Tech Tutorial

[*]Create a new image with white background.
[*]Make some nifty render with Plasma. Filters->Render->Clouds->Plasma
[*]Convert it to Greyscale. Layer->Colors->Desaturate
[*]Make it to mosaic. Filters->Blur->Pixelize,choose 10x10pixels

Now it will look something like this.


[*]Filters->Blur->Motion Blur. Choose Zoom and Blur Parameters 15
[*]Filters->Disorts->Emboss. Values as below.



[*]Filters->Edge-Dectect->Edge. Algorithm=Prewitt, Amount=9, Wrap
[*]Then go Filters->Blur->Motion Blur.
[*]Blur Type=Zoom, Blur Parameters=20, let the rest be on default.
[*]Change the contrast alittle with Layer->Colors->Brightness and Contrast.

Now you have got yourself a cool Tech image. you can now set what color you need.
[*]Layer->Colors->Color Balance

Add a cool border or just a booring one like i did..


Another image i did with this guide.


And now you can add alot of more tech stuff and text not coverd in this tutorial.

Hey, here is something that I came up with. The only thing I didn't
do was blur the final result. I didn't like how it looked.

Awesome tutorial. I've been seeing images like those around this site and on other sites and I've been wanting to make them for a while and now I know how.

Thanks Luktar!
