Mood theme's.

[x__leah__x]

So, I want to make my own Simple Plan mood theme. But, I have a coloring question - what kind of coloring should I use on all the pictures I do for the theme? Like what *looks* good.

I know i could use *any* tutorial here, but I want your guys' help 'cause if I finish it, I may let others use it. :D

So, links & opions, thanks!

If this is a mood theme that you're going to use, then just work with the images until you like the way they look. Experiment. Try different coloring styles on each image. If you set a color layer to burn, and the subject of the image looks like an Oompa Loompa, then undo or try a different layer style. Or, don't color the image at all (not every image needs a blue exclusion layer) and just work on making the base image look amazing. If you want other people to use it, then chances are they'll like the same coloring you do. The people in this community could give you a hundred different coloring styles, but in the end you're the one making and using the mood theme. Just work with the image until you like it :)

a basic coloring that i like that brightens a picture is adding a dark blue exclusion layer, then duplicate the original layer, drag it to the top, desaturate and set to softlight. its one of the most basic things i use and i use it icons quite a bit.
