good idea :) let me know if you have any questions

Only one filter was used btw - Neon Glow. The rest are blending modes, transform, and masking.

Heavy mouse wouldnt work... my muscles are extremely weak.. i think a giant touchpad/tablet would work nicely with me... if only i had the cash for one :(

oh and Firgs... your thingy looks overly complicated... the thingy i was thinking of was to cut up the bus into several layers the windows and all the metals and labels and cut the bus out of the background and then plop the flag into the painted layer that is left over...


A tablet would be good, if you can hold a pencil steady and draw straight lines on paper then it'll be just the same with a tablet. It is abit expensive, but look at Ebay after some cheap A4/A3 tablets, best is Wacom tablets. There may be some cheap second hand Wacom's there.

Blending modes are just different ways of displaying light through your layers.

Here is a site that might help you understand them better. http://www.photoshopgurus.com/tutorials/t010.html

Work through this, let me know if you have any questions.. then we can move on to masking. :)

Actually It's fine... You can get Photoshop on Amazon

But... Which one would be the best for me?

I don't need too much software, I'm only 9 so I'm not exactly going to start my own buisness yet :lol:

Some of the new ones are in the five hundreds... they're way too expensive...

I need something where I can change avatars, make my own... make logo's, design front covers and stuff

GIMP is a good free image editor... just google it...

http://cgi.ebay.com/NEW-FULL-VERSION-AD ... dZViewItem

100 dollars aint bad for 1000 dollars of software!
