One Photoshop trick coming up!

[disappearicons]

I posted this over at immune the other day, and though you guys would appreciate this here. So.....here's a neat effect some crazy bastard and I came up with like four years ago. It really makes [almost] any photo awesome without doing much altering:

001. Duplicate the original layer
          002. Set the new layer to "Overlay"
          003

Oooh, that's pretty funky :)

I'll have to try it out sometime.

Thanks :)

Ok, your icon is fabulous, and I must steal.....did you make that and is it take-able?

[_mysteria_]

Aww, thank you :)

I was going to make it shareable, but it inspired me to make a new LJ layout.

But as it's you, and you've shared so many wonderful graphics, how can I refuse? ;)

If you like, take. I'm flattered you like it :)

i do that all the time. still a good effect, though. =)

I accidentaly discovered that effect last week XD
I'm disapponted now :(. Whatever I discover it has been discovered before me...

I use the overlay technique a lot, but I still haven't figured out how to desaturate a layer >.<

Help please?

it's this easy:
click on the layer. then press SHIFT+CTRL+U

Either do that or: Image > Adjustmetns > Desaturate!
