    Hello, for me, it isn't necessary to divide the OS Mac and Windows. I expect similar interfaces and functions. But one forum for one software would be better to handle. The Affinity Suite will increase. The number of users will increase. And therefore the number of posts will increase. Greetings Jack

    Hello fearofflying, I do this alway with layer masks. Click on layer mask. Fill is with a gradient white to black. White is transparent and nothing changes. Black hides the layer. Depending on your project, you need a white layer below. I used this in my tutorials. Ciao Jack

    Hi SurJones, I agree! There will be more software in the Affinity Suite and an increasing number of posts. Therefore it seems to be necessary having more categories. There was already a topic: klick for the topic: separate categories AP & AD Ciao Jack

    Good morning TinPianoMan, huuuaaaaa, 06.30 h in Berlin..... :blink:. It's difficult to answer, because I don't know, what do you do exactly with which software. So I will answer for Affinity Photo, but Affinity Designer works similar. If the dog is colored and you want it black & white: Adjustment layer "HSL", and then reduce the saturation to 0 If you need more an Illustration effect instead of a photo: Adjustment layer "threshold" To erase the white background: activate the original layer take the color picker and drag it onto the white until the color is chosen activate this color go to "selection-select the chosen color" then "backspace" or for more control click on mask and the whites will be erased and change to transparent Export as a png-file! Otherwise the tranparent will Change to white. Ciao Jack

    Salve Claudio, parlo soltanto un po di l'italiano... Una riflessione è uguale come un'ombra. Ho fatto un tutorial per fare 3 ombre in tedesco con titolare di sotto inglese. YouTube Tutorial La differenzia è: - fare una copia della selezione su un layer/livello nuovo "cmd & J" - prende la trasformazione alla sinistra e tirare giù o prende "selezione-specchiare 180° verticale" per esempio il resto è similare.

    Hi TinPianoMan, this is a nice effect and I will make a tutorial about that in future. Depending upon the picture, it will be easy or difficult. The easy way (but not the best): You need a texture of your cracks. You're right. It it possible with the build-in brushes. There are several grunge brushes. Make your texture on a layer over your photo, which you want to be effected. Set the blend mode to something like "multiply". You can mask out unwanted areas. But for a complex result, you also need to enforce the cracks with curves, add shadows/contours with dodge & burn, displace to the object .... Perhaps this helps. Ciao Jack

    Hi rondawoolgar, when you click the mask icon, the mask is usually white. That means transparent. Nothing changes to the layer. If the mask is black, all is hidden under the mask. So, there are different possibilities to fill the mask with black. At first activate the mask (not the layer): - "cmd & I": for invert. That will be the fastest way - "layer - invert" - paint bucket tool, select black, fill with black Now all is hidden under the mask. To reveal areas, paint with a white mask on the mask. Ciao Jack

    Hi, in diesem Affinity Photo Tutorial zeige ich einen dampfenden Gully-Deckel in einer dunklen Straße. Dabei wird Dampf erstellt. Die Methode bei Rauch wäre aber die gleiche. Es gibt viele Anwendungsmöglichkeiten, ganz nach Geschmack. Ich wünsche Euch viel Spaß. Ihr könnt mir Eure Ergebnisse und Ideen gerne posten. Ciao Jack Hi, in this Affinity Photo Tutorial, I show you a steaming manhole cover in a dark street. I create steam, but the method for smoke would be the same.. There are many possibilities for the application, like you want. I wish you fun. You can post your results and ideas. Ciao Jack YouTube-Tutorial: Dampf / Rauch - steam / smoke https://youtu.be/lzHKy2TFhhM

    Hi Raymondo, I think, you're right. This method doesn't work well. But there are other methods. I provided a tutorial. Perhaps it helps or gives you another idea. YouTube-Tutorial: Light beams Ciao Jack

    Hello Hugo, I know, what you mean. You are right. This would be a good feature. I tried to create DVD-covers. But I gave it up. There I need exact measurements. Ciao Jack

    Yes, but I didn't found a square shape for the already installed brushes. Perhaps, you need to install a brush (www.brusheezy.com) or others. Ciao Jack

    Additional announcement: This tutorial is a variation of color splash. I have some more ideas, embedding the color splash effect in a different matter in future. Thank for your comments, also via YouTube, Twitter and directly. Ciao Jack

    Hi lamayer, for a post, it's too much. There are many possibilities and there are depending on which photo you have and what action is to have. But it is a good idea for a tutorial. I think, I will produce one. But give me some weeks. Ciao Jack

    One more announcement to the topic "double exposure": Some of my followers had the wish of a tutorial with this effect. This effect offers many possibilities and methods. I decided to create one in a little different way. But I have ideas for the future. So I'll produce different kinds of using this popular effect. Ciao Jack

    Hi Jackamus, I don't find it for vectors, but for brushes: Click on the "brush tool" or press "B". The context menu bar appears. Click on "more". The brush setting window appears. Click on "dynamics". On the right of each parameter, you find a drop down menu, where you can choose "pressure". And nearby, you find the curves symbol. There you can choose the sensibility of the pressure. Perhaps it may help, when you make this shape as a selection to protect the outer edge, you can brush with a calm hand the inner stroke... Ciao Jack P.S.: Oh, sorry. You use AD....., my mistake
