New Shiny Smiley video

[sharlmitch]

Matt,

I really like your new video but you forgot to show us how to do the teeth! Maybe it's a no brainer, but I don't know how it's done. Although I think I have a brain! :eek: :D

Sharon

[kimi_boo]

Hi Sharon, there is one called "whiten teeth" in the subscriber videos. Is that what you were hoping for??

[Wendy]

Hi Sharon ...

There are several way you can do this ... here is one:

Just create a layer above the mouth layer and call it "teeth"
choose black as your foreground colour and select a small hard brush

Switch on the grid View>Grid to use as a guide and zoom in close on your image

All you have to do to make the straight line of the tooth is:

Single click the mouse at the top of the mouth
then hold down shift and single click at the bottom of the mouth. Elements will then draw a straight line between the two points (use the grid to get the top and bottom clicks in line :) )

Just do that for each tooth line ... you can tidy it up with the eraser if you go slightly over the edge and if the effect looks too strong when you have finished then just lower the opacity of the layer. :)

Wendy
EDIT ... If you activate the mouth selection (Control Click on the layer thumbnail in the layers palette Mac Command Click) then the line will stay within the mouth.

[sharlmitch]

Thanks Wendy,

I'll give it a try! :)

Kimi,
No, there is a new one in the video section for Similey Faces.

Sharon

Edit...Thanks Wendy, here's my try! This was fun!!!

[Wendy]

Sharon ...

Do let us see your smilie when you have finished it :)

Wendy

[kimi_boo]

Sharon, Matt has one in the Video Archives. Kinda down on the left.

I'm sure Wendy's tut will work but sometimes it is easier for me to understand if I see it.

[NMarti]

I posted in my thread I started but it got lost. So - I'll repost it here.:p My first attempt....

[mottcru]

Nancy - Love it!! Made me giggle!! I have an idea for this one, but will be gone for the weekend. I'll post mine on Monday.

[Wendy]

Kimi ...

Sharon is looking to put teeth on the smilie in the new video not whiten someones teeth ... so I think that you are talking at cross purposes :D

I have added an image so that you can see how I did it :)

Wendy

[Jodi Frye]

No teeth to deal with :)

I redid mine and took off the tongue (I was in a bad mood last night :p )

Wendy

[Wendy]

Nancy ...

Oh I liked the tongue ... I once did one with a tongue. I'll see if I can find it :)

Wendy

[mom to 4]

those are great! Did I miss a new tutorial! I better go check!

[NMarti]

I like that one Wendy! Wonder why my smiley's teeth don't show in the small thumb? Oh well - maybe he's escaped from the challenge where he was working on that moonshine.:p :D

[Wendy]

Nancy ...

I have noticed that thin lines don't always show up on the thumbnails ... :)

Wendy

[jo]

Nancy, Jodi, and Wendy -- what fun!

[NMarti]

Okay - It's official!!!!

I NEED A LIFE!

[Jodi Frye]

Wendy, oh what a wicked little smilie ! Looks like he's about to do something naughty.

Nancy, too cool ! Funny, the one I had posted originally started out with two as well but I tossed the idea...now I know why...just couldn't put it together like you did...bravo !

[Jodi Frye]

This is how my stomach feels today...ate something last night that near killed me...too much corn on the cob !!!!

http://www.pixentral.com/hosted/1x3wWdG6AM1bP8d33RUOabeklAVQ1_thumb.jpg (http://www.pixentral.com/show.php?picture=1x3wWdG6AM1bP8d33RUOabeklAVQ1)

[NMarti]

Jodi
Me too! We had Red Lobster last night but I have had a headache and cramping upset stomach all day. He looks pretty much how I feel.

[Wendy]

Nancy ... Love those two !!!

Jodi ... Oh that is so scary. :eek:

Wendy

[mrod]

Well. My daughter, age 7, walked by just as I was looking at the video, and thought she might like to try her hand at one. So...below is her version. I helped her pick the appropriate tools, and showed her how to use them, but she did all the actual work. After awhile, she did a great job at remembering different shortcuts, like ctrl+E, ctrl+d, & ctrl+j.

We left out a couple steps because she wanted to. And, she wanted to add a bow. And brown eyes. And no teeth. :)

Mike

[mrod]

And my niece, age 12, made one as well. Same process as with my daughter.

Mike

[Wendy]

Mike ..

They are both so good ... and I love the bows.

Nice to see the work of the next generation of Elements users :)

Wendy

[Grant]

This is how my stomach feels today...ate something last night that near killed me...too much corn on the cob !!!!


Jodi

I am so sorry to hear that your tummy is upset but is it really possible to eat too much corn on the cob? :confused:

--

[Grant]

So - I'll repost it here.:p My first attempt....



Oh my that reminds me it is happy hour at our house so off to make Pina Coladas :)

--

[sharlmitch]

Oh, those are are all soooo cute!!!!!

OK, I'm off to make mine!!!:)

Sharon

[Jodi Frye]

OMG...Grant, send me one...right now !!!!! Just try not to get it in my keyboard please :) ...Oh, is that with crushed ice ?? drooling here

re; corn on cob, yes, yes it is possible to eat too much...I think it was on account of all the butter and salt i added to it ;)

[Jodi Frye]

Mike, you really are a good guy aren't ya ? :) Good to know.

Those drawings are fabulous !

[NMarti]

Mike
Those are wonderful! I'm glad to see the Future Elements of America club at work!;)

Pina Coladas! Oh I want one so bad.......

[Grant]

Jodi

I have one aside in the freezer for you as I type. Not sure what you mean by crushed ice but for a tall one i add a couple of cups of ice into the blender and let it just do its thing until I end up with one of those oh so smooth freezies that give you brain cramps if you gulp it.

--

[Jodi Frye]

one of those oh so smooth freezies

Oh yes that is what i meant.

I'll be there in about 6 hours, or not :(

[Grant]

Nancy

You have it the way wrong round ... it should be ... I am so wanton bad when I have one. ;)

--

[mrod]

Mike, you really are a good guy aren't ya ?

Well, Jodi, my kids are still at the age where they think so. I'm loving these years. And most of the time my wife thinks so...at least, I haven't broken any car windows lately...;)

Oh, and I must tell you all, my daughter and niece loved reading your nice comments about their smiley faces (although I had a tough time explaining the rampant drinking...:twisted:). They are convinced they are now famous. So cute.

Mike

[Jodi Frye]

Mike, well they are famous...don't they know that this site is viewed by more Elements users than any other site in the world ?? Now that's special :)

[Grant]

...don't they know that this site is viewed by more Elements users than any other site in the world ??

Oh my GOD I don't think I will ever post again this is almost too much pressure ....

--

[tfry]

Jodi,

That is just great! You guy is so expressive.

Ok now i have to go try one.. see ya in a couple of weeks :D

[Pauline]

Mike those are both terrific entries from your daughter and niece. Enjoy the loving now. In a few years she'll only want you for your credit card in the mall. :D (Okay, I confess.........we just got back from the mall with our 15 year old daughter.......I dread the next visa bill! Of course I think her father spent just as much.......they are so much alike. I know I'm whining. I guess it's because I didn't get anything. :( No good PS books in that mall.)

Nancy love your smiles. I never thought I would think of a smilie as cheesy, but your guy........well he's the definition of cheesey!!!

Jodi yours are terrific too!! The water surfing guy is my favourite. Great reflections!! Corn guy is cute too. I hope you are feelilng better soon.

[Jodi Frye]

Grant, ya right...as if you didn't know. AND your Challenge site is the most popular as well...that one has YOUR NAME ON IT !!! Stand tall dear. :)

Pauline, LMAO...' Corn Guy ' that is too funny. I did another and worked on it for a couple of hours...but it looked better in the trash can. I'm taking a chance at eating now...will let you know how that works out :rolleyes:

[Grant]

Grant, ya right...as if you didn't know. AND your Challenge site is the most popular as well...that one has YOUR NAME ON IT !!! Stand tall dear. :)



Oh My it is??

The truth is at one point I never thought of it being very popular. That was until my web hostess contacted me to say how much she was relieved to see what my site was about. She went on to tell my that the only site that got, almost, as many hits as mine was a now defunct porn site. So I wasn't sure to be happy or concerned.

--

[Jodi Frye]

:eek: Challenge vs Porn ? Hmmm, now that's something to ponder over... No, it isn't. That was a fluke.

Ok, enough smilies !! last one...

[Grant]

Jodi

it was just that, way back when, there is a certain curiosity that made those type of sites popular. Now it makes me take heart glad that, now days, my type of site is more popular. Restores my faith in humans

--

[tfry]

Here's my first shot at it :)

[Jodi Frye]

Tami that's really good !! Looks like he's ready to squish a bug. Boy, 2 weeks sure did go by fast. Where does time go ? :)

[Wendy]

Tami ...

Oh nice one !! :)

Wendy

[tfry]

Thanks Jodi :)
I have such a terrible time doing stuff in Illustrator I just figured this was going to be the same way, but I was very surprized.. Now to be more creative with some little guys,since I've got the basics down, I just love the ones you've done, especially the surfer guy, now that's creative!

[Jodi Frye]

Tami, I know he's gettiong the 'surfer guy' name thanks to Pauline but he's more like being carried away by flooding :) Seemed to fit the season around here.

Oh I have to get back to Illustrator as well. Went to check to see if the site was up yet and I got ' Paul was here ' on the page. Who da heck is Paul ? Anyways, I know I'm going to have to add to my internet account to suscribe...hope it aint going to be too rich.

[tfry]

Hehe Paul, is our IT Superman, he's the one I bug at 2a.m. when the site breaks :D
He is also the procurer of all internet sites and the Paul was here is a page holder, I didn't even know the website addy had been published....guess I need to get out of my office more:)

[NMarti]

Pauline
Thanks - I think :confused: Yeah - he was supposed to be a cheesy lounge lizard type. :D

Grant
Thanks - this is the most read site and now everyone knows I'm wanton bad when I drink. Come to think of it - how did you know?:eek: :D

[NMarti]

Hey speaking of drinking - we were I'm sure of it - I have an excellent receipe for any of you who have ever visited the TGI-Fridays chain and love thier Jack Daniels sauce. I found a copycat recipe that is EXACT! I know cause that's what we had for dinner tonight - sesame chicken tenders in Jack Daniels dipping sauce. It was SOOOOO good! It works great for shrimp, as a basting sauce on grilled meats, just about anything. By the way - I love licking the bowl too.:p :D Anyone want it check it out here:

[GaryK]

Mike

A little late, but tell the kiddies to keep up the great work :D



Nancy

Fess up, you really didn't cook any chicken to dip did you?? ;) ;)

[NMarti]

Gary
I'm sure I did but I'm still licking my fingers!:p

[Tom K]

I seriously doubt that Matt had any idea of the fun he was going to
start when he made a smiley.. This has been one great thread. also
learned a new recipe for the barbi.. Thanks for the laughs.:D :D Tom

[GaryK]

You can't remember if you did ??? :eek::eek: :D :D

[GaryK]

Matt

What's with the new blinking mouse circle thing.... new effect????? :D

[Pauline]

Well I haven't had time to make a smiley, but what I did today might make you smile!

http://www.photoshopelementsuser.com/gallery/view_img.php?id=9756

This is for the Friday challenge of cracking an egg. I already did one but remembered seeing this somewhere and well..............I just had to give it a shot. Not perfect, but it was a lot of fun! Maybe tomorrow I will find time for Mr. Smiley.

[NMarti]

Gary
One thing we did find... it's better if you add a liiiiiiiitttttlllleeee more Jack than the recipe calls for.

[Grant]

Grant
Thanks - this is the most read site and now everyone knows I'm wanton bad when I drink. Come to think of it - how did you know?

Oh Nancy ... You can't remember :eek: ... that is so sad :( ... and I though we danced so well together :twisted:

--

[NMarti]

Grant
Umm... well .... :o were we eating chicken strips with Jack dipping sauce? I must have ate a lot.:p Wow - I didn't even know I could dance.:D

[sharlmitch]

Here's my smiley!
How do you get the little thumbnails?

http://www.pixentral.com/show.php?picture=1ovULASyitQtKzVkTMceB4Nb5NOWw

Grant, I'll take my Pina Colada now! Thank you very much!

Nancy, the chicken strips and dipping sauce sounds good too! Hope you left some for me! Yum!!!

Sharon

[billz]

I think I'm doing something wrong, but did someone say chicken strips?

Bill

[mrod]

Nice work on the tongue, Bill. And the bulging eyes. Very realistic. Almost looks like a photograph.

I knew Portland was a weird place...:p

Mike

[Jodi Frye]

Pauline, that is freekin' awesome !!! Looks so real ! Well done gal...you are da best !!!!

[Jodi Frye]

Sharon. that is really nice !~ I love it !

[Wendy]

OK ...

Its official ... I'm hooked :)

Wendy

[Grant]

Grant, I'll take my Pina Colada now! Thank you very much!



Sharon

The blender is all fired up and ready to go ... but today it may be margaritas, you know "that frozen concoction that make you hang on".


--

[Grant]

Nancy

A while back we had a huge Rib-fest a few miles from here. Both the number of contestants and the ribs were huge. One of the booths/contestants was the Jack Daniel's team... yup all the way from Tennessee. The had a special sauce made from Jack. Also, just before you got your ribs they asked you if you wanted the SPECIAL special sauce. Of course I said OK and they spritzed the ribs with Jack right out of the bottle. Man it sure made a man really enjoy licking his fingers!

--

[Jodi Frye]

smilies,tongues and Pina Coladas...what a wonderful way to start the day ! God forgive us ;)

Wendy, that's a fun one !

DSL guy just left and he gave me a new modem...I'm good to go ! :)

[Pauline]

Jodi, glad all your computer problems are now solved!!
My daughter's boyfriend was so thrilled when I handed him the picture. I was pretty pleased with how it turned out. It really was tough making that egg blend in with the head, but I was happy with the end results. It's kind of sick, I know, but it's kind of cool too!! He had his 5 year old niece with him and she really started laughing when she saw it and calling him Uncle Egghead. (he has all kinds of other ideas he wants to me to now and one of them is to make him and my daughter black! Does that mean I have to change his pretty blue eyes to brown? :) )

[NMarti]

Grant
I'll bet it did! We ate at TGI Friday's on Monday and I just couldn't get it out of my head. I searched for copy cat recipes and found several but none seemed quite right. This one did and when I cooked it up it clearly was dead on the money! It is definitely finger licking good!


Pauline
That is awesome!!!! Wow - you really nailed it. It would be great for one of those "this is your brain on drugs" ads.

[Jodi Frye]

Oh ya ' Egg Head' will be something that will take some time to outgrow...5 year olds remember everything ! Too funny...

Nancy, maybe Pauline can replace that egg with dirt and marijane...then he would truly be a Pot Head :D ....and that spoon could be replaced with a 'don't walk on the grass' sign.

[lindajay]

Okay -- had to try it! Thought, since we just returned from the land of midnight sun, I'd do an Eskimo smiley. Here you go! (These are fun!)

http://www.pixentral.com/hosted/1pJThyJydreiSrg0YN6szgWzTpP4RA_thumb.jpg (http://www.pixentral.com/show.php?picture=1pJThyJydreiSrg0YN6szgWzTpP4RA)

[Pauline]

Well here's my guy. It was kind of a fun creation.

[NMarti]

Okay - these are just too fun!

Tami - great one
Wendy - love the tongue
Jodi - is that your offspring? He looks familiar....
Linda - he looks a bit frozen
Sharon - good job!
Edit - Pauline you were posting as I was typing - great job! He's cool!

Matt did you have any idea your smiley would take on such "character"?:D

[sharlmitch]

Linda,

That is so cute, I love the snowflakes on the tongue!!!

Thanks Matt these are so much fun!

Pauline, I love your fun in the sun guy too! I guess you were posting at the same time I was.

Sharon

[Pauline]

Nancy and Jodi, no way I could use Johnny as a model for any kind of drug ad or anything to do with really frying his brains as he is dead against not only drugs, but smoking and alcohol also!! He's a great kid and just said today that he even refuses to buy cigarettes for his Mother because he wants her to quit smoking and he also doesn't want anyone to think he does!! He's 20 and of course underage kids want him to buy smokes for them. They are asking the wrong person. (now where can I find another boy like this for my other daughter???)

[NMarti]

Pauline
You are lucky - kids like that are hard to find. Does he have a brother?:D

[sharlmitch]

Pauline,

I think your fun in the sun guy and my sun girl need to get tgether, they would make a great couple! Especially if he's anything like Johnny!

I still can't figure out how to do those thumbnails.

Sharon

[Pauline]

If he did I'd scoop him up. He does have a sister who is 4 years older than him and completely opposite........enough said!

[Bayla]

I still can't figure out how to do those thumbnails.
Sharon

Sharon,

Here's something I posted last week that may be of use...I added a red arrow to my picture to demonstrate...


http://www.photoshopelementsuser.com/forum/showpost.php?p=123204&postcount=30

Bayla

[Wendy]

Linda ... Oh that is a good one. It would make a great Chritmas Card :)

Pauline ... Cute idea ... nice work on the smilie ...

Wendy

[sharlmitch]

Thanks Bayla,

I did it! :D

Grant, I need that Margarita now, please!!!

Sharon

[Grant]

"Oh Sharon You are such a a foxie smilie, do you come here often?" he says as he pushed the frosty Margarita towards her.

--

[sharlmitch]

Oh Grant! You are so funny! :)

Thanks for the margarita, it's great!

Sharon

[Wendy]

Sharon ...

Wow .. I love yours :)

Wendy

[Grant]

Back off Wendy I saw her first! :)

Pauline ..that is a crazy,mad magazine type of photo. Good luck
with the maybe son-inlaw, if it comes to that..:p Tom

[Grant]

Bayla

Cool image! Now we have return of the friendly killer tomato.

Bill

[NMarti]

Hey Bill
zip on over to post #19 and rescue my poor smiley maiden from the lounge lizard. He looks like more of her type.:p :D

[Grant]

the lounge lizard


Now that is a challenge who amongst you will be the fist t create a smilie lounge Lizard ... I can near the brains churning now ...

--

[billz]

Geez Grant, I don't know ..... What would one look like??

And the joke is "Pull my finger ... please.

[NMarti]

Grant
here is a quickie - a 70's lounge lizard :D

http://www.pixentral.com/hosted/1MZx0t38T1Fqqh7hHKbvGXOIRfbgG1_thumb.jpg (http://www.pixentral.com/show.php?picture=1MZx0t38T1Fqqh7hHKbvGXOIRfbgG1)

[billz]

Nancy - Even a gold tooth! Fantastic. All the reasons to be glad the 70's are gone rolled into one image.

Bill

[Jodi Frye]

Wait, Nancy i know that guy....really bad breath but amuzing just the same. Never thought you'd do a portrait of him tho...he must be glowing.

You have all been very buzy today making these smilies !!

Linda, wow, ya got anything more up your sleeve ?

Pauline, that is just too cute ! Which Canadian beach would that be ? :)

Bayla, Lovin the red garden tomato head !

Sharon, am I seeing things ?? Was this posted elsewhere ?? Very very nice

Bill, give me my car back,.

[NMarti]

Bill
The brown leisure suit with white stitching has scarred me for life! I was hit on by more than one in those days. I hate brown so much I don't even OWN anything brown.:eek: :D

Jodi Yep - that's him!

[mom to 4]

Wow, you guys have gone nuts with this tutorial!!! These have really evolved from say.........Pac Man to Oh, I don't know, what is the last hotest video game???????? Oh, no, do I see a pac man coming???????

[Pauline]

Why Jodi, that would be Lake Simcoe you are seeing!! A mere 5 minute drive from here!! We get all kinds of tourists hanging out there!! All those city folk that come up from Toronto!!

Nancy, my guy isn't cool, he's hot! Didn't you notice those beads of sweat? :D Your second guy is just too creepy.........just looking at him gives me the heeby cheebies!!!

Sharon, you hot chick would do great with my guy. I think there's room on the beach towel!! This was really fun to play around with.

[Pauline]

Tom my tastes go from one extreme to the other. I like ps work that doesn't look like it was done in ps but I also like the whacky surreal type stuff. It's a lot of fun to do. I just wish I had a better imagination and could say the idea was mine and not something I had seen before.

[NMarti]

Pauline
Did I neglect to mention the white loafers he's wearing with that brown leisure suit?:D

[Pauline]

Okay Nancy, now I'm totally grossed out!!! :eek:

[TonyW]

You guys got way beyond me with sophisticated smilies so I just shrank mine down and gave it a roll :)

Tony

[Wendy]

Tony ...

Oh neat !! :)

Wendy

[Bayla]

Managed to get my tomato looking a bit saucy:)

For this I must say a big thank you to Jon for his link in creating an animated gif in PSE.

http://www.photogalaxy.com/forum/viewtopic.php?p=10157#10157

Bayla

PS. The thumbnail doesn't animate, you have to click on it to get the effect.

[ktnoon60]

Great smiley's everyone, Ill have to go watch that video after I catchup.

Terry

[lindajay]

Bayla -- how cool! A winkin' tomato!

[JRR]

And to think that when I saw Matt's tut I thought "Who would want to make a smiley!!" I think I'll have to try it, too; you guys are having way too much fun!

[Tom K]

Tony.....Your making me seasick..:D :D Tom

[Pauline]

Janine, sometimes it just fun to do the silly stuff! You just never know what's going to get our attention. :D We all do like smilies though.

[JRR]

Here's my version of Mr. Smiley. You're right, it was fun!

http://www.pixentral.com/hosted/1ECCJI2Nu5pgMGNMDgY9YrfNuaK_thumb.gif (http://www.pixentral.com/show.php?picture=1ECCJI2Nu5pgMGNMDgY9YrfNuaK)

Yeah - this was like giving the kids the box of crayons and saying color on all the walls.:D We get too serious sometimes and when someone gives us the chance to cut loose - we do!:D :D

Janine - very nice! I thought the same thing at first .... 'who'd spend time doing a smiley?' I gave in and watched the video and all of a sudded I was spending my time doing a smiley.

Just goes to show there's fun to be had just about anywhere.

Well I didn't want to be left out of the loop. So here's my Smiley, while not to creative is was fun to do.

Dorrie, love those nostrils ! :)

I was busy burning brush on our land the past couple of days and I see this smilie thing is still alive and well.

PS, we really should acknowledge Dave's fine shadow tutorial....He makes it look so easy doesn't he ? And again that last little part with his gorgeous face on the wall just made it perfect :D I like that photo he took. Makes me want to run out and look for a wall and door to photograph. Now that would be a nice Photo Challenge topic wouldn't it ??

Jodie,

I agree. Suggest it to Will, he seems to be running out of ideas for the Photo Theme! Maybe he could do 'Doors' one week & 'Windows' another?

Has everyone seen wdlovern's devil smiley? He/She hasn't posted on the forum at all but his/her smiley made the editor's choice this week.

I've been busy working on b-day party pics for a friend & didn't have a chance to upload my smilies until tonight. Then after uploading them, I discovered this link. I'm really out of the loop.
