DGNOME-Fence (MacOSXBlue) by Archive
This picture was part of a GNOME/Ximian wallpaper collection which Imade last year. It shows a GNOME button on a brushed background. Some people asked me how to draw such a button and a "smooth" brushed metal picture. The technique behind doing a "smooth" brushed area in Gimp is quite simple: Fill a selection of your choice with a color, "Add Noise", "Treshold Alpha" with value 0 (this point is very important to get a "smooth" effect), and last but not least apply a "Motion Blur". Feel free to tune & tweak this short tutorial with things like: Clouds overlay, add gradients, add light effects, etc. Once I've got some more free time, I'd like to put a button tutorial/HOWTO online. Two different resolutions and two variations are provided. Author: Roman "star" Beigelbeck (roman_AT_gnome.org) |
