  I posted a piece on how to do t-shirts a while ago. I deleted it when I realised that a lot of my ideas were wrong, but I think that I can offer some useful advice this time. The template posted here at RB is what I’m using now. If you haven’t worked with it before the simple way to eliminate the white rectangle and red lines is to click on Select – top left – then All, then go to Edit and Cut. That wipes everything off. I have saved the template in that fashion now. I had a lot of trouble with fonts. Everywhere I looked on the net I found instructions on how fonts could be added to the Gimp menu and I couldn’t make any of them work. My final solution was: a – make sure every font I wanted was loaded into my Windows font folder; / b – uninstall Gimp and the GTK Runtime Environment which it requires; / c – reload the latest versions of each, available here. Maybe I just got lucky, but it worked. All fonts now available. I had created another problem for myself by creating my own template, but this wasn’t an issue until recently when RB changed the production method for the T’s. Effectively I had put all my messages on a white background rather than a clear background. / I found the answer on this page, which gives instructions on how to make any colour transparent in Gimp. If you’re starting from scratch in Gimp and want to do a text T, it’s very simple (he said, having banged his head long and hard over this problem). Once you have the template open and prepared as I described earlier, click the bold T (for Text) on the control panel. This will open a box which will show options like fonts, colour – click on each to display the full range – size of text, and alignment. Click on the point of the template where you want the words to appear. This will open a small window – as you type, the words will appear here and also on the template. The template display will create a yellow boundary around your words. I find it easiest to start in the top left corner and then move the text to where I want it by clicking on the four-arrow icon. This should turn your yellow boundary to white, and the text will move as you desire. Hope this helps. PS: I’ve just used the colour to clear technique to create a negative version of my Amaze T shirt, Amaze T2. ADDENDUM: I posted this piece, Programs I Use, in the forums some time ago. I’ll link to it here for your further consideration.

  Creating Heart
  by Anthea Slade

  Creating Heart featured in Feminine Intent 16 Nov 09 My poem Creating Heart featured in Poetry and Beautiful Women 19 April 09 Creating Heart / / In that moment when our hearts break / We can choose to remain open / Feel our pain / or shut down. / / If we remain open we are raw / We scud through a plethora of emotion: / shock black, anger red / grief grey, growth green / love pink. / The odyssey of pain. / / Often the violence of our pain / makes us want to withdraw / like a deer, to lick wounds / like a hermit to fall within ourselves. / / If we choose to close down / We divert our minds / Our wounds stay open and / then become crusty and dry / And our heart shrinks, tightens, / and the creative flow…stops. / / If we stay open - / vulnerable…fragile everything hurts. / Looks shatter. / Words annihilate to red raw. / We crumble and fragment / And we bleed. / / But we survive if we live our emotions / We wear our feelings out until / our tears a continual waterfall on our / face wash the pain away. / And we begin to heal. / / Our divine inner child walks / and than dances again / Delicate fragile and raw / our heart breathes / And our creative flow continues / Vulnerable we can create and feel. / / And we grow and we reconstruct / and put our pieces back together / Raw, exposed and alone / we draw from our heart / to create beauty / Alchemists and transformers we / recreate ourselves in a new form. / / Naked, consumed in the act of creation / engaged and enraptured / we are consumed forever in / creating line by line / brushstroke by brushstroke / colour, line and form / uninhibited and free / creating beauty, creating life / ...Creating Heart. / / Written by Anthea Slade 14-9-08 Heart Series / Drawing One / 5-4-08 / Pencil and Oil Pastel

  Create Your Own Riot
  by casualco

  This design is a playful pun of the old classic subbuteo where the 70’s kids instead of ‘flicking to win’ the game of football, is to take the opposition’s pub, aiming to get across from your end of the street and get in their boozer. / Using your tactics, nous and experience you can dodge the rivals and over zealous police and get yourself a proper result. Hours of fun can be had during the season. / You’d be gloating all about it the next day in school no doubt.

  A few peopple wanted to know how I created Swingtime, so here’s a walkthrough for you all. / / This was done quite quickly, and without the precision used to create the actual art piece, so please forgive the roughness around the edges of some of the screenshots. All was done in Photoshop CS3 but as basic tools only were used, All versions of the program will suffice. / / Base image provided by sxc.hu below / / Download it here and view the user agreement 1. Open the forest image in Photoshop. On top menu click Image – Adjustments – Colour Balance. Add yellow, red and magenta with the sliders, on Highlights and Shadows, until you get a deep rich forest. 2. Model image [taken by me. Model posed seated on a bucket holding hands up]. 3. Open model image in Photoshop. Top menu, click Select – All, then click Edit [again in the top menu] – Copy. Work on the forest image and click Edit – Paste, to paste model as a new layer onto the forest scene. [see image below] 4. User the Eraser tool on the toolbar, set to low hardness and 100% opacity to erase the background from the model layer. [See image below] 5. Erase further parts of the dress, that would not look natural if sitting on a swing. Pay particular attention to the waist area [which will give the impression of leaning back slightly], and the overhang at the back. [See image below] 6. Still working on the model layer, click Edit [top menu] – Free Transform. This will place handles around the model so that you can resize it. Then use the move tool to place the model where you want her in the scene. 7. Still working on model layer, click Image – Adjustments – Levels, and change the settings to make your model glow with colour [suggested settings below] 8. Now for the feet. This image was rendered in Daz studio / / 9. Repeat the process to copy and paste the feet image into your scene as a new layer [step 3] 10. Working on the feet layer, erase the background, then use Edit – Free Transform to resize. In the layer palette in the bottom right hand corner of your workspace – drag and drop this feet layer so that it appears underneath the model layer. Use the move tool to place the feet where you want them in the scene. Adjust the colour as required. [Step 1] Now for the swing Bench image provided from sxc.hu – cristi modoran Download it here and view the user agreement 11. Open bench image in Photoshop and paste into your forest scene [Step 3]. Crop it down to just the part you need and delete the excess. 12. Use the Polygonal Lasoo tool to select an area of the bench to use as a swing seat. 13, Once selected, click Select [Top menu] – Inverse, then hit Delete on the keyboard to remove the part of the bench image that you don’t need. Then use Edit – Free Transform to resize the swing seat, and the move tool to place it over the model in the scene. 14. Working on the model layer, Use the Magic Wand tool to select her dress. With the selection still active, switch to the bench layer and use the eraser to remove the part of the swing which covers the dress. Because the dress area has been selected, you do not need to be precise, as only areas of the seat within the selection will be affected. 15. Repeat step 3 to paste the rope image [link below] onto your scene. Drag the rope layer in the layer palette so that it is underneath the model layer. Use Edit – Free Transform, then Edit – Transform – Rotate to make it vertical. Erase the background and use the move tool to position it to the swing. rope image from Ladyleaf at sxc.hu 16. Working on the model layer, zoom in and erase the part of the hand that should be hidden by the rope. 17. Working on the rope layer – Duplicate it and move it over to the other side of the swing seat. Repeat step 16 on the other hand of the model layer. 18. Merge all layers except the background layer to bring you back to two layers within the layers palette. Use level adjustments on each layer in turn to blend them in well. 19. Finally, use the Burn tool to burn out the edges of the models dress overhang and the areas where the ropes meet the swing to give depth. Use the Dodge tool to make the models hair and dress pop with colour. 20. Flatten image and use White, and a star brush to add sparkles. Save image as jpeg. The end result can be seen Here / / Have fun, and let me know how yo uget on :)

  Makin' Stuff While My Buddies Watch
  by Steven Novak

  I did this illustration in college for a children’s book I had written. Honestly, I don’t even remember the name of it. (I know, that’s bad of me…bad Steve, BAD!) I don’t remember it being all that good of a story anyway. Had something to do with a kid making a rocket ship, then going to space and having crazy adventures with space monsters. (Not exactly crazy-original).

  The Ole' Swimmin' Hole
  by Steven Novak

  Did this one a while quite a while ago. Back when I was in my early twenties… (Oh crap I’m getting old.) Who are the monsters? Why are they swimming on a faraway planet with a pot bellied little boy? Why did I feel the need to use so much marker on this piece? I don’t have the answers to any of that…sorry. Deal with it.

  This is Vimy Ridg In Wateron Glacier National Park Located on the Canadian Side in Southern Alberta. / This National Park is a World Heritage Site and is also dedicated as Waterton International Peace Park / I have been told that this shot is rarely captured, due to the frequency of the winds around this area.

  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. If you run into problems or still have questions, please don’t hesitate to let me know. Have a blessed day! / Patricia CLICK HERE FOR ALL TUTORIALS BY PATRICIA / Add Buttons To Your Profile Page / How to make a calendar / Downsizing those example images on your profile page / Adding Examples (Card, Laminated, Matted, etc) To Your Profile / Add photos to your profile description / Adding emphasis to your text / Plus more tutorials!

• The Easy Guide to Creating Samples of Artwork on Redbubble - UPDATED
  by Peter Hill

  Have you ever wondered how people add samples of stuff like this? !http://images-3.redbubble.net/img/art/border:blackwithdetail/produc…

  Have you ever wondered how people add samples of stuff like this? Want to do the same? Good! How well you present your work is a measure of the pride it holds for you and is a key driver of sales and the appreciation and interest of others. Due to popular demand, the aim of this Guide is to show how easy it is to insert artwork into a Comment, a Description, and even a Journal. Anywhere on RB you can write stuff, basically, you can include a pretty pitcha. I have written this guide in plain language, not IT guru nerds language. If you already know how to do this, please leave now. First, some key points: You can only show samples of artwork which have been already uploaded onto RB. You do not have to publicly show any artwork just to get a sample of it. You can remove an artwork from RB and this will not affect any sample of it you have already posted on RB elsewhere. When I say below do not leave a space between typed characters I really do mean do not leave a space. This is because you will be typing an instruction to the computer to go and grab the image and insert it in a specific spot and the computer can’t read spaces like we can. Ever noticed those Group Bubblemails with all that funny writing, like http: and .jpg! ? Those are examples of attempts to show samples done wrong. Usually it’s because they left a space! The point is: always check before you click Save or Reply and especially afterwards! (Memo to self: remember to check this posting!) Finally, this guide may seem long, but as Morgan Freeman said in Deep Impact, “It only seems that way.” Once you get the hang of it, creating samples will take mere seconds. Righto, here we go … mouses at the ready? Step One Upload the image you want to show a sample of, if you have not already done so. If the image you want to make a sample of is already on RB, go to Step Two but make sure the image is available for sale. If it isn’t, go into Edit and follow this step. When you upload the image (or Edit the upload), make sure you select Make this work available for purchase as a … and tick all the boxes. It doesn’t really matter if the image is too small for a poster. Just tick ‘em all and find out. As long as the image is at least big enough for a card, you can create a sample of the artwork in a card form. If the image is too small even for a card you cannot create a sample and you will have to go back and increase the size of the image and try again (hmmm, could be another tutorial there). Note: If you are uploading an image for the sole purpose of showing a sample of it, do not bother writing a Description or ticking any of the Group boxes, and make sure you tick Hide this work from others. Step Two Go to the Public view page for the artwork you wish to create a sample of. Pretend you are buying the artwork. Click the buy/preview icon to the right of the image because you will be creating your sample from one of the displayed examples of each purchase option. Step Three Decide which of the product options you want to use as a sample. Try a few different ones to see which is the one which really shows off the work. If the image size only allows for Small of anything, your best option usually is to choose a laminated print over a framed print because the actual visual size of the artwork in the framed print is generally too small. Step Four Once you’ve decided upon the type and specifications for the sample, Right Click once while holding the mouse over the image. A list of options should have appeared. At the very bottom of this list is the word Properties. Move the mouse over Properties and Left Click once. A new window should have opened. Halfway down the list of properties you will see Address: with the acronym URL immediately under it. This is the place on the RB big computer (server) where the pitcha of your sample product is stored – it’s address. (OK, all you tech heads are now cringing at my howler, but it’s ok, okaay :)) You need to copy the address and paste it (Step Five) in the exact place you want it to be shown. To copy the URL, hold the mouse over the start of the address, just to the left of the term http. When I say “just to the left” I mean right up against the “h” of http. The mouse needs to change from an arrow to a symbol which looks like a capital i in traditional font (Times New Roman). When that happens and with the mouse still right on that “h”, press and hold the Left mouse button and then, while still holding down the left mouse button, move the mouse straight down vertically. The address should now be highlighted. Keep moving down until the end of the address is within the highlighted area. The end of the address is always .jpg and you will always need to scroll down one line before you reach it. Now let go of the left mouse button, leaving the address highlighted. Keeping the mouse over the highlighted area, Right click once. Two options will appear. Select Copy (left mouse button). Now click on the Cancel icon at the bottom of the Properties window. This is just to close it. Step Five – Wallah! Now go back to where you want to show the sample. Let’s assume you are making a comment on a brilliant piece of artwork and you wanted to show a sample of it framed or laminated as part of your comment (the artist will love you for it!) All you need to do is Paste the address of the sample where in your comment you want the sample to appear, eg at the end. To do this, firstly Left click on that space so that the cursor is blinking. Now Right click once and select Paste. The address you copied in Step Four should now appear as part of your comment. (But it isn’t really). It must start with http and it must end with .jpg. If it doesn’t you need to delete what you just pasted and go back and re-copy the address and re-paste it. You are allowed to swear while doing so. Step Six – Really Important Before you hit the Reply button, you need to add the symbol that tells the computer to go get the pitcha. You must type this symbol once at the start of the address and once at the end of the address without leaving a space between the typed characters. The symbol is the exclamation mark. So, make sure the start of the address looks like this – !http – and the end of the address looks like this – .jpg! Now you can hit the Reply button. Step Seven – Really Really Important Check to make sure the linking worked. The address should have been replaced by the pitcha. But wait…there’s more You can create a sample of an image in its own Description in exactly the same way as I have described above. I normally do this by uploading the artwork, making it available to purchase as … whatever, but hiding it from public view. Then I simply go into the buy/preview page, grab the address of the sample, then paste it into the Description while still in Edit mode, then click on *Allow anyone to view this work before saving. Hope this guide answers a few questions for you! If so, you might like to also check out my guides to creating clickable images and creating links Any problems feel free to either bmail me or email me at peter_h111@msn.com. If you already know how to do all the above, please don’t feel the need to leave a comment, thanks. :)

  Once Upon A Time....
  by stephanie clifton

  This calender consists of a series of ongoing portraits created through the process of stepping out of my own way and allowing collected imagery symbols mixed media and intuition to BECOME! Once upon a time…... I planned my art by doing a sketch or having an idea….at least a place to start. And once upon a time I realized there was more that needed expressing than my underused brain could imagine….and I have a GOOD imagination. This intuitive way of working was a necessary step in my own evolution as artist and being….to relinquish control….to learn to listen to my inner guide or higher self. I came to find during this exercise that ‘what I was asked to put on canvas’ seemed to make no sense at all …...just strange little pieces from nowhere…or so I thought yet as I was living my life I realized that it made no sense either. I concluded that this no sense or nonsense I was creating through my judgment actually reflects the innate sense we come from and all have,,,,THE BIG SENSE….....a sense beyond …....and so I trust this way of working more than I trust my way of working! LOL Enjoy IN JOY in whatever sense you can.

  Learn How to create selective color image in Photoshop - Many times selective color images convey the message more strongly than just a color or monochrome image. Photoshop has provided the freedom to work on a color image to get final desired result. Although, nothing is predictable or can be planned to get good result in photography, the best out come or result is still depend on basic skill of human being – i.e. Creativity. Here is my methodology for SC processing - There is no thumb rule for an image used for selective color processing. You can use Portraits, Landscapes, Stills, Candid images, Macro or any of your choice. Once you decide to work on any image real PS fun begins. I selected Colors of Life for SC processing. 1. Open an image as a new file or copy of original image. 2. Make a duplicate layer ( CTRL + J ) 3. Convert the image to Black and White using Desaturate command. ( Image > Adjustments > Desaturate OR just press CTRL + SHIFT + U ) or the Channel mixer ( Image > Adjustment > Channel Mixer ). Color information of the original image will be removed and image will appear B&W. 4. While the top layer is selected adjust image resolution to 100% or just press ALT + CTRL + 0. 5. Now select History brush tool to retrieve details from original image. 6. Adjust brush size, opacity and flow to the desired level. ( This can be done by experimenting ). 7. Start painting on the area you want to bring back for color. 8. Since, it is a brush you can literally “bring back” only certain parts of the image by painting them. 9. Finally just FLATTEN the image. LAYER – Flatten Image. Save to desired file extention TIF, PSD or JPG Usually, I prefer TIF for original and then convert to JPG. I got the final result in Intent . . . . . . . I humbly say, I am not a Photoshop expert, I still have to go a lot distance but sharing this method will help many, as this form of art was one of my dreams and thought it might not be a reality for me. But it happened for me, and wish to happen it for many :) PS : You can create a copy of original background layer and experiment with blending options to create perfection keeping upper most layer as described above untouched.

  Man creating religion
  by clickinhistory

  This is the statue of the Roman Emperor Constantine outside the west door of the the Church of St Peter, better known as York Minster. The sunrise was just catching his arm and the tower under repair on the Minster and the composition mirrors the fact that in God creating man, so Constantine created Christianity as the state/politically sanctioned religion, thus starting years of debate, slaughter and torture along side learning and art.
