hiya! no question is ever silly! i def still struggle with this from time to time

to make it a little easier for yourself i would suggest making sure your gifs are the same length. (if one is shorter then you'll need to cut down the longer gif)

all you need to do is once you've opened the template in photoshop ensure the timeline is activated (windows > timeline) and in timeline you should see the below screenshot:

you want to open the folder so you're able to see all the content. from there all you need to do is drag each element in the folder to match the length of your gif

i didn't save them because they were literally made in 2 seconds. use a gradient fill layer set to color blend mode with whatever color scheme you have, white text with black outline and inner shadow and drop shadow goes above the gradient, fill text with white outline and inner shadow goes below the gradient, don't go too crazy on your psd (also below the gradient). adjust text styles listed as necessary depending on the size of your text/image. will also just drop a psd i once again made in 2 seconds lol

The ‘cat’ command is a powerful tool in Linux that can be used to perform a variety of tasks related to managing and manipulating files. From displaying file contents to concatenating multiple files, the ‘cat’ command is an essential tool for any Linux user. In this comprehensive guide, we’ll explore the various options and syntax available for the ‘cat’ command, as well as tips and tricks for…

*     hi there! i don’t mind at all, so please don’t hesitate to ask. just know that sometimes it might take some time for me to explain cause english is not my first language and i get a little overwhelmed trying to explain myself :) but i’ll try my best to give you a simple, yet detailed, explanation on how i do it. 

step 01. the key for high quality pngs is: high quality pictures. i never use images smaller than 500 x 500 pixels cause they tend to look blurry once you sharpen them. i usually go for the biggest pictures i can find, which is pretty easy when using google. if you already know what you’re looking for all you have to do is: 

sumin dispatch photoshoot > search tools > size > big (or something like that, just choose the biggest option without putting the exact dimensions if that makes sense?) > copy the picture and paste it on a new ps canvas.

step 02. resizing your images is a super important step. when doing it you don’t want them to distort cause it can lead to them looking, once again, blurry. while selecting the layer of your image you want the transform controls to be visible (example), then you need to click the little square on any top corner of your pictures and, while pressing alt + shift, drag the corner inwards. it will start resizing your picture! just like that, so it’s on you to decide how small or big you want it to be. just know that it’s really important to decide the size or go a little bigger, cause dragging it outwards or making it bigger will kill your pixels. we don’t want that!

step 03. now that you have your desired size it’s time to sharpen. yes, before erasing the background. i do that so the outline of my pngs are super clean and i don’t add unwanted pixels when sharpening. idk if it actually helps in any way but i find that doing it this way is better for me.

step 04. removing the background is the next step. i don’t really have a tutorial or any tricks for this cause i just use the polygonal lasso tool, zoom in on the picture and trace a silhoutte around the body by hand. you can do it however you want! 

step 05. and finally all there is to do is add a coloring. but remember to avoid using layers with color opacities or anything like that cause it can leave a grey-ish layer around your png if you’re not careful with it. i have a tutorial somewhere that teaches you how to deal with that problem, so you can use that too!

Tutorial: Como delinear/traçar textos no Photoshop

Olá, esse é o primeiro tutorial nesse novo blog e meu terceiro por aqui no Tumblr; cr

Vou mostrar um truque para substituir as fontes “outline” que são o traçado no formato da fonte. Já fiz um lista de recomendação com 12 fontes desse estilo aqui.

Programa de edição: Photoshop CS6 (que eu uso);

Dificuldade: fácil.

Então, vamos lá!

01. Abra o Photoshop, e digite o seu texto.

02. Escolha a camada de texto que você quer transformar em traço. Click com o botão esquerdo do mouse e selecione “Opções de mesclagem…”.

03. Ou você pode apenas clicar em “Fx” (fica na parte inferior da lateral esquerda) que vai aparecer a mesma opção (não tenho ideia do porquê, mas não consegui tirar print para mostrar direitinho).

04. Na barra direita de “Estilo de camada”, selecione “Traçado” e configure como desejar. Em estrutura: “tamanho” é a grossura que o traçado vai ficar.

05. Vá em “Opções Mescl.: Personaliz.” no topo da barra direita e em, “Opacidade de Preench.:”, coloque 0%.

06. E, pronto. Seu texto traçado está feito.

Vou deixar um exemplo de como você pode usar em suas edições (além de como fiz no cabeçalho dessa postagem).

Fiz uma "sombra" com a fonte duplicada em branco e movi um pouco para o lado oposto a fonte traçada do da branca, sem muito segredo.

Espero que tenham gostado e que tenha sido útil para vocês.
