Hey fantastic video I almost had it fully but got lost at the end 8:56 my star burst shape doesn't come out like yours, I made sure I had all the settings correct. Ima go on to the next video and see how it comes out without it
Your tutorials are awesome! You explain everything so well and speak so clearly, that 80% of the time, I just follow your instructions by hearing the audio...great job, Marty! I've paid good money to several online tutorial sites and that's how I learned Photoshop, but your free tutorials really kick their ass any day of the week...If you still don't have them, please consider making comprehensive Photoshop tuts for people who want to start off with this awesome software. Thanks again!
I have photoshop cc 2021 and when I'm at the step to indent the sides by 70% (8:46) that's not an option. I've been trying to figure out how to indent the sides of the shape forever help :(
for photoshop 2021 ive found th closet approximation to th tutorial is: polygon tool > choose pixel from drop down menu > 99 sides > gear icon > choose star ratio percentage, lower the more star-y > check 'from center' option > get similar effect. (mess around w th other options in th gear menu, tho ive been using th unconstrained option)
it would be a great help if you could just tell me what is happening at 9:11 . in my photoshop at this point i am stuck , because in this point i am not seeing the dotted line for selection for shape.. could you tell me what will i do ??
Go to Window>Shapes. This will open another window on the side where you can click the hamburger menu and choose the option Legacy shapes and more. After that you can see all of them :))
My photoshop doesn’t have those shapes and for some reason any time I try to download vectors it always says my version of photoshop doesn’t support the file type. 😢
1) Go to "Window" 2) "Shapes" 3) Click the icon at the upper, right of the Shapes panel to open the fly-out list 4) Click "Small List" 5) Open Back the fly-out list 6) Click "Legacy Shapes and More" 7) Scroll down the patterns list to see it
hi first of all thank you for tutorial ı want to ask ı can't do at 9.27 you saying click ctrl to frame but my programme don't show me frame. what can i do other than that? i have 2023 adobe photoshop
Problem in CS6 at 6:45: when I pull rounded rectangle tool from upper left to lower right > right click on path > click "stroke path" making sure pencil is shown and simulate pressure not checked > OK > I get bubbles following the path which appear to be about 300px wide. They are the color of my foreground color. Obviously they are following the path. I have no idea how to fix this. Can you please help me?
+David Evans It could be your pencil's tip shape "spacing". Press the F5 key at the top of your keyboard to open the "Brush" panel. Click "Brush Tip Shape" near the upper, left corner of the panel. On the lower right, make sure "Spacing" is no more than 25%.
My burst looks different than that, and the setting options are different than yours. It's giving me the same options as before (unconstrained, etc). It's not working. I have Photoshop CC 2021.
Nevermind! Thanks to a comment below, I got it to work. I followed these instructions and reduced the ratio to 30% and got the same effect.

I love this. I have Photoshop CC 2014. I have followed your instructions exactly. However, @7:27, when I double-click on the frame layer, then click on "color overlay", nothing changes on the layer-style. The frame itself goes gray, it doesn't change, and stays on "Blending Options"/ "General Options". "Colour Overlay" does not come up. I can't click on the colour box, as there isn't one. Please help, as I'm stuck. edit: I have just updated to CC 2015, and the right thing still doesn't come up!

Thats ok ive installed express its a lighter version bt it has bug different from the actual one and also i tried to download adobe photoshop for my windows pc i paused since it consumed almost 6gb of my mobile data
I've been trying to do the frame (with rounded rectangle tool) but it has been imposible. It makes the frame but when i do the stroke path step nothing happens. I have the CS6, and it seems to work differently. Do you know what might be the problem? Thank u. Love your videos.

Best photoshop tutorial I’ve seen👏🏾👏🏾
exceptional, you have truly mastered photoshop. long live blue lightning
Could you do a tutorial on the kind of effect used on the Pink Floyd album cover of Piper at the Gates of Dawn?
at 4:01 I dont have the option for any other shapes?
me too
same
I dont have Registration Target 2 in my shapes. where can i find it ?
the latest Ps 24.6 nolonger has legacy shapes - how do you re-enable the legacy shape so I can select "registration target 2" shape?
oh ok i found it, from Window option select Shapes and then Legacy Shapes and More... they'll be added back in the Custom Shapes tool...
I have photoshop cc 2021 and when I'm at the step to indent the sides by 70% (8:46) that's not an option. I've been trying to figure out how to indent the sides of the shape forever help :(
Is that field, grayed out ? If so, make sure the correct layer is active. Also, go to Image > Mode > RGB color, 8 bits/Channel.
@@BLTV_Photoshop the only two options I have are to adjust the star ratio or check a box saying "Smooth Star Indents"
exact same issue here, only seeing the same shape and path options menu I've seen for other tools

@@tnh9088 Thank you!!
so easy to follow. Best photoshop help ever
at 5:36 when I go to make a color overlay it changes the whole thing to pink not just the swirls
Is the blend mode, "Normal"?
it would be a great help if you could just tell me what is happening at 9:11 . in my photoshop at this point i am stuck , because in this point i am not seeing the dotted line for selection for shape.. could you tell me what will i do ??
Go to View > Show > Selection Edges.
I didnt have the option to choose symbols there were just import or copy the ones that already us there, but I found a flower I might use
Go to Window>Shapes. This will open another window on the side where you can click the hamburger menu and choose the option Legacy shapes and more. After that you can see all of them :))
How do I get those shapes? I don't have those shapes and can't find a free website that won't give my computer a bunch of viruses!
Go to windows, check the shapes option. on the new shape window that appears, go to more options(3 horizontal lines) choose legacy shapes and more

+ElizabethR1558 Is your Image Mode, RGB color? Go to Image > Mode > RGB color, 8 bits/Channel.
+Blue Lightning TV Thanks for the reply.
Yes, both RGB colour and 8 bits are ticked.

+ElizabethR1558 I'm sure the solution is super simple, but without seeing your PSD, it's difficult to pinpoint.
I couldnt find that symbols on my photoshop, where do i can download them?

I'm creating the star burst, but when I click the gear icon there is no star selection
Go to Window > Shapes > click the icon at the upper, right of the Shapes panel to open the fly-out list > "Legacy Shapes & More"
Hello Marty do u know why I can't see color box in color overlay plz help
THANK YOU SO MUUUCH!
WOW! Perfect, thx for ur work I love it ^^
Why do you choose shapes in pixels? Thank you.
I could have chosen shapes as well, however, since the photo is raster-based, I decided to make everything pixel-based.
Can i do this in photoshop cs4?
Awesome tutorial. Thank you :)
2022 here, not sure if the legacy shapes are gone but the folder is completely empty for me. Anyone else having this issue?
1) Go to "Window"
2) "Patterns"
3) Click the icon at the upper, right of the Patterns panel to open the fly-out list

The distort > twirl option is greyed out for me, and I'm using RGB, 8-bit, and even reset all my preferences. Is there anything I can do?
helpx.adobe.com/photoshop/kb/distort-filters-unavailable.html
At the beginning it doesn't let me select the "twirl" effect option.
Go to Image - Mode - RGB color, 8 bits/Channel
Thank you!!!
What is unconstrained option for?
"Unconstrained", means the shape won't be constrained to its original proportions.
@@BLTV_Photoshop thank you
Why wont it let me twirl the shape?
Make sure the correct layer is active. Also, go to Image > Mode > RGB color, 8 bits/Channel.
WHAT IS THAT INTRO SONG??? 😍😍😍

The problem could be one of many reasons. Sorry, but one would have to inspect your document to narrow it down.
@@BLTV_Photoshop
Ok. Thanks ;)
Maybe check the opacity or other settings on your pencil tool. I was having trouble here too, until I realized that my pencil was set to 28% opacity
@@catherinesollman5868 hi ;) i will, Thank you 👍
i don't have symbols as shapes
Go to windows, check the shapes option. on the new shape window that appears, go to more options(3 horizontal lines) choose legacy shapes and more.

pls more psych ^^
