GivingTuesday Roundup: Digging Parallax Design? 14 Tutorials to Boost Your Business!

The term Parallax originated from Greek “Parallaxis”  which essentially means an “alteration.” To make things clear, in web design, it refers to an illusion of depth created by animating altering layers of images and keeping the foreground images faster than the ones at the background.

 

Hispanic, Caucasian and Afro-American – The Design Gap

As a business owner, if you’ve never had the chance to work with a graphics or logo designer, chances are you’re at odds so as to where you should start.

Photoshop Eye Effects #1

A reader from the Photoshop 911 forums writes in to ask about blending two images into one -- writing:

I'm trying to create a nice graphic with these two images: (samples provided) and I want #2 to go over the eye to create a cool eye-design effect but I don't know what the heck to do. I already know how to erase the background from the #2 image and everything but when I paste it over top of the #1 image all I know to do is try and change the blending options which does not work, it just looks crappy. Can anyone provide me with some help? I want it to look really neat, like the #2 design is actually part of the eye!

Backgrounds: Monochrome, Patterned

Fill layer background A reader in the Photoshop 911 Forums posted the image above asking how the effect was accomplished. It's a hockey scene with a player lifted from the background, highlighted with a white feathered rim-lighting effect. The background itself was covered with a blue and black pattern giving it a sort of vague looking venetian blinds sort of effect. This is fairly easy to do in all versions of Photoshop and Photoshop Elements. I'll show you the extended layers version, not using anything fancy so that it goes way back to version 4.

Isolating the subject

I don't have a hocky picture, but since the holidays are just around the corner, I'll use this nativity scene for my subject. First you'll want to isolate your subject. It doesn't matter if it's from the same image, or a different image, the steps are the same, you'll have to cut it out. Using the Lasso tool or the Pen tool, which ever your program has, get started.
