• TUTORIAL: Adding Buttons To Your Profile Page

  I recently had several requests for instructions on how to add buttons like the ones in my profile. Rather than send individual bubblemail messages, I’m posting it in my journal in case someone else would like to add buttons to their RB profile. BUTTON INSTRUCTIONS Tip: print out this page and put it beside the computer before you start. You can make your own buttons or you can use a site called ButtonGenerator. If you decide to use this site and not to pay for a membership, you will need to add a link back to the site. I made all of mine 125X26 to give you some idea of the size of the ones on my page. This size allowed 3 buttons side-by-side. Make all your buttons and then save them in a folder on your computer. Then you will need to upload each button to your RB image gallery and use the “Hide” feature so that no one sees them but you. Once you have them uploaded you will need to right-click on each one to get the url address html code in the properties box. Example: http://images-0.redbubble.net/img/art/size:ularge/view:main/1407403-1-autumn-button.jpg Then go to “Edit Your Profile” to copy the image html code AND the tag html code – it will look like this (without the spaces): ! http://images-0.redbubble.net/img/art/size:ularge/view:main/1407403-1-autumn-button.jpg ! : http://www.redbubble.com/people/patmonty/art/everything/tags/autumn [REMEMBER NO SPACES. I had to add spaces so you could see the html code. If I had not added spaces, the button would have appeared in the journal instead of the code.] The last word in the html code is the “tag” word. In the example above it is autumn. You will need to put one space between each set of button html code. If you have a lot of buttons the language is long and wraps around forever. But with one space between each button html code, the buttons will sit next to other and then wrap to the next line. Now you will need to add the tag word to each of your images that will correspond to the buttons. Happy Button Making!

• Red Bubble Tip #1: Adding a Portfolio Banner to Your Red Bubble Profile Page

  I am not sure if someone else has already posted a tutorial on this, so I thought I would have a go at it. I read this very insightful tutorial by admin Xavier Shay about posting a Portfolio into an email signature. I was toying around with the code, and discovered how to place the code on your Red Bubble profile page. I have noticed that some people have already figured out how to do this, so there are some who probably already know about this. I, however, did not know this until I toyed around with it and, so, I am sure that there others out there who might find this of value. I would first recommend that you read Xavier’s post and the comments that follow, as they were a very big help in learning how to do this. (1) The first step is to use the image location link that was provided in the forum tutorial: http://redbubble.com/people/username/recipe:banner;back_color:ffffff;orientation:horizontal;limit:4/username_banner.jpg (2) Next, paste this image location link somewhere in your “About Me” section between exclamation points, like this: !place the image location link here! (3) Now, notice the bold areas of the above link. You must insert your Red Bubble username (not your real name) where it says username (there are two spots in the link where you have to do this). So, my link would like like this: http://redbubble.com/people/bchrisdesigns/recipe:banner;back_color:ffffff;limit:4_;orientation:_horizontal;/bchrsidesigns_banner.jpg Can you tell where I have replaced “username” with “bchrisdesigns”? (4) Finally, if you take note of the italicized text in the image location link directly above, you will notice that the values of “back_color”, “orientation”, and “limit” are all italicized. These values are yours to control and manipulate to get the proper look and feel that you would like on your page. back_color: is the image’s background color, which you can change to any color using the standard HTML Color Code. Note, that you do not need to use the # (pound sign) that normally precedes HTML Color Code (i.e. ”#ffffff”) – you just need the code (i.e. “fffffff”). #ffffff is the color code for “white”. limit: is the number of thumbnails that will be seen in your banner. I have experimented with this in my blog and have discovered that the most you can set it to is “6”. On your Red Bubble profile page, the most you can really set it to is “4” for horizontal images and “6” for vertical images orientation: is the way your portfolio will be seen. This can be changed to either “horizontal” (from side-to-side) or “vertical” (up and down). And, that is it. Once you have decided how you want your image to look, just save your profile and presto! You’ve got a nifty banner on your page. BUT… If you would like your banner to be click-able, you need to add a link code to it, such as: ”! image location here ! ( link description here )” : hyperlink here You can copy and paste this example into your “About Me” section and then fill in the blanks with your information (make sure you delete any and all spaces). In the above example, replace the underlined text as follows: image location here: replace this text with the finalized image location link that we worked on in steps 1-4 above. link description here: replace this text with a description of what you would like people to see when they hover over your banner. (Mine says “View My Red Bubble Gallery”.) hyperlink here: replace this text with the actual hyperlink that you would like your image to link to (i.e. a specific Red Bubble section or your profile page; you can also link to your blog/website/etc.). Once you replace the text as indicated, simply save your edited profile and check out your radical awesomeness! Here is an example of mine (with hyperlink): I hope this helps everyone! Cheers! P.S. I am adding this to all of my groups in the hopes that everyone can use this tool to display their beautiful works of art (from Atmospheric Optics to Zoophoria). Much love!

  I have started work on my new bubblesite as most people are doing the same I thought it maybe a good idea to put a quick link to your bubblesite on your profile for people to easily follow. The steps are pretty simple: Navigate to edit your profile and in the About you box below any writing you have done enter the following code (star) which makes the text bold / then the words Quick link to my Bubblesite / space / then a “(speech mark) / then the word here / followed by a *(star) and a “(speech mark) then a :(colon) next the tricky bit navigate to your bubblesite and copy the address from the address bar at the top of your browser eg mine is http://spottydog06.redbubble.com/ and insert after the :(colon) without a space! Then click Save Changes please note do not enter spaces where I have not told you to! It should now look like this…..... Quick link to my Bubblesite here* Oh if you have followed the steps above and it works, take a look at my site and leave feedback on anything you like. Hope this has helped. Paul ps I hope the code I entered dosnt totally screw up this journal entry lol ok the star didnt quite work, glad I wrote the word star :) ps the star symbol is on your mumber pad and used as the multiply symbol ;)

  I recommend printing these instructions so that you have them handy for reference. It is easier than switching back and forth to this screen. Click on “my bubble”. Click on “art” (on the 2nd row of links – not the top one). You should see “My Art” page – this is the page where you can edit your pics. Choose your photo and click on “Show Public View”. Click “Buy/Preview”. (Note: You won’t actually be buying, only previewing) Choose the card or frame of your choice. Make your mat or color selections, etc. When the image of your framed photo appears on the screen, right click on the photo. A pop-up box will appear. Right click on the photo. In the pop-up box, click on “properties” (at the bottom). The “Properties” box will pop up – highlight the address (URL) . {Click & drag will highlight the entire address} IMPORTANT: Be sure to highlight the entire address – only two lines will be visible, but if a third line of the address hidden, be sure you drag down to highlight all lines of the address. Next copy the URL address. Press Ctrl-C (press the control key and the “C” key at the same time). You won’t see anything happen on the screen, but that is fine. Click OK to close the “Properties” box. Open your profile or a bubblemail (or any other location in RB where you want your image to be visible). Press Ctrl-V (press control key and the “V” key at the same time). You should see the URL address. Put an exclamation point ( ! ) in front of the URL address and another one at the end of the URL address. It should be similar to this example, but without the spaces: ! http://images-0.redbubble.com/img/art/cropped/size:xsmall/view:main/993259-1-yellowstone-in-winter.jpg ! Remember, NO SPACES before or after the exclamation point (!) – the beginning of the URL should look like this: !http:// The end of the URL address should look like this: winter.jpg! NOTE: These will be full-size copies of the images. If you would like to have smaller images (see my profile for examples) that don’t take up so much room, see my other tutorial on how to resize the images.

  This tutorial is mainly for the bubblers that are new to navigating the RB site. The calendars are quite easy to create. The most important thing to remember is that all images must meet the following requirements. Even one pixel below these numbers and it won’t work. 2182 by 1906 pixels for the main pages / 3271 by 2874 pixels for the cover page Click on “my bubble” Click on “calendars” (in the 2nd row of menu items) Click on “Add a new calendar” (right-hand side of screen) Add a title and description (optional, but recommended) Add your cover image (When you click on the little down arrow, it will bring up a list of titles of all the images in your gallery, even the ones that may be “hidden” or “not for sale”.) Then just start adding images, one for each of the twelve months. If you aren’t quite finished but want to save it, use the “Hide” feature at the bottom of the page. Then you can make changes without anyone seeing it. When you are ready to publish, then change to “Allow Anyone to View This Work”. I hope this is helpful.

• Adding Colour Back to a B&W Image

  For some strange reason you’ve found yourself with a B&W image that you want to add some colour back into. Perhaps the bride holding the bouquet would look really nice if the roses were red and the stems were green but the rest of the image was left in B&W. There are several ways that you can go about this in Photoshop but what we’re looking for is the most flexible, one that we can edit later without having to bin a couple of layers because the colours weren’t quite right. You know the scene, spend a few precious hours doing the roses in the bouquet and then you find out that the darn things were pink, not red …... arghh! The question is, is there something within Photoshop that can help us ….. indeed there is. Anyone who has restored some old photos will know all about hand colouring and basically, that is what we are going to do. Open a B&W image, or just desat a colour one, or convert to grayscale (not that you would normally do that) but we’re just going to have a play and we don’t want any colour in the image, we don’t want it in RGB mode. So what adjustment would give us the most flexibilty to change the colour if we chose too. You guessed didn’t you :-) We’re going to be working with a Hue/Saturation adjustment layer and we’re going to check the colorize box. At this point the whole image is going to be whatever colour you choose, that’s okay, we’re going to fix that. Choose a colour with the Hue slider – Adjust the Saturation slider and the Lightness slider until you are happy with the colour. Now you’ve got this great big mess but we’re gonna fix it. Go down to the little mask icon at the bottom of the layers palette and click on it. You will now have a white box next to the hu/sat adjustment layer – and you’ll notice that you image still looks awful. So lets fix it. Click on the mask (white box) to make sure that it is active and press ctrl i on the keyboard (cmd i for the Mac) The mask should now have turned black, and the image should look exactly like it did when we first started. Grab your brush, and making sure that the f/ground colour is set to white (cos on a black mask, white reveals) and simply paint the area that you want the colour to show through. Change the layer blend mode to soft light, or if you don’t like that try overlay or one of the other blend modes. Don’t forget that you can also use the opacity slider to take down the intensity of the colour. So yeah! how am I going to change the red roses to pink ? – double click on the hue/sat adjustment layer (not the layer mask), and the hue/sat dialogue box will appear. Change the hue/sat/lightness sliders till you get a whole other colour …. magic, you don’t have to trash layers and with them all you’re hard work. You can do this as often as is needed to add various colours back into the image. Do a red adjustment layer for the roses and then a green one for the stems and leaves (example). Heck, do various shades of red and green if you want. It’s flexible and relatively simple to master. Do gradients as well if you like and have that effect on a single rose and another gradient effect on a different rose. Make sure your f/ground and b/ground colours are set to what colours you want to use in your gradient. Click the little adjustment icon at the bottom of the layers palette and click gradient. From the dialogue box pick your f/ground b/ground gradient choose linear (or one of the other gradients available) click okay, add a layer mask, invert the layer mask, grab the brush tool, making sure that it is set to white – and paint in your gradient. This is limited to a certain degree but you can get some really nice effects going on and best of all it is editable. Here are a couple of sample shots. I’m not a flower photographer, so this is about the only image with a flower in it, but it will give you an idea of what you can do. Disclaimer – All spelling mistakes are deliberate :-)

  Hey there kids, we here in the big red bubble floating high above the city’s spires have this irrepressible itch to make some kind of advert, a video, a short film if you will, to emphasise and explain all the magical things that redbubble can do for people, trouble is we’re up in a big red bubble floating high above the city spires and it would be completely impossible to make it up here, there’s no power sockets or even a flat surface, just bubble, lots of it. So we need your help. We want to hear ideas for a short clip, from spoof documentary to public acts of insanity, via ridiculous comedy and professional corporate clarity, it just has to grab it’s unsuspecting audience and fling them a brighter world, without giving them an awful lot of other options. At this stage in the proceedings we don’t wish to impose too many guidelines on length/style/timeframe etc. and don’t start making yet, it would be a tragedy to go and film yourself having our logo tattooed on your forehead and then find out we weren’t happy with the camera angle, we just want to hear the colourful concepts nestling within your neurons. However here are a couple of equations to ponder over while you scribble furiously: -More dangerous = Higher chance of court case = Less likely. / -Lavish three part, 9 hour sagas = One year of shooting time = More expensive = Less likely. Other than that go crazy, pitch your treatments to us and maybe, just maybe, you’ll be assisting in the making of the finest advert since that one about the fish. Oh and you might get some cash, yup cash, ahhh now you’re interested. AND when you do come up with some gems, stick them in here in the forums for a better discussion. onetonshadow

• Making Fog/Mist in Photoshop

  You may want to add some atmosphere to an image in the form of fog/mist and we can do this quite easily in Photoshop. First I’d like to thank MARK GERMAN for letting me use his Silence Lane image in this tutorial. If you don’t have an image to try this tutorial out on, you will have to contact Mark to ask his permission to use it. Here is our start image Our image with one application of fog/mist And I added another layer of fo/mist because I wanted to cover the bottom right of the image a little more. A larger view of the finished image is available HERE So lets get started. Open your image, duplicate and close the original. I want you to click on the new layer icon at the bottom of the layers palette, or you can go to the top menu bar and go Layer>New>Layer, or press Ctrl+Shift+n. Making sure the new layer is active and that your foreground/background colours are set to the default of black/white (press d on the keyboard if they aren’t, or if white is the f/ground and black the b/ground, press x on the keyboard) go to the filter menu in the top tool bar and choose Render>Clouds. In this tutorial I have applied Render>Clouds once, if you would like some variation on this press Ctrl+f on the keyboard to repeat but you will also notice that the clouds appear differently each time. To get some rather different effects, instead of pressing Ctrl+f – press Ctrl+Alt+f ....... try it and see :-) So now we’re going to give the clouds a little blur. Go to Filter>Blur>Motion Blur and you can set the same amounts as I have in the image below. Most of what you do from now on will vary according to each image, and what it is you are trying to achieve. At the bottom of the layers palette you will see a little icon with FX on it, 2nd from left, I want you to click on that and choose Blending Options from the menu – alternatively you can go to the top menu bar and choose Layer>LayerStyle>Blending Options – and a dialogue box will appear like the one in the image below, I’ve highlighted the part of the dialogue box that we will be using next – ‘Blend If’ Make sure that ‘Blend If’ in the highlighted red area is set to gray. You’ll notice that the sliders have a triangle at each end (black and white) we will be concentrating on the black end, so don’t worry about the white slider. You’ll also notice that the triangle shape has a small white area in the middle of the slider, this is so that we can split the slider, which we are going to do now. Hold down the alt key (option for mac) and put your cursor to the right of the white area then click and drag the slider, it should now have split into a half triangle. Looking at the image below, move this half of the traingle to 125, then come back and move the left part of the half triangle to 25. When you’ve done that, click ok. Now I want you to press Ctrl+t on the keyboard to bring up the Transform tool, or you can go to Edit>Transform>Scale – you will have to decide at this point where you want the fog/mist to be and bring the top down accordingly, as I’ve done in the next image. What you will have to do next is throw in a gradient to take away the harsh transition. Making sure your f/ground and b/ground are set to the default, select the gradient tool and on the top menu bar make sure that black to transparent is selected. You need to do the gradient from the top to the bottom, BUT not from the top of the image, from above the harsh line of the clouds layer. You may have to do this more than once, just keep trying until you get a nice transition. In the image below I did the gradient 4 times till I got it how I wanted it. I then took the opacity of the layer down to 70%. I then duplicated the clouds layer by dragging it to the create a new layer icon at the bottom of the layers palette and with that layer selected I grabbed my move tool from the side menu bar and moved it up until it was were I wanted it. Now I have a harsh transition at the bottom of this clouds layer, so do the same as above except start at the bottom of the harsh line and work upwards with your gradient. A bit of practice will make this a very simple task. I changed the opacity of this clouds layer to 60%. The image below shows the final work, which btw is different from the image at the top of this tutorial because I couldn’t remember what I had done LOL :-) And the larger image HERE Remember that all of these steps can be used in various ways on different images, not just to create fog/mist and they can be adapted to create the type of fog/mist you want – it is the process that is important.

  Did you know that is very simple on Redbubble to add emphasis to your text with bold or italics or underline ? If you want to make your text bold, then it must be surrounded by asterisks * with no spaces before or after the symbols. Example: * text * (no spaces!) = text If you want to make your text italic, then it must be surrounded by the underscore symbol _ with no spaces before or after the symbols. Example: _ text _ (no spaces!) = text If you want to make your text underlined, then it must be surrounded by the plus sign + with no spaces before or after the symbols.

  Only a few from a wedding I did today… didn’t get home until quarter to 2AM. It’s 5.30AM and I’m not tired yet, hence this post. Still editing all the pics but here are a few I’ve quickly played around with before I go to bed.

  Danni the art director, of PhotoShop Creative Magazine, sent me an email a few months back asking permission to use some of my artwork to promote the magazine’s webpage and the magazine itself. Billboy was kind enough to scan me the page and send it to me. I won’t see Issue #42 for a month or so here in Canada BillyBoy is also in the magazine aswell on the opposite page!

  I am becoming aware as the days go by that I am not getting notification of new works by some people on my watchlist. As I am discovering who, I am removing them from my watchlist and then re adding. So I am sorry to those and hopefully that will solve the problem, and I shall be notified in future.

• Don't be stingy, Don't be Lazy, Help YOURSELF!!

  People can be either selfish or they practice too much self humility.. i think confidence is necessary to survive. One must learn how to be be thick-skinned sometimes and think like a businessman once in awhile.. we can’t just rely on mere word of mouth or just 1 website to promote our art. that’s just an excuse to be lazy. So unless we wanna die like all the great artists of the past, poor and acknowledged only after we die, we should do something for ourselves already!! Do some networking. Make more friends. Get more contacts. Know more suppliers/printers/artists. Start a joint exhibition. Print some namecards. Form a group in great and “in” networking places such as Facebook and Myspace or something. The internet is a GREAT place for advertising, and self promotion. If you’re internet smart, you can even promote yourselves without coming out with much money! Places such as Facebook, Myspace, and even blogs are in fact great for networking. in fact, i’m going to start doing some promoting of all my fav artworks in RB in my blog soon. And having read the entries at the forum started by Karin i am now starting to think of starting a blog meant for those of them who’d be interested in promoting themselves. And also form a facebook group, or ask RB for permission to touch up their application there. Then i wanna see how much we can all gather to invest, and from there, i think we can work out on a advertising plan of some sort, i hope. seriously, when it comes to spending money, people blanched at the thought of spending $10 and they expect to earn hundreds and thousands for free.. sigh.. there’s no free lunch in this world people.. you gotta work for it, just like you work for your art! ok… hmm.. i sound very different from the usual bubbly me~ well, if you don’t already know, i am not 24/7 bubbly and hyper. i don’t have an inner monster to humor people. i get very cheesed off when in contact with anyone who’re lazy or irresponsible or makes lame excuses to support themselves. This is why i am no longer working in any company.

• 'WHEN' and 'WHEN NOT TO' add a frame to a pic.

  Hi Everyone Wayne Holman, whose excellent work can be found at: http://www.redbubble.com/people/wayneholman made the following comment on my pix http://www.redbubble.com/people/andyreeve/art/746983-1-laid-up “I don’t think you need the frame though mate it’s good enough as it is…........” Well that stopped me dead in my tracks. After someone pointed out a while back that there is a range of frames in CS2 off I went like a madman adding them to most of my pics. Food for thought then following Wayne’s comment. So I would appreciate it if we could start a discussion on this page about ‘when’ and ‘when not to’ add a frame. Would any one else care to add some definitions of their own? Looking forward to hearing your thoughts. Andy

  Oops / i am so silly sometimes… / SOoo… someone asks me earlier today how old my daughter Zafyre is “15 months” i reply…. / now, this has actually been asked quite a few times over the past few weeks, and, each time I have replied “15 months” / Zafyre was born 14th December, 2006. / now do the math… Okay so i cannot add for shite! lol! :) / I’ll admit it, I’m one of those people that count using my fingers, :) / and so my mind’s been playin tricks / when asked, I think fleetingly, she’s born in december, its now may, thats 5 months so she is 15 months….WRONG! I cant believe it, I’ve been misleading everyone about her age without realising it. / A year is 12 months chicky, not 10. / So, that means that 12 + 5 = 17 months… / silly mummy i am… / :) :) :) / So, to everyone who thought Zafyre was 15 months old, sorry to mislead you due to my fabulous mathematical skills :) / She is officially 17 months old, going on 18 months… perhaps this has been my subconciousness denying that my little bubby is growing into a little girl… :)
