    Super work ... thanks for sharing and the tutorial...


    I tried my hand at OOB and had a couple of questions...

    1) Do you guys use a mouse or one of those wacom pens? It would seem to be quite tedious to outline certain subjects with a mouse.

    2) In your tutorial, on page 21, when you paint over, you can see the background with the gradient. However, when I tried this, the entire background got erased. Is there any other setting in the gradient toolbar that I am supposed to set (i.e. do i set the 'mode' to 'normal' or 'clear')?

    3) I also have a tough time getting the drop shadow behind the layer mask. When I try and select with the magic wand tool, it seems that I did not paint over the entire background... it is not a clean selection...

    I've been away from this site for awhile and what a thread to come back to. I've read it from start to finish. :D

    All I can say is WOW!!! bowdown.gif and roll on winter so that when the weather is horrid outside I can try and do some OOB at least half as good as the ones posted so far.

    I love what you all have done!!!

    Ok, so I spent the afternoon trying this. This is my second attempt, what do you think? I know I could have spent more time working on the pixles. I so respect you guys and all the time I know it takes to get the wonderful OOBs you have. bowdown.gif

    This is a very cool thread, and fun. Here are a couple attempts I have done and still need a lot of practice.

    Question: Are there any secrets to getting the crisp lines on the photo outside the frame? A lot of these other examples don't have any blurs in their lines like on some parts of mine. Is there an easier way to do it then just using the brush?

    Every one on this page is terrific.

    Cuban, if that's a first attempt you have a bright future spending endless, nonproductive hours on these OOBs.:D Nice job.

    Here's one I did last year playin' around. Looks like I may have to do a serious one. ;)
