Title: Chordia's Graphic Shop!
Description: It doesn't really need its own forum...

Hey all, since I'm working my way on getting back to bugging you all with my long posts that take forever to do xD I figured I'd extend my hand at graphic help and what-not. I'm no pro, but I can do a few simple sets (simple meaning no skin altering stuff like Cess >.< that's freaking hard xDD)

Examples of my work:

Sets:

Banners and such:

Just a warning, however, sometimes my graphics are pretty hit and miss >.< so if you really don't like what I made, please tell me xD It not only helps me get better, but it means you'll get a better graphics set!

CODE
[b]Character Name:[/b]
[b]Celebrity Claim:[/b]
[b]What you want:[/b] Icon, set of three larger icons, set (siggie banner thing and icon)
[b]Text:[/b] The text you want either on the banner or on the icon
[b]Anything specific:[/b] Colors?  Themes?  Pics of the celeb without facial hair?  etc.

Declan Galbraith!! Avatar and sig plzzzz and could ya turn his hair white? =D

Marie D'Ancanto - July 17, 2008 03:33 AM (GMT)
Yeah, Chordie, turn his hair white! I tried it in my program and my program doesn't allow for turning stuff that dark to white. It ended up lookin' goofy.

Julian_Keller - July 17, 2008 05:02 AM (GMT)
I'm having the same issue xDD I'll keep working on it for you though ^_^ I'm sure I'll come up with something

Cessily Kincaid - July 17, 2008 05:13 AM (GMT)
Y'know...I just thought of something...

Declan looks an awful lot like Zack Efron...and I can get Zack's hair to change to white and have it look alright...

Just a thought.

Julian_Keller - July 17, 2008 05:19 AM (GMT)
Y'know... that might work...we could just paste Zack's hair onto Declan's body! xDD

The closest I've managed to get is this:

I could probably tweak it a little more to get it to look more natural... but meh >.< his hair is soooo dark

EDIT: At the moment, this is the set I managed to pull together. If you want his hair looking any different, just hollar... otherwise... I'll probably fiddle around with this some more and come up with some other approach to change his hair color xD In the meantime, I hope you enjoy!

Hmm.. Zack Efron does seem to have more of a Tommy-ish demeanor. o_O I think Ima go with him. and Chord you've gotten way farther than I have when going for the white hair thing. x_x But I think it's near impossible to get "natural" looking white hair.

.. And thinking about it could always go for that super light blonde look that James Marsters (Pietro) pulls off. o_O

Cessily Kincaid - July 17, 2008 02:05 PM (GMT)
That's a nice graphics set, Chord. I applaud you, that hair is a pain in the rear.

Thought I'd put up my manip of Zack Efron, just so you could see what kind of extra wiggle room you have with that slight shade lighter hair.

Zack it is! o_O I like that, but something about it seems just a lil off..

Julian_Keller - July 21, 2008 05:48 AM (GMT)
Yeah xD I suck at coloring stuff *le sigh* blending pics Like Jay Jay's and Julian's I can, do. Turning really dark hair white? Not so much.

John Allerdyce - July 21, 2008 06:44 PM (GMT)
It totally needs its own forum. Can I request an avatar? I like the banner I have right now... but the av really isn't John. Not sure why. Maybe he looks too dark? Too old? Too... scruffy? :lol: Dunno, but if you have time, mind taking a shot at making an avatar? Thanks!!

Evangeline Whedon - July 23, 2008 03:15 PM (GMT)
Hey figured I post this here rather than in the other thread for graphics. If anybody wants to take a shot at this and has the time they will be awesome.




Character Name:Evangeline Whedon
Celebrity Claim:Milla Jovovich
What you want: Icon and siggie if its not too much
Anything specific:The darker her hair the better but if there are no pics of her like that then don't worry. Its not like Tommy or Pietro where the wrong hair color actually makes a diffrence.

I'm still working on snatching some dragon pics for the sig, but I made that a while ago, figuring you needed something.

Mark Sheppard - July 24, 2008 05:11 AM (GMT)
MAM that is awesome

Julian_Keller - July 24, 2008 09:40 PM (GMT)
I'll get started on those today for you guys ^__^

EDIT:

Here's the sig for Evangeline, hope its what you were kind of looking for ^^;

Since MAM made you an avatar, I held back on mine, but if you want one to match this sig, merely ask. Personally, I think MAM's kicks my avatar making butt xDD

I made two different version totally stole the border xD one with the noise and one without, because I think it looks better without, but the sig has a lot of noise. Either way, I tried to make it fit with the sig as much as I could >.< if you'd like any changes, just go ahead and ask xD

Cessily Kincaid - July 25, 2008 03:35 AM (GMT)
I tried my hand at Vange sigs as well. So you have options a-plenty.

LOL! I was totally looking at Eragon dragons too xD And then I realized my siggie was turning out too clean to use a dragon dragon >.<

Nice sigs MAM~

Cessily Kincaid - July 25, 2008 03:45 AM (GMT)
Thanks Chord. I like yours too, it is very nice and clean. None of my stuff ends up that clean.

And now that I've done that...I'll stay out of your graphics thread. I only wanted to give a sig a shot since I'd already put up the avatar. And photo-manips make me happy.

Mark Sheppard - July 25, 2008 03:56 AM (GMT)
OMG They all are AWESOME!!!!
Ummm.........

'm gonna have to go with what I think is MAM's second(my compy won't load picture today so I made Porky send them to me)

It looks more Emo-y and sad. Which I feel fits.

Thanks to both of you though.

Julian_Keller - July 25, 2008 04:01 AM (GMT)
No problemo, my sigs tend to be more clean and simple than emo and sad xD Glad you found something you like though~

Character Name: Ororo Munroe
Celebrity Claim: Halle Berry
What you want: Set please!
Text: I trust you to think of something witty my dear.
Anything specific: I would think earthy tones and the such. You can feel free to use pics of her from the X-men movies if you want or if you want to you can use just regular pictures of Miss Berry. Can't wait to see what you come up with.
