Multi Colored Gradient Shadow

Hey guys , i have come across a really simplistic yet unusual gradient on the web . picture below :



if you have a closer look , you'll see the gradient has some kind of a rippple effect , it not just a plain gradient . how do i make such a gradient in psd ?

you will see the ripple effect if you look closely . also you can see the banner here too.

Thank you.

Gautam.

I'm going through a tutorial where we're using a technique that employs the use of the basic gradient tool to cover parts of a layer mask. From what I can tell, the instructor in the video is using a default black to white gradient. The problem I'm having is that he keep using the gradient tool to build up the area with several applications and angles. When I try to do that, my gradient application is 'replaced' by any following uses, instead of adding to it. Obviously I could just manually paint over the one gradient application with a big soft brush, but I wanted to know why mine replaces instead of adds. I've searched settings, but nothing sticks out. Any ideas?

Hey all. I'm trying to recreate the blur effects of the logo(s) used for the Tate Modern.

The logos:

One of the solutions suggests using gradient masks, feathering and adjusting the curves. This works but falls short of achieving the more exaggerated effect of for instance the last two photo I've posted above. Are there other things I can do to bloat/obscure the shape of the letters? I also want them to still look like there going in/out of focus.

In addition I've had trouble with the gradient masks:



As you may be able to see, part of the text (diagonally across the middle) is masked over slightly. The idea was to create two complementing gradient masks so one masks over the top left one layer, one masks over the bottom right of one layer so when the layers are placed on top of each other it creates one seamless, solid color. I thought I could do this by copying the gradient mask of the first layer, moving it to the second layer and inverting the colors, but as you can see a grey area appears, where the two fading gradient masks seem to overlap. Here is the text with the gradient masks disabled:



Also the original typeface they used is supposedly VAG Rounded.

Thank you so much for your time!

Hi, i've been trying to achieve the same effect as on the pictures attached through gradient+noise combination but the result is not exactly what i need. I searched for cosmic nail polish effect tutorial for ps (looks pretty similar to me lol) but couldn't find any. Any suggections? Many thanks.

Hi guys,

here is a photo that I wonder how they were able to have a continuous gradient behind the stand so that the gradient can be seen through the plexi stand? I tried masking the area inside the plexi stand but how do I still make it look like a semi-transparent plexi stand while also the gradient behind the stand?

Thanks for any help.

I am a designer who primarily uses InDesign and Illustrator and have a client that wants to recreate this gold and black gradient beveled embossed looking rectangle... however they want it in Photoshop. I for the life of me, can't remember how to do this with the gradients and changing colors. Is there someone out there that wouldn't mind giving me a step by step process on how to create that background box? I've attached the image. I know how to add the text, and all of the rest of the info, just needed help creating that outer border.

Thank you!

Hello guys, i'm have a little trouble to print a folder of my company.

I hired a guy to make the folder, but he backed out of the deal.

The folder is already completed, i'm just having issue with the printer company.

My background isn't in the right black composition in cmyk.

How do i change the actual RGB gradient of my background to a CMYK with ONLY K color making the gradient??

Any idea?

Here's the print of the last page.

Hi I've just created a white circle. I would like to add some shading on it to make it appear more 3D.

I use the gradient tool...but instead of it being white...with dark grey/black shading. It goes from white and fades to the colour of the background it's on. I've spent hours messing around with the gradient tool and the colours will not change. It just fades to whatever background it's on rather than a specified colour. All I want is a white sphere with black shading...rather than see through white.

It's driving me mad.

Cheers

Hey guys please do look at this image , can you please give me a clue as to how those colorful brush effects on the top - right corner and botton-left corner can be replicated , i have seen and used also alot of amazing brushes , but this effect seem to be really cool . Thank you . Gautam.

Hi, there. This is my first post on photoshopgurus. I do cartoon maps of towns and properties. I enjoy all aspects except doing trees. My process goes as such: I pencil draw the area and then trace with a black art pen. I then scan it in. From there I do clean up in photoshop of lines and I close any missing gaps so I can use the bucket fill to drop colors into areas. With trees this is a very tedious thing to do, expecially making sure every black line is connected. Also with trees I select the inside with the magic wand and drop gradients in. I want a different look and a less laborious task. When I look at similar artwork from other people I want to do the same technique as them but don't know an efficient way to do it. They have filled trees with a radius gradient but didn't have to outline their shape in all black to contain it. Yet they somewhat retain the same shape even though it can leak outside of the lines. Which I like the look of. Does anyone know how I can acheive this look in a timely manner? Thanks for all your input. How can I accomplish the look of the first tree?
