Hi everyone! Just thought I would share my youtube channel and blog. :)

I have some cool tutorials on there such as creating gold jewelry text, unstable lightsabers, fireworks, enhancing the Flame plugin, and a cool wave effect taken from a Paint.net tutorial. Tell me how you like them and don't forget to subscribe, rate, and comment! :D

Your tutorials are clear and easy to follow. I like the way you open up a filter and kind of play with the controls while you are at it to see if you can get something better. :mrgreen:

I did the wave effect and it's fun.

The Lightsaber and Jewelry tuts have an annoying hum in the background. I expect that's a tech control thing, but they don't over-ride your voice.

I'd have voted in the Poll with a Yes if it would let me but the poll isn't working correctly.

Nice tuts!

[David Wood]

Thank you. I know the hum is annoying, I need a better mic or it might be where I recorded it. See I switched from the family comp to a laptop so it might just be that. I'll try extracting the audio and fixing it in Audacity too see if it makes a difference. :D

Too bad the poll wasn't working.

I loved the wave...I decided to suscribe, lol.
I tried a different way to color, I used different hue and saturation on each layer, then added another color as an overlay layer.
Great abstract tut!

[David Wood]

Nice. Might look good with a little more contrast. :)

[2-ton]

Ohh, it does! Also very interesting adding sharpening! Fun!

contrast upped 25, sharp up 75

[David Wood]

:D Cool!

[Arukas]

Lol cool tutorials man

That whirl one was pretty interesting, makes a pretty cool black hole type effect i enjoyed playing with it ^_^

[2-ton]

How did you get so many colors into it?

[David Wood]

Glad you liked it. That's a cool result you got. :D

It must have been a good tut cuz Gimper the administrator of gimp-tutorials.net asked me to do a written version, I'm just waiting for him to post it. :)

Alright, new tutorial up. Another request, creating 3D ice text. Click HERE. Enjoy! :D

very cool tutorial, thanks

[David Wood]

Glad you like it. So far it's my best tutorial considering I've only gotten 5 star ratings. :D

Here is a blog post about fractals and flames. As you know my first tutorial was on enhancing the flame plugin in Gimp since it is my favorite plug. Some would make cool wallpapers and I left some colorless for you to play with. :D

Alright everyone! New tutorial up. It's a signature tutorial and although there are tons of them already it's more about the background design then the sig itself.

I choose the dual monitor image so it looks a little smushed on my comp but they did have other sizes.
There are also a lot of really cool wallpapers on my buddy Derek's site, Pixellica

Holy Cow, the Pixellica site is awesome!
