Well what do we have here? Looks like PhotoshopStar has gotten a facelift! What do you all think of it? I hope the majority like it
Personally I love the new one, much more cleaner, easier to look at, more accessible, etc. If anyone has any suggestions, or comments, please leave a comment using the form below this post.
With this new design comes new hope, I’ve neglected this site for long enough, I’m going to try my hardest to bring it back. If anyone has any suggestions for tutorials, please send them to me.
Now I’ve posted this I’ve got to go and check make sure there’s no more glitches with the theme!

Correcting a red over-saturated photo using Photoshop can be either very easy, or very hard. For example, if you have a photo that is completely red rather than just a little bit over the top, then I think you would basically have to desaturate the photo and recolor it from scratch – now this, you don’t want to do.

The easy case though, when you have a photo that is only tinted an abnormal red, this is nice and easy to fix. There’s a few ways to do it, but in this tutorial we’re going to be using some adjustment layers, mostly the Channel Mixer adjustment layers.

For those of you that haven’t visited PhotoshopStar before, the background used to be a nice sky blue, but I thought I would have a change of scenery and change it to a dark gradient… what do you think?
PhotoshopStar might also be getting a complete face lift soon, so look out.

I really love this kind of style, so I thought just I’d share another tutorial with you guys (and girls, of course) on how to design something like what I’ve shown below, a kind of glossy, carbon fiber navigation set

I know I’ve already (somewhat recently) done a tutorial on a designing a clan/gaming template, but this is one looks completely different, and of course I just love designing clan templates! So, in this easy step-by-step tutorial, I’m going to be showing you how to design a somewhat professional, clan-gaming website template. You can see the preview below.

Well, in this easy Photoshop tutorial I’m going to be teaching you how to make a nice website design, a professional (business-style) website design, that is. You can see the website design I’ve made using this tutorial below.

In this quick Photoshop tutorial I’m going to show you how to design a sweet-lookin’ a golden badge, pretty much like this one I’ve designed below. For this tutorial I’ve used the example ‘100% satisfaction guaranteed seal/badge.’

Sorry, but yet another text effect tutorial!
I just can’t seem to think of any other ideas lately, feel free to leave a message in the comments if you have any ideas! Anyway, in this nice ‘n’ simple tutorial I’m going to be showing you how to make a “Butter Scotch” text effect
Like the one shown in the image below:

While I’m trying to get inspired to write some of my own tutorials, I thought some of you might like to know some of the Photoshop tutorial sites that I like to visit for eye candy
These are, in my opinion, some of the best tutorial resources on the internet.
GoMediaZine

N-Sane Art

EmpireDezign

PSDTuts

Tutorial Dog

The Art of Roberto Campus

And that’s all! I hope you enjoy some of their Photoshop tutorials, I know I did!

This is an article that I read in a Photoshop magazine/handbook that my brother bought me a few months ago. I completely agree with this article, and especially the title, don’t fear the filter!
In recent years, Photoshop filters have developed a bit of an image problem. Now, thanks to the growing sophistication of the digital arts, the time may be ripe for their rehabilitation…
