:) This is my first tutorial people so dont be hating lol :)

In this tutorial i will use an effect which works well when you want to create an image of someone moving quick, i think it looks cool but i dont think this works with grundge type sigs.

step one:

get the picture you wish to use i am going to use this:

Ive put default drop shadow and used a black 1px stroke because later it makes the picture better

step two:
duplicate the layer

step three:
click the button in the left corner and pick the horizontal tool (vertical works too) and pick a point were it is most colorful and you think will look good

step four:

Right click the line that appears and select free tranform this should give you the ablity to drag you line, now you can drag your line drag it below or to the side of your image. This create's a multiple drag with different colours :D

heres what you end up with if you get your original layer and place that over the top of your dragged layer:

here is one of spiderman dragged to the right:

you can drag them diagonally, just once you have completed your drag click show bounding box then turn it (might have to erase bits after this so it looks good)

hope you like people

yours is ight the quality of the pic isnt the best maybe as your cut it yourself or ou used paint to show us your final result <_<

you did cut it yourself you can see mistakes take of the black 1 pixel stroke it looks better in this case

psycho's megaman one is best so far
