Blast Light

Creating a "Blast Light" in Photoshop
... inspired by the Star Wars movies
Luke from PA, using GIMP 2 with Windows, writes in with:
[Quote:] how you you do the lightsaber thingie i always see? (Here's an example of the technique I'm looking for)

Photoshop 911:
Create the object you wish to make the light sabre. Use the Pen tool to create a simple straight path. This will provide the structure for the "light" ...
Now, set a soft-edged brush to the appropriate size to be the thickness you need for the sabre.
Now, you'll use the Stroke Path command to paint the sabre. The Stroke Path command allows you to create a paint stroke (using the current settings for your painting tools) that follows any path.
Start a new layer. When you stroke a path, the color values appear on the active layer. Make sure the layer you want is active before beginning.

1. Select the path in the Paths palette (Cmd/click or Ctrl/click).2. Click the Stroke Path button at the bottom of the Paths palette. Each click of the Stroke Path button builds up the opacity of the stroke and in some cases makes it look thicker.
To stroke a path and specify options:
1. Select the path in the Paths palette.

2. Select the painting or editing tool you want to use to stroke the path.

3. Alt-click (Windows) or Option-click (Mac OS) the Stroke Path button at the bottom of the Paths palette. (Or, Choose Stroke Path from the Paths palette menu.)
There's the sabre.
To create the aura surrounding the sabre, duplicate the layer. Now select the bottom most Blast
Ctrl/click (Mac: Cmd/click) the layer to select the Blast Choose: Select > Modify > Expand Selection... and expand it to approximate the amount of aura you desire.
Fill the new, thicker, sabre with the desired aura color. Click Okay.
Drop the selection and choose: Filter > Blur > Gaussian Blur
Adjust the slider until the aura is as you wish.
Presto... Blast Light And, may the force be with you.

Jokes : The Prince

One day, there were customer going to photoshop editor in the corner of street. He brought a photo. He showed his photo to the editor. He had the photoshop editor edited his photo to be a prince.
“Hi editor, I want you to edit this photo, so it looks like a prince!” customer said, “I give you five minutes to edit it, so be quickly! I will give you much money, house, gold, plane, whatever you want, I will give to you. Here is the photo.”
The first time the editor looked the photo, he felt stomach-ache and head-ache. He said in the deepest heart,
“How ugly this person is!”
Actually the editor didn’t want to done the job but he didn’t wanted his customer satisfied and because the reward too, so he kept to finished the job.
The editor was stress, what must he did to edited the photos to be a prince. There were no idea in his brain to edited the photos. Three minutes passed away, the editor still stayed cool in front of his computer with the adobe photoshop opened. No action. He still thought hard.

The customer was surprised with the photo. He gave what the editor asked and left from the shop. The editor prayed, “God, please don’t give me job like that again…”
