    Took me a few mins, maybe 20, because i had to find a **** load of graffiti images, and had to alpha to selection like 20 times, i think it turned out pretty bad ass.

    since it on topic, i will post here

    Alpha to selection is like taking a render, or the letter A, or any other object, and then alpha to selectioning it. [not a word i know.]

    What this does, is make it so if you use a brush, it will stay within the boundary of you render and text, this is how most people make silhouettes. But, what i do, is paste images into the selection, making it so the image only shows up in the selected boundry, also, this is a Gimp thing, i don't know if they have it on teh Ps

    MMMmmmm, I'll say.

    You, Lock, never cease to amaze me.

    And those are all rendered?!
    amazing.

    I cannot find a downside to this. It's an instant 10/10 (I almost never say 10/10)

    Also, thanks for explaning alpha. I always wondered what the hell that was!

    It looks cool, but did you just brush to make what the letters are filled with? Or did you use a stock?

    Very original. I like it, reminds me of something you'd see under a bridge.

    A bit multicolored for graffiti. It would require alot of paint mixing. Great idea though. You can do what you did on photoshop its just a little harder unless there is a PS feature i'm not familiar with.

    Nice work Lock, thats definitely a sweet signature, I am still thinking on my ideas for the Photo Manip, I did a lot of Photo Manip before so I might have a good idea of what to do, I think you should make more graffiti signatures the one you have now looks pretty tight, I like em tight lawl.

    It looks nice, but to be honest, I could probably make that in 5 minutes.

    Then again, I use Photoshop. :]

    I don't know I'm not one for graffiti so my opinion my be a lil biased but I still like this one a lil bit.

    but in general Graffiti = super fail

    I'll make one tomorrow if I don't get too crowded with requests. Speaking of requests, lock, are you in a shop right now?
