Back on the old forums, we had a long-running thread where people could post up requests for photoshops of pictures to make them into art for their games. That thread lasted a good long time, and its inheritor ran for nearly four straight years. Now that the forums are moving, it's time to start off with a new thread, full of new photoshop goodness! Post up your pics and what you would like done to them, and our little crew of photo manipulators will do our best to get to it in due time. Most of us are pretty busy, so don't expect fast turnaround, but we usually get around to it.
Suggestions: If you want a quality picture, you need to supply a quality base image. Don't submit pics with a ton of crazy stuff in the background or a lot of text covering the main image; that's basically impossible to work with. The higher the quality of the base image, the easier it will be to work with; make sure you're submitting the highest quality version of the image you can. (Google Image Search and Reverse Image Search are your friends here.) Don't ask us to colorize a black and white image; that's an entirely different skill set, and one that a lot of us don't have. We might be able to, if it's already shaded, but be prepared for us to say that we can't manage it. Be as specific as you can with what you want; if you just say "Exaltify this!" it's almost useless.
Samples: Here a few examples of my work from the old forums:
If some of the other artists would like to upload some examples of their photoshop work too, that would be nice. =)
Image Limit and Spoilers: Apparently the maximum number of images you can put in one post on the new forums is four. Keep it in mind to avoid frustration. On the old thread, we spoilered images to avoid breaking the forums, but images apparently resize on the new forums; also, I can't find a way to put in a spoiler block (the usual codes don't work). If a moderator thinks we need to spoiler images for functionality, please let us know (and tell us how with this new interface!).
Otherwise, welcome to the new thread, and have fun!
