My icon was ugly...Srry but I tried this tut like 3 times and all icons got ugly.
And some steps aren't useful.
Émilie[info]mew_ichigo786 on August 1st, 2007 03:04 pm (UTC)
Sorry to hear that. All steps were useful for the icons I made with them. I did mention that you might have to do a few adjustments. It depends on what type of image your're using.
Danielle: Kristen[info]buffymars on January 19th, 2008 07:01 pm (UTC)
Did you try using the .psd? That's very helpful.

It's a lot of steps and work, but the colouring works really well for dark bases that has tinges of blue and red. Meming it! Thanx!

Good tutorial, I just had problems with the white areas in my icons turning an ugly grey color that wouldn't go away. After a few tweaks I came up with... this!

This is what I got.



I'm somewhat satisfied with the results, it could be better. But than again, I did skip one step b/c of laziness. lol =P

Thanks for tut, but I think step 3 is unnecessary.
