textures

[ilovejohnny1984]

I have seen so many different textures for psp and ps how can I make my papers texturized like real scrapbooking sheets? I found i like a little texture for the pages they dont look so fake. Any ideas on where to get new textures or to make my pages look more real?

What I've done in the past is go out and take pictures of cement, wood, gravel, etc. and use those as textures. There are tons of tutorials on the net that show you how to do this for any version of PSP or PS.

Hope that helps :)

Another thing I've found that helps make them look more real is to up the smoothness on the texture. That way you get some relief on the page, but it's not too much relief. Catwoman is right, go out and take photos of things, use those as your textures! :)

I went on a cruise recently and found myself taking more pictures of tree bark, bamboo, wood sheds, and stucco buildings than actual sightseeing stuff!

I actually did a search online and found many sites that had tons of textures that can be used.

Yes you can find a lot of textures online but most are not for commericial use(if making kits to sell) only personal use. Deviant art has TONS of textures and brushes and some even for commercial use.

However taking pictures of your own probably would be the easiest way to get them. PSP and PSE both have textures in the programs as well.

Another thing to do if you have a flatbed scanner is scan stuff. I've scanned fabrics, the bottom of shoes, the speaker (to capture the dots on the screen), a towel...a variety of things that have texture. I've used the photo of my couch, a photo of the edge of a photo frame...the possibilities are endless!
