i noticed that a lot of them are for paint shop proi use photoshop cs, any for that one? or at least photoshopthanksciao!Brian S

The ones I've made on my little website are all done with Photoshop. Unfortunately I don't know of any extensive tutorials using Photoshop.. however feel free to ask any questions here :)

I just aquired a copy of Adobe Creative Suite, and one of the included programs is Photoshop CS2. I am addicted to it already, but as I have been a PSP user for the longest time, I am having a devil of a time adjusting. However Adobe is becoming the industry standard for graphics design, so i am trying to learn it instead for all of my work. Having all of Adobe's CS2 products is becoming quite an experience :-)That said, if you or anyone else would be so kind as to write a tutorial, I think it would be a hit on the FS community in a VERY good way. I did see a tutorial or two using Photoshop, but it was an OLLLLD version of Photoshop, and CS as well as CS2 have come a LONG way with a LOT of changes since those tutorials were made.

Hey Christopher, I've been a Photoshop man for a long time.. could never go back to PSP :)What kind of tutorials are you looking for? A full walkthrough like Garry J Smiths?

yeah, that kind of thing would be greatciao!Brian S

>Hey Christopher, I've been a Photoshop man for a long time..>could never go back to PSP :)>>What kind of tutorials are you looking for? A full walkthrough>like Garry J Smiths?Exactly. A walkthrough that guides one through an FS repaint. One aimed at helping the user get used to the interface, actually. It's the interface that is killing me LOL.And I am minoring in Photography in college, so eventually I have to learn this program no matter what, and since it is indeed becoming industry standard, I am proud to have the latest version :-)

Christopher and all, I've decided to do as you requested and embark on a full walk through. I'll leave my other mini tutorials to the side for the moment and attempt to complete this one. No promises on any completion dates as I'm moderately busy with things.I'll be releasing the walk through in parts and I'll make an announcement here when each one is done. It'll be kind of like buying one of those magazine model car kits and waiting for the next installment for the instructions and parts ;)The site I currently use for my outlet is a crapp lycos one.. does the job though. Check back there for any updates in the meantime.I'm on a little bit of a high at the moment because I've discovered how to do something on the website by accident that had me annoyed for the most part of this year!ClickOut of interest before I properly get into it, does anybody have any requests for the example paint scheme and aircraft? Prefably not a default, doesn't matter if its GA or Commercial.

Aye Lycos is very annoying, is it not? I am so glad to have my own domain. No ads or anything.http://guildofdarkhaven.org/flyingTake off the flying and you'd end up with my primary site, whioch is aimed at a Renaissance crowd **smiles**, but I sectioned off a chunk of my site for aviation.In thanks for your kindness in writing a tutorial, I'd be more than happy to donat a chunk of my web space to you to run your site from (you'd have your own subdomain and password, etc. and full FTP access to your site). I use Filezilla meself with my providor and it works beautifully. No ads or anything.Lemme know if you'd like that as it is all i can think of to give for now for your efforts on a tutorial for the community :-)BTW -- I may be bad with Photoshop still, but I do know a birt about web design. So in return ther as well, if you have any questions, ask away. FYI - Dreamweaver MX helped me a lot with design and development.

Hey Christopher :)Thanks very much for the offer, I'll keep that in mind. For the time being I'll just use my Lycos one for the time being in order to check everythings working, once its finished I'll take a rain check.I'm also a self taught intermediate Dreamweaver user, as well as flash and fireworks. I'm thinking about having a career in website design after I've discovered I can't get a Class 1 Medical.. you can't win them all ;)Edit - Still looking for a livery/aircraft. Any thoughts? I may choose a commercial as it'll give more opportunity to use all/most of the techniques.

I highly suggest one of the PMDG 737's or 747's as they have layered Photoshop paint kits (I think), unless you were going to teach the layering part too. A good livery I think is either UPS or Southwest. Something with lines that have to intersect on multiple areas as I have noticed that is what frustrates most painters is lining up pixels.As for web design, have you ever worked with Adobe's GoLive? I just got GL CS2 and it is going to be rather interesting to learn . . . .

I want to do a freeware one so people can download the aircraft to test out the paint scheme on. Perhaps a POSKY aircraft and a paint scheme with maybe a little bit more going on than UPS. Its difficult to decide!I'd never actually heard of GoLive before I looked it up just now.. certainly looks like an interesting program. I'll download the trail version to see what its like shortly :)

yeah i vote for pmdg 73g and there 1900c and lds 763either way one of those mentioned will work for me, even the 744ciao!Brian S

Ah Freeware? DEFINATELY the POSKY 757 then. That would be awesome. Aye I had nort even thought about PMDG and the payware bit. My apologies. I agree with you on that. And POSKY would be a perfect art piece to work with.

Looking through the pictures at airliners.. what about this My Travel livery on the POSKY 757? http://www.airliners.net/open.file/582269/M/ My only problem is I can see myself getting carried away and going into photoreal which I don't think would be too good for this tutorial. However, this may be an opportunity to attempt to make a photoreal tutorial as well.. its quite a different process than normal. Just finding the time to do it..

I only guessed that it was like using textures directly from photographs?
