When I added a buy me a coffee featured on my blog I decided to use an image I had done when I was showing my cousin how to do the Magic effect. Instead of using a hat I used a coffee cup and the process is basically the same, however this time I will explain it in more details.

Maybe you should put some effort into figuring it out on your own. That really helps learning. Why not be thankful that the Abduzeedo team posts stuff like this to help at all?

How can you figure it out when you don't know what to do? The purpose of a "TUTORIAL" is to teach you, not guesswork you idiot.

I'm sick and tired of seeing people like you in the comment sections of tutorials like this. If you know even the very basics of photoshop, completing this tutorial is far from guesswork. This would not be an easy 10 step tutorial if he had to explain in detail where each tool was and exactly what it did. Anyway, from what I can see, he practically does that! If you can't figure it out from the steps given above you shouldn't even be attempting to use photoshop much less ranting about how much this sucks. It only sucks to you because you're an idiot. For someone who uses photoshop on a daily basis tutorials like this are an amazing time saver. If I know what I want something to look like I can see various techniques without spending hours upon hours trying to do something some one else has already figured out. I appreciate very much the work people like this do. There always some crying little bitch whining about how the tutorial didn't work for them because it didn't get specific enough for their lack of knowledge. Just fuck off you dumbshit. Seriously, if this simple lighting effect tutorial has you up in arms about how difficult it is; why are you even using photoshop? I know his post was like 4 months ago, but people like this just piss me off. Fucking idiot

Sweet Cookies Typography in Pixelmator


Playing with text is one of the coolest things to exercise your skills with any software, at least in my opinion. You can try to make fire with the word fire or water effects with the word water. In my case today I will show you how to create a sweet cookie effect using Pixelmator. In this tutorial we will show you how to create a nice text effect using basic filters and some stock images. The result is really good for the amount of time required to achieve it.
