0 NikhilVerma Share Posted February 11, 2005 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 Link to post Share on other sites
0 betterthanyou Share Posted February 11, 2005 You can use Photoshop to do the vectors. Yours looks alright but I think it would look better if properly vectored. Link to post Share on other sites
0 NikhilVerma Share Posted February 11, 2005 I didn't do any vectoring... it was just brushing.... I could have made it look sharper... But smoother one looks really good.... Link to post Share on other sites
0 betterthanyou Share Posted February 11, 2005 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. Link to post Share on other sites
0 IAIHMB Share Posted February 11, 2005 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. 585441805[/snapback] Just wondering, how would one do so? I'm using the Macromedia MX 2004 trial if it matters. Thanks for any information. :D Link to post Share on other sites
0 betterthanyou Share Posted February 11, 2005 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. Link to post Share on other sites

0 galoosh33 Share Posted February 11, 2005 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? Link to post Share on other sites
0 noroom Author Share Posted February 12, 2005 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 Link to post Share on other sites
