iPodize your picture!

[noroom]

Hey everyone! Inspired by the Anything Sells nowdays topic, I thought: hey, anyone with half decent photoshop skills can do that!

So I thought I could start a small competition. Take a picture of yours, and iPodize it!

I'll go first:

Original Pic

(yes, i was using a piece of bread as a puppet, but I was half drunk, so it's all good... :laugh: )

iPodized Pic

I had so much fun making this, I can't beleive it.

Now you show off your skills! :cool:

I just made the stuff in Photoshop.......

No stupid Vector program...

You have to be able to use the Extract filter... some history brush tool...

And then fill the layer with black...... :D :D

[betterthanyou]

You can use Photoshop to do the vectors. Yours looks alright but I think it would look better if properly vectored.

[NikhilVerma]

I didn't do any vectoring...

it was just brushing....

I could have made it look sharper... But smoother one looks really good....

[betterthanyou]

I didn't mean that you had used vectors. I simply added the properly because you could use vectors and have it look horrible depending on your level of expertise.

It looks pretty good but it would be simpler for most people to use vectors to obtain a nice smooth outline.

[IAIHMB]

Some good ideas, but I think they're looking a little less than amazing. Are you using a vector program (such as Illustrator or Fireworks)? If so you need to smooth out the vectors becuase it's messing up the fun. Nice job all the same.

Just wondering, how would one do so? I'm using the Macromedia MX 2004 trial if it matters. Thanks for any information. :D

[betterthanyou]

Open up Fireworks, load up a bitmap and grab the pen tool then simply trace as best you can. Some tools that helps alot: Modify -> Alter Path -> Simplify, especially if you want to use the vector path tool. Simple Pen tool is the way to go though.

[IAIHMB]

Thanks alot for the information! :D

But where did you get the iPod pic from? Cause it doesn't look like the one on Apple's site. or did you create it?

[noroom]

you have to create it with vectors.

what i did is take a pic of a zen and make a new vector layer on top of it. then just draw over the lines and in the end delete the original zen. tadaa! :D

.... :rolleyes:

iPods are so overrated. But their publicity campaign is kinda neat, so I thought I'd mimic it using a Creative Zen Micro instead :p

I'm completely in love with this little machine. I can't wait to get my hands on one of them! :D

That's really me in this ad! Original pic here.

[PKHelloNasty]

Here is my one and only attempt. :)

EDIT: To continue the vectorizing argument. If you don't know how to make a vector in Photoshop.. visit this website. Its overboard, but thats a good thing :)
