butterflyOriginal art/ Banner/ Header Tutorial
bg
If you are interested in creating a totally original banner or header then let's get started. First grab the background to the left. I created it at IM. Take it to IMAGE MAGICK at Net4 and put the URL where it says to. Hit View.
One of my favorite effects is wave. This requires a paramenter like 10x9. First number determines how deep the wave will cut into your image. The second number determines how far apart the wave pattern will be from each other.

Go to FX. Choose Wave and put 20x20 into the parameters. Go back and put in 20x5 in and wave again. The second wave is closer waves then the first time I waved the bg. You will see the results to the right.

plasma2
plasma3
This is optional. Go to Trasform and rotatle either left or right. This puts the wave on the sides.

Go to FX and put in a small parameter for implode. I used 3x1. then I negated it in enhance. You will see the example to the left.

Now go back to FX and put -200 into the parameters for swirl. The results are to the right.
swirl
explode
Yep that's right, back to FX and put in -3 for explode / implode. The results are to the left.
If you are happy with the results go to Resize and put the size you want it to be. I put 500x150. then you can annotate on it if you want. Or you can use tables for your message. The results are to the right.
