With GIMP2, the UnderWater colour is easy, and putting in the picture is easy, and you can see how I made it all over in one square. I can make letters BIG
and slowlyget smallerand smaller.
But im still not good at animating. Could you help me or find a tutorial for animating? If I NEED Photoshop, tell me what version and ill find a torrent.

I editied this one.

I put in the letters, fixed up soem corners etc. But, I messed up "Snake" in the letters...

gimp is OK but photoshop is much better, as for tutorials, PM me on planetrenders.net my name is Five-0 (also add me) they have a ton of tutorials for beginners if you get photoshop (they have a few for gimp, but not many)

Just keep exploring new tools and techniques by yourself.... That's what I did, I think the best way to learn in photo shop is by self-teaching yourself. If you take tutorials or whatnot, you don't really learn the concept behind certain tools and techniques, you just know how to make them happen. Just try incorporating new blending options, filters, gradients, and whatnot into your work, and you'll gradually become better and better as you begin to recognize and utilize photo shop in various fashions. (I use Photoshop CS4, CS2 or CS3 work just as well.)

As for animating, I tend to stay clear of that. :s

this is true, teaching yourself is the best way...watch youtube tutorials on different effects....learn how to size things to a point where it looks gd and placement in the best part. dont have random shit everywhere. use photoshop. it shits on competition..
