Out of Bounds

Postby Joyce B. » Tue Sep 21, 2004 11:12 pm

Seymore was nice enough to start a thread on a new technique called Out of Bounds over at Smooth's Flip Themes Forum. http://greatest.com.au/phpBB2/ You will find it under "Photo Gallery - New Photo". Here is my sample. http://www.scrapbook-bytes.com/gallery/showphoto.php?photo=37952&sort=2&cat=500&page=1 We're having lots of fun. Come and join us if you want to give it a try and share your results.

8) Peace
Joyce

We call this technique "popouts" in Photoshop. It is really fun and easy to do. No disrepect to Seymore or Joyce, but if anyone would like the technique for Photoshop or Photoshop Elements in the E-Book Systems Forum, I would be happy to post it. If you have upgraded to PaintShop Pro, the technique should be the same.

Here are a couple samples. Notice the shadows don't appear around the item that is popped out except for the actually popout and the frame around.

It works with almost any object:

I'm interested as well, Sharon! Neat stuff!

Because alas, you must join the other forum to see the other examples. And btw, the link is broken at this writing.

Sharon,

I've done this as well, but, I didn't know there was a technique in Photoshop for doing it. Could save me a bunch of time!! (some already wasted figuring out how to do this manually! LOL)

Can you post it please?

Ron,

That's a pretty stunning signature you have there! As well as an interesting Avatar!

Wow, bet that took some interesting programming to achieve! Care to explain how you did that?

Here are the links to the tuts for the out-of-bounds, popouts, or 3D pics wihch ever you choose to call them.

I try and keep my posts on this forum to FA and FP, as this seems to be the usual content on the forum.

The pics are very easy and fun to do. If anyone is interested, I will post my pic here.

HI Seymore,

In this section, under Image Editors, there are never enough posts. Just seems to end up that way, so, your additions are excellent.

It would be great if you would post, Thanks!!

Here is my example of a 3D, out-of-bounds, or popup picture made using Photoshop 7. I did not have access to the tuts when I made this. I did it the hard way, by expermenting :lol: I am sure the tuts will help me refine the techniques.

That's some pretty cool stuff. Really nice effect.

Mike, just playing around with the sig/avatar thingy. It won't stay, I even find it annoying (a tad too large), LOL. I will refine it and make it a bit smaller, etc....

Basic Pop-Out (3D) Tutorials for PS Elements and PS CS

Thanks for the links. I haven't had time to do more that just skim - They look really interesting and hope I have time to try them on the weekend. I loved your 3D picture - It's great!!

The two I am posting are more basic, I think. When I looked through them this morning, I saw that I did a sloppy job with cleaning up the screen captures last night :oops: . I would appreciate feedback from anyone who has time to try them out. Please let me know if I have made any mistakes in language, left out something, or whatever. I first tried to post the actual tutorials on the forum, but that didn't work out very well. So, I ended up posting them on my website as html pages, one for PhotoShop Elements and another for PhotoShop CS. Both versions have a separate Adobe PDF file that can be downloaded and printed, so people don't have to sit online and read. Each pdf is ~700k.

Basic Technique for Pop-Outs - PhotoShop Elements v.2

Basic Technique for Pop-Outs - PhotoShop CS

This bouquet was picked just for Seymore :D

I hope the tutorials are useful
