  1. Whew, this is a looooooooooooong tutorial. I followed it and once you get into all the layers, it is amazing what you can pull out of the other end. Thanks!

  2. This looks horrible, most of them has said it to be beautiful, but very frankly it seems like everything has been forced upon to put together without matching itself.
    Art is not a mere claustrophobic thing, it should be simple but elegant. There are many brilliant Photoshop manipulation which looks beautiful, true many things have been imposed but there is a perfect balance in them. I am very sorry, that this manipulation is not impressive nor very attractive, mere imposing of glitters or emphasising of too many characters with rainbow colours will not make everything beautiful, hoping to get more creative and good manipulative PS from you.

  3. Great job on this! You made something that is usually pretty confusing very simple and easy to understand. I LOVE your tutorial.

  4. I love your work, how to look like, I spent a long time learning PS, but do not produce good works, I would like to chat with you, but I can't speak English well, Hello, friend.

  5. I would like to know if there is a difference with the photoshop version your using and adobe photoshop elements 10? I was trying to follow this step by step but my version is different please help.
