms into the night sky. The glowing ring makes for a really interesting effect too! Could be kind of cool to see that reflected a bit in the pavement if you wanted to push it even further.

@plain sable Really interesting embossed effects you have in the #4 challenge. Great job with the framing and designs around the border, there's a nice balance to the overall composition!

@wraith estuary Really cool! The color contrast between the portrait and the background newspaper works really well, and the drop shadow under the photo adds a great sense of depth. Did you create the portrait image as well? Either way this is looking really solid!

[lucid plover]

@inner plaza There's a definitely a strong consistent theme with the vibrant, sort of psychedelic color palettes in these images. Some really interesting options within the font styles too. Definitely interested in seeing more, nice work!

@prime lake Hah, I'm really liking the style of this Broccolia design! The face looks good and it has a nice uniform level of texture and lighting on it to make everything look like it belongs together. The consistent lighting and contrast looks good!

@dusty fog Hah, that's definitely quite a transformation, but can always be fun to just see where it goes. I like the texture you got going in the background and the creature. Nice job!

@pliant comet The colored gradient of the text really pops against the more neutral gray background. I like the flair of the lines on the title text 👍

@brittle drift Really creative and interesting use of these colors and patterns! There's enough contrast between the patterns to clearly define the figures against the background which works nicely. The bright sunset-like colors seem to work well thematically for this design too.

@mellow linden Ooh, that sounds like a great project! There's definitely a look nailed down with these illustration examples, and those fonts seem like they would work nicely with the look and feel of them. Looking forward to seeing more!

@candid chasm Really nice job with the sort of retro style design! The texture adds a lot of interest and character to the image. The photo contrasts nicely with the background colors too. 👍

Hello friends. I'm equal parts terrified and proud to share my girl, Juniper Blue with you. She is my first attempt at illustrating a human and she is all mine. She's not perfect, but who is. I will keep expanding on her as I go. Calling all illustrators for suggestions and advise. Thank you! 🙂 I cannot draw at all, so bare with me.

Looks are in the first attempt at it. Keep working and improving....there is no end to creativity.

[bleak fossil]

@vagrant rapids That's great to hear! Always good to try new techniques and methods. I really like the texture you got on this, and the portrait contrasts nicely against the darker blue background. Also fits that island feel of ACNH nicely too. Nice job!

@plain sable Really interesting textures for Challenge 6! I like how it kind of looks like light is peaking through it a bit. Really cool color scheme throughout the banner too!

@plain sable Very nice work on the hummingbird image as well! Since the bird and the background have such similar colors it could be interesting to see how the background looks slightly blurred to mimic the depth of field effect of the reference images. Just a thought. Well done!

[rose salmon]

#✂challenges-feedback Social Media Post. Though a little late, but better late than never. Expert feedback appreciated. 😀

[bleak fossil]

@spring estuary I really like the balance you got with the colors in this! That and there's a nice balance between the textured and non textured areas which works really well. This is really just personal preference but I feel like it might look good to give the social media icons a bit more space between each other, they seem a bit crowded. Very nice work!

@neon crystal Really nice effects to these! Great textures in both of them, and I really like the depth the layering on the "2" gives it. Nicely done!

@prime lake Looking good! Your portrait and banner have a really nice consistency to them and fit together well. The border on the banner and the overall stylization of the portrait turned out great!

[normal gale]

@buoyant nova Nice color contrast in your banner! The clean bold shapes of the backing behind the camera and the text work nicely on the more textured background. Very nice!

@tardy talon Cool style to this one! I like what you did with the background. I wonder if color picking the dark area on the left side for the social media icons instead of using full black might help give the whole thing a bit more of a unified feel. Nice work!

[keen tangle]

Im so happy with my stylish banner, i love that I create it lol

[bleak fossil]

@vagrant rapids Really cool texture on this one! Solid color scheme too, it works well, and the bits of green add some nice contrast and interest. I feel like the text and background could be separated a bit more in terms of value or hue to give it a slightly cleaner read, but it's looking solid!

@pliant comet Really cool effect with the colors within the looping shape! The white clean text contrasts nicely against the more colorful background as well. Looking good!

@dusky swallow Really love the color scheme and texture! Everything fits together very nicely and the text has a really clean read against the background. I feel like perhaps the whole design might benefit from a bit more contrast overall with a levels or curves adjustment to give it a bit more pop. Looks great!

@coarse egret Hah, sometimes just experimenting can be a fun learning experience. The gradient is looking really nice along with the texture, and the photos all have a nice cohesive look to them within this design. 👍

@modern jay I always love a good cat design, hah. Very nice work on the frame, the design elements do a good job of balancing out the design. I think the textured brush strokes against the blue background adds some nice personality, though I wonder if giving the top text a slight drop shadow might help it read a big more strongly against the textured color behind it? Looking good!

@queen aspen That image works great for this banner. Really nice color contrast with the text too!

@dusky wave Nice effect with the background texture on this banner design! The stroke around the text looks good and the subtle embossed look adds a nice sense of dimension. Nice job!

@raw coyote Nice work on these banner images! I really like the background for the YouTuber banner, it has an interesting design while still keeping the focus on the text and logo. Looking good!

@lucid plover Very nice Fery! I like the color and texture of the background. I think the visual balance of the 2nd revision looks best, nice job!

Challenge #3 - Social Media Template: Here's the basic draft... next up is refining with the Edit a Template challenge (I had skipped these two, trying to catch up).

[bleak fossil]

@mortal crescent I like the illustrated horses in the social media templates! The darker horse especially has some nice shading/form to it. The second design has some really interesting texture and colors, nice work with the background pattern as well!

@celest fox Really cool style between the colorful background gradient and the photo negative effect on the hand. I like the touch of blue/green in the hand too. My only suggestion would be the masking on the flower could use a little cleaning up. I often have luck with the magic wand for big shapes and the Refine Edge Brush tool when using the quick selection tool for the smaller stuff and clean/natural edges. Nice work!

@analog barn Ooh, really cool pattern for the background of this banner. The color gradient it creates works really well too. The text color creates some nice contrast as well, nice work!

@lucid plover These photos work nicely against the dark background! The flipped page effect on the top left image looks good and adds some nice depth.

@dusty fog The banner is looking really solid! I like the wire frame background, it adds some interest but still subdued to let the title pop. I feel like it might add a nice cohesive feel to make the bottom black text the same yellow of the title instead. Looking good!

@candid chasm Great style and colors to this! I love the watercolor effect and the title has some really nice bold contrast against the background. The textured text looks great too!

@prisma stone Really cool, the texture and colors tie these all together really nicely! I love the font choices for the title text as well. Though I wonder if an off-white sort of tan color might work a little better than total white for the background? The white seems a touch harsh. Really nice design!

@neon crystal This looks great! The color and texture works really well and has a great balance in this design. I also love the illustrated element of the character on the right, and the color really makes it fit together nicely too. Nicely done!

@blissful wolf I like the playful look and feel to this design for Day 4! The background pattern is working really well and I like the balance of the text and graphic shapes. Nice job!

@queen aspen This came out very well! I really like the balance of the top and bottom framing along with the textured strip near the top, it adds a lot of interest to the design. Nice work!

@brittle drift The banner is looking good! I like the sort of watercolor look to the colorful background gradient, and the colorful text still contrasts very nicely with it. 👍

@glacial minnow I love the light look and feel of this Day 3 design! There's a really nice balance of the lighter color of the background with the colorful textured area. The colorful area has a really nice level of value and saturation as to not be overwhelming on contrasting and still give some nice focus to the frame in the center. Looks great!

@fluid sequoia Really great and interesting blend between the different photos in this banner image! I like how the colors of the center and right image sort of blend into each other. The orange in the text also does a nice job of tying the color scheme together. Nice work!

@inner plaza Really cool photo for this challenge #3! The graphic shapes look good and add some nice depth with how you overlapped them. Nice job!

Day 7 Case Study Design

[misty heron]

Finally had enough time to work on doing the challenges. Here is my day one I didn't think any of the Neutral filters went well with the image. So I tried to put a different spin on the reflection. Criticism is welcome and appreciated.

[prisma stone]

Thank you @bleak fossil ! Completely agree with you on the white background. I may have missed this in the lesson but that's just the space between artboards. How do you change the color when saving as jpeg?

DCC-7 Case Study.

[hollow yarrow]

@neon crystal : Nice banner! I like colors and splatter texture. Main infos are well placed to be visible on any display configuration. Love the typefaces and particularly your scribbled avatar. Great shot!

[sonic saddle]

I did very simple banner with a brush, a couple of colours and blending modes, the second banner has camera raw filter applied on top... hopefully i will get the rest of the challenges done soon 😅

[candid chasm]

Yesterday challenge 🙂 ( I need to work on it still)

a little late but here is my case study

[pseudo fog]

Struggled with the concept or social media thing so decided to use the project to invite friends to an imaginary party to celebrate my 60th which was a non event due to covid ! Im chuffed as I even made the balloons from scratch. The photo I did on the day of my birthday at the start of a selfie project - my at 60, which came about due to some shocking attempts at conventional selfies . Feedback welcome but be kind this is all very new!

DCC Day 8,Animated Title

the banding always appear in GIF file,but in video file,there is no banding

Thanks for the feedback. Working on the Edit challenge now and planning to add some Glow and Shadow effects to the shapes for extra depth.

@lucid plover : yes GIF+color gradient always give bandind... because of 256 colors limit. Animated gif works better with designs using limited # of different colors.
Anyway your banner looks great!

[glacial minnow]

I think your balloons look excellent. Happy belated 60th

[wooden bloom]

Day 6 Create a Banner.

Day 4 Social Media Template This took me a while to master but I enjoy making different shapes. I decided to stick to learning the basic techniques for this challenge. I know I will sort out some pictures later.

@bleak fossil Sam, I have been involved in a work project and unable to watch the live streams for this DCC. I just tried watching session 3 and session 4. Both returned error messages. Is there a problem with the video files?

[queen aspen]

Here is my work. The fancy font is KR Drink UP! And again it is my attempt to create something with Mark Heaps (PS VS II).

@bleak fossil I did. I'll try again tomorrow

[bleak fossil]

@eternal mica Very odd. My go-to solutions would be:

1. Closing the browser and restarting it completely
2. Trying another browser
3. Rebooting my computer
   You'll have to let me know if you get it working tomorrow 👍

[eternal mica]

@bleak fossil I was asking to confirm it's just me. I'll work on it.

[bleak fossil]

@prime lake Nicely done! The dancing title text is an excellent touch to give this a playful feel. The uniform color scheme and background texture works nicely to tie everything together. Looks great!

@prisma stone Great idea for this animation! I especially love the last bit of the animation with the gradual growth. The grass texture at the bottom is a really nice touch to add some interest.

@pulsar kettle I like the combination of the type style text along with the signature. The background grain texture adds a nice touch of interest too. Looks good!

@plain sable Really cool to see you use the hummingbird design for this animation! I like the texture you used for the background as well as the leaves, it ties all the assets together nicely.

@queen aspen The coloration and lighting of all the images and assets you used seem to work really nicely together! Nice work with the soft drop shadow of the objects on the table, and the animation makes for a cool effect too!

@neon crystal Day 7 is looking good! The graphic elements at the top and bottom and near the title fit together nicely and have a good visual balance to them. Really cool to see you use this with your own photos too!

@wooden bloom Nice job with the Day 4 challenge! The frame looks good and I like the background pattern you created. It's really cool how something as simple as the stitching pattern gives it the feeling of a circus style tent. Very cool!

@mortal crescent Nice work on Challenge 5, I really like the textured fur looking brush you used for the horse! The background texture is working well too and has a nice contrast. This is really just personal preference, but everything looks a bit too saturated and intense, specifically the green of the background, I think if you toned down the saturation of the background it might help balance it all out. That and a white highlight on the eye might be a nice touch. Very nice job!

@lucid plover Great work on the animation, I love the typed style you got with this! The speed of the animation is well done too, the pauses give it a realistic feel. I like the strong contrast of the whole thing too 👍

@pseudo fog Very cool Mandy! I think creating a fictional project for designs is a great way to find some inspiring direction when you're unsure what to do. The balloons turned out great, the gradient and highlights work really well and give the whole thing a fun, illustrated feel. Nice job with all the graphic elements in this too!

[lucid plover]

thank you @bleak fossil

[nimble shard]

[bleak fossil]

@dusky wave Looking good! Nice job with the textures and graphic shapes. These are somewhat random suggestions, but I feel like the title shape at the top might look good with a thin black line bordering it to add a sort of elegant look and add more contrast. Not directly around the edge of the yellow, but just outside it so there's a small gap of white space. I also wonder if it might look good to vertically flip the very top yellow shape, and have it sit on the thick black line, to sort of mirror and "complete" the similar shape at the very bottom. Hopefully that makes sense, nice work!

@candid chasm I like the colors on this design! The sort of watercolor texture in the background is really neat, and I like how the color of the phones mirror the logo at the top. Nicely done!

[queen aspen]

Thank you, Sam. It was fun work - to realize how to create a gif from a composition like this.

Challenge #8

Challenge #4 - Edit a Template: Enhanced the previous challenge's template by adding a background pattern, various effects to the shapes, and a frame for the center image. Loving how the frame makes changing/moving images easy and my style guide's color themes helped me quickly change the entire look.

[pseudo fog]

Thank you, it’s fun trying the new elements even if from time to time just a wee bit frustrating.

Thanks @bleak fossil for your comments - I'd completely forgotten about using adjustments and other tools on my image. I've played around with the background.

@normal gale : Great animation! Your Behance project is looking good too. I'm sure Voodoo Val will remind us the good tag in the next stream (today). Initialy the tag was #PSDDAILYCHALLENGE then they changed it for #PSCREATIVECHALLENGE... So we will see today.😉

[misty heron]

I did day 2 of the challenge, However since mine was an simple relative college of images I decided not to put it in here. I instead decided to put my finished Daily Creative Challenge cover from day 0. My plan for these challenges is just to get back into the habit of using Photoshop and also learning new skills. I tried to reflect the immersion I am working towards feeling with digital editing. This project a lot longer than expected because Photoshop keep giving me issues. Feedback is welcome and greatly appreciated. 😁

[mortal crescent]

Another version of Challenge 5 - having fun exploring brushes and pushing myself out of my comfort zone.

[hollow yarrow]

Nice start! I think you made a mistake on the left(?) DCC and not DDC... I like the infinite loop you've made with the laptop screen👍

This challenge was so fun, I love and enjoy it, thank you @jolly quest !
I'm going to begin a serie of Animal Crossing characters illustrations, it is perfect to learn how to handle brushes, how to do an illustration, ... meanwhile it brings peace, joy, ...
After KK Slider, here is Ankha ... I can't wait to begin a new character and to see what this project is going to look like.
And thanks so much for what we learnt yesterday and today because I really have to improve the way I present a project !

I couldn't come up with a traditional social media template and post that was original. So I went with a different kind of social media that I was more familiar with, a thumbnail for a youtube video. I made a basic template on how I wanted things to lay out, then based off a madden series I was earlier today. I used a random username and a gaming logo (not a logo I made) I found on google to complete this project. Any Feedback is welcome and appreciated. 😁

[dusky swallow]

@mortal crescent I really love the gradient texture at the back, wonderful colors selection

@pulsar kettle love the case study style and colors selection 🤩

Exercise #6

[brittle drift]

I love your banner @little spoke! I wonder if you make the font dark then give it an outter glow if the words would pop more? I had to to that! Just an idea. Love it!

[ivory shoal]

I just started the challenge. Thought I would give it a go going backwards from the most recent until I catch up. I have already published to Behance, so I went with the animated banner GIF using PS timeline feature.

Day 8 - For now, without animation, trying to find out whay I cant make it work....

I like the Color scheme. The only suggestion I have is to blend the coffee beans on the corners in more to main square. I would start by playing around with slight shadows around/under the beans.

[misty heron]

This is my day 5 Challenge of Shanks from an anime I like called One Piece. I used images from Google for both Shanks and his pirate flag for tracing . I created a vector shape with an outline using the pen tool. To make the flag seem to wave I used a displacement filter. If you have tips or feedback, it is greatly appreciated. Thank you😁

DCC-8. GIF Animated Title.

[pseudo fog]

Challenge Day 6 - banner , sticking to the birthday theme.

[bleak fossil]

@pseudo fog Looking good, Mandy! The composition of the balloons works nicely with the banner image. It might be nice to give the gray stars a little color too, though I like how you're keeping them fairly neutral. Nice work!

@raw coyote Very nice work on the animation, it came out well! The texture on the text and leaf also match the style of the flower pots very nicely. Looks good!

@misty heron Good idea for the displacement filter for the flag, it looks good! I think the shapes contrast pretty well against each other, if I had any comment it might just be that the crop looks a bit tight on the left and right? Might be nice to give it a touch more breathing room, but that largely depends on the format you're going for. Nice work!

@cursive estuary This looks great! I like the color scheme and the playful looks of the design. I like how you bowed the edges of the brown inner frame a bit, but I feel like maybe you could push that a bit more, since the top seems flat, and I feel like making the effect more apparent and consistent across each edge could look good. Very nice!

@dusky wave Really cool idea for this animation! The changing figures give it a nice sense of action and movement.

[misty heron]

@long granite Looks amazing. Some feedback would be the snow in front of the door is dark with shadows. The light from beyond the doorway seems to be very white bright. These two things seem to contradict each other.

[bleak fossil]

@long granite Very cool! Excellent lighting and contrast, I really like the way the light from the door back-lights the figures. I feel like you could probably ease off the cast shadow from the doorway a touch, since the light from the moon would be cast on it a bit from that angle. Very nicely done!

@mortal crescent Really cool watercolor looking texture on the Day 7 challenge! The colors work together nicely and add some great interest. The text and line drawing colors do a nice job of unifying the design together. Looks good!

[bleak fossil]

@blissful wolf I like the simplified color scheme here, and the way the purple/pink gradient matches the flowers does a nice job of tying the design together!

@ivory shoal Hah, great idea for this challenge! The animation is looking great, very nice job, I especially like what you did with the animation within the "O" to mimic the phases of the moon. Nicely done!

@fluid wharf Very nice work with all the animated elements in this design! The animation on the photos make for a cool effect 👍

[ivory shoal]

I am creating a banner image for my Behance site, but I find the inclusion of social sites to be distracting to the image and redundant since the information is included in the bio. What are your feelings on this?

[ivory shoal]

I really dig the motion of the subject against the stationary background. Really cool effect. And the duotone plus hyper highlights add to the piece. I think I also see a warp/ripple effect and some channel moves. Good werk!
