It's an hour long.

I see were you're coming from. I've been working with graphic programs for a while. In all honestly i didn't see the differences, till you pointed them out.

@DuaneMoody,

Alright you got to tell me how you got the heart thing to work. I tried a few times, but kept getting the background in the pick.

NOOOOOOOOOO! Images on Hanako and Shirou "The Jackhammer" Emiya are now playing through my head! Not a good picture.

@DuaneMoody,

Is there some trick to get bold font in PS? I tried a few of the usual tricks, but i can't get to look right for the character names.


another shop for ya

Hahaha, cute.

HO MAN

You make my day XD

That scene with Rin is cute. I would like to see more like that and the ones shown earlier in the thread.

Keep up the good work guys





Have a nice day.

here is some i made for the Storyteller's thread

Well done on all of those.

The First one with Emi is well done,the thought of her being picked up it cute.

The one with Rin is funny and cute and seems like something she would say.

The last one,i get the feeling Shizune is going commit murder.

Vary well done. Cant wait for more of these.



Have a nice Day.

Haven't figured it out yet. Most type rendering engines have one of two fallbacks for fonts without proper bold faces: overlay a horizontally shifted copy of the letters or render the letters with a thicker stroke. Whatever libSDL_ttf is doing is something different, and it appears to involve changing the rules for antialiasing to something that neither Photoshop nor Fireworks have presets to match. Experiments suggest that the letters are rendered aliased and offset shifted -- then the resulting pixels are antialiased very lightly.

I'm guessing there is some add on out there for PS that allow this. Unfortunately i have yet to find it. I've found a way to get the lettering to look somewhat bold, but no wear near the way the character names are. (still pretty close though, if you want i can tell you how) I'll get looking and see if i can find the add on.

-Edit, I've just figured something out:
"playtime with hot toddies" doesn't have a bold or italic option. Though there is a way to fake this in Photo shop. There is an option on the top tool bar next to the text warp tool. Called "Toggle the character and paragraph patterns" Highlight the text you want to mess with and click on the icon. (It looks like a graph icon from Microsoft Excel) and a little icon box should pop up. There you can make the font bold, italic, all caps. and etc. I literally just discovered this a few minutes ago when i messing around in PS. I hope this helps

@Malek,

These were just senerio's from storyteller's thread last night that i shopped. The Emi one being one that i made as a possible conclusion to the "pick Emi up" choice. (It didn't happen ;_;) The other two were direct quotes that Storyteller made when Hisao was interacting with them.

Thanks for the information.

Well done on the new ones as well.
Keep up the good work.








Have a nice day.

Here are the ones i made for YM's thread

Dammit! I have been resisting the pull of YM's thread. Why are you sucking me in with these Pshops! It is a plot; a plot I say!

Vary well done on all of them,i like the effect you have for the last one. Nicely Done.
I like the face Emi has in the scene with Hanako and Rin.
Have a nice day.

Thanks for posting those, Snicket!
