dakotchic: Please why are you two making it look like some form of deformity? I'm left handed and very proud, we are usually the smartest of our peers i'm a living proof

yh reading that now, i see what you mean. I'm actually proud of my southpaw nature - we rock

MzMariah: That's how I was disgraced when I went for my friend's wedding. I do everything with my left hand and its not my fault.

I was eating when an elderly woman came and shouted at me saying " why you dey eat with your left hand, your mama no teach you say name right hand people dey use? so my friend came out and said aunty abeg leave her o, na so she be. all her life na left hand, her right hand just dey useless. na only support her right hand dey give her and her papa too na leftie o'. I was so embarrassed and the way this Benin women talk, chai........ I was embarrassed o, I really was

Well, this is who I am sha, I was born this way and I did not create myself.

lol eya sorry. I'm a leftie too. I eat with my left as well but eat swallow with my right though. I do pretty much every other thing with my left.
I never really had any issues explaining to people I was left handed when they brought up the issue with how I eat. Everybody just saw me as the weird kid that did things differently but i never got attacked for it...well not for being left handed anyway.

wait..so..no queen Idia?

Fablosclemzy: Frankben4real: The procedures are blank..ahm only seeing d finished product.

Turl: I'll post some photographs so u can see!

sure..post some pics here so i can work something.
Can I suggest you use a hi-res pic for best results.

frankben4real: something of this kind

I see
Thats called 'masking'. If I were to do something like that though for the skull face, I'd use some decayed skin to create a border between the face and the bones..the whole thing could use some colour correction as well to balance things as well as a high pass filter to sharpen it up. I'll post a tutorial about colour correction and sharpening in the near future. Stay tuned

As for a tutorial regarding blending. Your best bet is to look it up online and follow a few tutorials. Let me know if youre stuck on anything and I'll explain.

dridowu: @turl, pls bro, i need to compress video size of above 250mb to less than 30mb or less but must still have same quality, can u pls help about that ?

Don't know much about videos bro sorry.

Fablosclemzy: Hi Turl, Koolmoney nd everybody else...ah like it when ah see a pro...Turl nd Koolmoney, ah gat some issues I'ld lyk us to discuss but it can't be here...u culd contact me at clementabugbe@gmail.com or clementabugbe@email.com.....or u send me ur mail so I'll contact u..whichever way u choose...but pls try doin so as soon as u get dis as dey are very pressing issues...now back to d topic============ah once saw a pix of Will Smith..one side of his face was male nd d oda syd was female but it looked so real as all d parts blended nd looked alike...how do I do something like that in photoshop CS4?? How do I blend images lyk a male head to a female body nd a male head to an inanimate object..u knw, stuffs like dat...am talking of real quality blending not just merging layers cause ahv done all of dat nd its not working out for me. Nd how do I get to merge two pix's in a layer so dat I can edit it like its one?? Kelp from anywhere pls!!!

Hi
Ideally, I'd suggest you post whatever issue you have here on the thread so anyone willing to learn can pick a thing or two from looking at your problem. Only valid reason you wouldn't want to do that is if you're using your own pic which in this case you can substitue with another pic and I can then show you how to on this thread.
So here's my suggestion: pic two photos you want to blend and post them here and we can go through the process together so everyone can learn. Quote my name if anything and I'll get back at you.
Cheers

frankben4real: I have got a very short tutorial that can teach you that if you are interested add me up on whatsapp I can share them with you on whatsapp 07037110914

First off, it's not advisable to post your number on a public forum.
Secondly, the whole point of this thread is to display tutorials publicly for everyone to learn so if you have anything, please post it here.
Thanks.

lol 10 years abroad and I still get a fuzzy feeling just from saying the phrase "Up Nepa!!!"..It meant everything to me back in the day. Growing in the barracks and in a strict family meant I had to be indoors most of the time so all I did was either draw, read or sleep. Watching tv was a luxury that we could only afford when there was power..which wasn't very often. So I guess it's a part of me I don't want to let go. If I visit Naija tomorrow and they bring power, I'll still yell "up Nepa".

Have to give it to Davido..He started later than Wiz but has since surpassed him in my opinion.

SMH...we lost a lot of content on this thread man..well, we're still open for business

Olive juice too

fattbabakay: lmaoo...Go n Dieee***in baba Osho' Voice***E don pain am...u're kind of vociferous sha...anyways,I don't talk much coz I guess ma money shud...kip ranting!!!

fattbabakay: huh!obviously u're a GOON!!were u dragged in2 d thread?Dumb-head...I knw u're sufferin 4rm d agony of wastin ur MB buh re u dah poor...if dass d case,NL isn't meant ur penury strikers,go 2 SABO!!!

Can you imagine this olodo? Do you even know what 'goon' means? Pull your head out your_arse and stop posting nonsense. I don't use MB you simpleton. Ever heard of broadband? no? thought so. People should be forced to do little tests to qualify for posts on NL so we don't have to know what illiterates have going on in their sad lives.

Lastly, learn how to spell person, I can't stand a headache with this sinus.

How do people have time to come up with nonsense like this?
Get a frickin' life and think of how to make it man. Instead of jumping on google to come up with stupidity.

Rubbish thread. He hasn't dreamt of reaching M.I's space in terms of lyricism or flow. Talkless of modo.
Oga maintain with your kenke for there man.

lol see men dey form playboy. You lot need to add money to the criteria and not have it as a bonus 'cos in the real world, a girl dumb enough to fall for a playboy will most likely fall for the flashiest guy in the room.

Get your money up before you think yourself a playboy!

papylo4real: Weldone to Oga turl and other boss(es) in the house. I was about to create a new thread on having all Nairaland Graphics designer on BBM for us to learn together, share thoughts, solve problems instantly. So I want to hear people's view about this. Please drop your comment(s) here.

Have to agree with the op. I think blackberrys only market at this point are nigerians lol. The way una dey crase follow the phone is sumn else.
The tech industry has to be the most volatile with regards to popularity and value.
I remember when nintendo dominated the gaming market, see them today. Also when blackberry was everywhere. They've fallen the phuck off now.

ReLaTE: I installed cs5 three days ago bt will like to know the differences btw all the CS's and the one i wl start wt as a beginner.

The software's flexibility increases as newer releases come out but you can do - with your CS5, most of what you can do with the latest CC update as it is.

hope i helped.

vicadeade: Hello,pls does anyone know any alternative therapy to cure hepatitis B apart from using english drugs.thanks.

dafuq?

yungcheda: Yeah! Am working on some designs. But do graphic designers have promising future with d career?

Yup! there sure is. The world is going digital and things need to look pretty. Thats where you come in. Just polish your skill to a professional level and people will find you from all around the world to get things done.

Until we get have a few strong men that are willing to shed blood for the long term good of this country, things won't change. Heads need to roll literally and a more transparent platform needs to be designed and implemented.
Us black people are not moved by the sufferings of another man. That communal spirit isn't there anymore so we need to reprogram our perception of self to begin with.

If for instance, this boko haram people targeted political criminals at the top, they would have been loved by the people. A few assassinations will set things on the right path. Sound radical? of course it is. Mandela did something along those lines to raise awareness during his time.

The real government is you and I not the people at Aso-rock. The moment we all come to that realisation is the moment Nigeria can start to change for the better and frankly, I don't see that happening in Nigeria. We seem to be able to adapt to all forms of existence. An impressive trait but a deadly one.

My brother came here (to the UK) to vacay for the first time. We would walk around and from time to time, he would shake his head and say 'Naija cannot get to this level'. It sure as hell isn't the best place to be in but you can tell the contingencies that have been put in place and the system of governance is impressive to say the least.
It's sad that this is the grim reality we're forced to experience because of the greed that we've allowed to get in the way.

If I hear tomorrow that certain politicians are dropping like flies, I'll be very happy to lend support. If we can't keep these guys on their toes then nothing will change as it is.

The only good thing I can hope for from all this is the fact that bad leadership is a better teacher than good leadership so I hope someone with a sense of nationality somewhere is taking notes. We only realise ourselves when pushed to the edge. I guess we're not at that edge yet.

yungcheda: Thanks bro...I just got a grip on layer mask. It works like eraser just that u can call back what cleaned out unlike if eraser was used, its gone for good. Nice discovery!!

yup, way better than the actual eraser.
Glad I could help.

Feel free to post whatever you're working on so we can all marvel at your skill.

yungcheda: Please can someone tell me what layer mask is and its use? I have tried to understand it but can't

Hi yingcheda, the meaning of a layer mask is implied in the name.
A mask is used to hide stuff so a layer mask is used to hide stuff on a layer. so when to apply a layer mask to a layer, you can hide anything on a layer (be it an effect, pixels, vector fills, etc)

To fully understand the concept of it, you'd have to skip to a few pages back to see a tutorial I posted and you'll see how effective it is.
Also, check other sources online for more detailed and tutorials for more info.

Hope I helped.
Regards.
Osas.

Very interesting topic.
Cant stress the point about passion enough. If you don't enjoy it, you'll fall flat on your face. The passion has to be palpable to provoke interest in the ever growing competitive space.

yh..was going to write superman until I saw Dr. Manhattan..I think his powers are so unrealistic, they can't really develop a reasonable storyline around him. Someone that can be in two places at once, blow up in size and pretty much just chill out while copies of himself, which are just as smart and capable, phuck you up.

Nah..I'll scratch him off this list and just run with superman. Reason? because he's selfless as phuck.

Keziehenry: my reason of doing dat is just to let the world know dat if you can wash her kingdom with ur mouth,then nothing is wrong with washing her undies as i did.

...hmm..i guess when you put it that way it makes sense.

...the niggas grillz tho

sweetestguy: Amuneke,,meaning p€ni$ de hard/rise?

I just heard that yesterday..almost shed man tears....of all the characters to kill off

Tos87: please click and answer me....am having a difficulty installing it. 3cds, two of the three cds have same data inside. so when i want to install it says ' already in the system"..just tell what to do. plshttp://www.nairaland.com/1506196/photoshop-cs6-installation-problem

sorry mate, can't really help with physical installs as I usually just buy a licence off the website.

I know someone that lost £30k when he didn't have proof of tax at heathrow. Dude almost died from high BP lol.

Igbos are a very industrious and forward thinking people that have been known to always work their way out of tight financial situations. That being said, for some, along with the hustle spirit comes an aggressive approach to getting money. This often results in them being involved in get rich quick schemes that sometimes includes scams, fraudulent activities and creating subpar products. Can't front on their hustle though.
