A flash using masking

I made this flash piece for the header in my web assignment. I have just discover how to make images and text appear like being scanned progressively. I used a shape to mask the text and the man. Than I make the mask bigger using shape tween and I have the result like this. I like this effect.

Shelly Allgegro Script font

This is a script font that was created beautifully. I can feel like it is written by a very artistic typographer. Detail about this font can be found here and download free here.
These are some example of this font.

My new web layout


This is a web layout I made based on a web tutorial. I'm still working on it to make it my own. This can be my personal website or the template for my blogger. There still a lot of things to do before this website to be actually up and running. This layout used a analogous color scheme. (I think I need to check if the scheme is right!). I leave some white space at the middle layer (above the "Article" layer) for the design to breath and some at the footer. At the beginning, I intended to let the layout fill the screen with no space on the left or right, but when I finish the layout, I think it kinda hard to breath and too tight, so I leave some space there. Actually, on medium resolution screen, there would be no space, but on high resolution screen like 1280 x 800 or above, there should be left and right margin, therefore make it easier to read and viewers feel better.

Photoshop Blending Practice



This is 2 of my experiment using blending mode in Photoshop. The first one was created as similar as possible to the tutorial on AIRC website by Diane Miller but not using the technique she used. They were just overlay the text layer to create historical feeling. The second image was made to feel like the Chinese text was engraved by hand.
