    I have paper textures just like this, but I cannot make them bright like that...

    I was wondering what you set them to? I have Photoshop Elements 6.0 and they work when I use them on Multiply, but they're dark. Please help me, I love the way they look! :lol:

    i set them always to multiply and it works
    maybe you just have to copy the base and screen it or just brighten the base
    sometimes screencaps are too dark and you have to try a lot till they look good


    waht also could work is: you could make a brush/stamp from the texture,and just stamp it :D

    As dopebabygirl said, I set them to Multiply and it works. Of course, before I do so, I usually set the duplicated base to screen to lighten up the pic. And of course, it depends on the color of the "paper". If it is dark red or some other dark color, the icon looks dark as well, but if the paper is white or a light color, then it works nicely.

    Thank you dopebabygirl and cathwillows. I was playing with them again yesterday and I duplicated the base and set it to overlay on top of the paper texture. That helped quite a bit. The textures were a dark grey too, so that probably didn't help. But I finally got these:

    Thanks again. :)

    Awesome David Cook ones shazza, I commented at your LJ! :D And thanks for the comment, the paper textures are awesome when you know how to use them!

    There are way too many more for me to comment on, but they all are really awesome, none I wouldn't use myself!

    I have three plus one! I AM NOT A RYAN/NATALIA SHIPPER! The pics and text brushes were just... there! I had to. xD Someone told me the last link looked CaRWashy too, which I also do not ship. :D I like DuDe though...

    Florry, I really like the coloring and the softness. It's a bit blurry, but I don't know if you were aiming for that effect. :) Great job!

    Here are 4 Ryan icons for everyone to enjoy. :D
