Tresni -- Photoshop Text Effects

http://www.photoshoproadmap.com/Photoshop-tutorials/Text-effects/Most-popular/1/
Over 700 pages of text effect tutorials !
Here are some I've tried....................

This is the first tutorial I followed, a simple text effect yes but it does work really well, the link above is to the tutorial I followed to learn who to create this.

Here is another tutorial I have followed today, its good detailed and easy to follow making the outcome exactly how you want it too be

 http://www.photoshopessentials.com/photoshop-text/text-effects/light-burst/page1.php

The tutorial is easy to follow, simply laid out and gives a very good result,

Here's what I made from it :D 

I really like it,You might see that mine doesn't quite look as good as the one in the tutorial that's because of the way I did it a little different.

Might start messing with Photoshop again soon but currently coursework is taking priority :/

Thanks
/Tresni

P.S how do you like out new layout? :D

Tresni --- Sorry

Hey all sorry for lack of posts with Blogger going down and a very busy weekend so far none of us have had a chance to fix the problems that we have now, those who saw before it went down we have a new template which took awhile to sort out which we will have to do again, im hoping we can do it ASAP so will be trying to post soon!

thanks for patience guys

Tresni -- Magnitude 5.3 earthquake in Lorca (southern Spain)

Quick News Update:

A magnitude 5.3 earthquake has toppled several buildings in southern Spain, near the town of Lorca, killing at least seven people, officials say.

''A moderate earthquake measuring around 4.5 had hit Lorca, causing buildings to shake and damaging private houses and buildings.



Approximately two hours later, the larger quake struck near Lorca, reportedly causing the roof of a nursing home to collapse, damaging a number of other buildings and splitting the tower of the church of Santiago in the town.''

 Currently it is unknown how many people have lost their lives and how many homes and buildings have been damaged or destroyed due to this natural disaster.

It seems lately more and more natural disasters are occurring, with people being suspicous of 2012 and the 'End of the World' doesn't it seem a bit weird how all these things are happening now, and more as we get closer to the time?.

Prayers and Aide going to all those effected.
Hopefully there are no more after having two in a row the damage must be extensive.

Tresni -- Movie Of the Week 3

This Weeks Movies:

Pirates of the Caribbean Series.


Everyone has heard of Pirates of the Caribbean and Jack Sparrows crazy adventures well as the new one is about to come out I thought now would be a good time to have them as Movie of the Week :)
Here's a quick overview of the series:

The Curse of the Black Pearl (2003)

IMDB: IMDB

IMDB Rating: 8/10

Synopsis:

Blacksmith Will Turner teams up with eccen

tric pirate "Captain" Jack Sparrow to save his love, the governor's daughter, from Jack's former pirate allies, who are now undead.

Dead Man's Chest (2006)
IMDB:IMDB
IMDB Rating: 7.3/10

Synopsis:

Jack Sparrow races to recover the heart of Davy Jones to avoid enslaving his soul to Jones' service, as other friends and foes seek the heart for their own agenda as well.

At World's End (2007)

IMDB: IMDB

IMDB Rating: 7.0/10

Synopsis:

Captain Barbossa, Will Turner and Elizabeth Swann must sail off the edge of the map, navigate treachery and betrayal, and make their final alliances for one last decisive battle.

On Stranger Tides (2011)

IMDB: IMDB

IMDB Rating: N/A

Synopsis:

Jack Sparrow and Barbossa embark on a quest to find the elusive fountain of youth, only to discover that Blackbeard and his daughter are after it too.

Now with me and Imokim being big fans of the series so far we both are waiting for the fourth installment On Stranger Tides, for us in England it will be released 15th of May which is not long from now so we hope too see it soon! 

So far the films have been really good with a good storyline, action and drama within them enough to keep any audience member on the edge of their seats however I know that many people do not think the same as shown when i was researching for this post, each film the rating has gone down :( Hoping the rating will be a solid 8/10 for the new movie.

There have been rumors that another two films are possible after this one which makes me believe that we may be seeing Pirates of the Caribbean and Jack Sparrow for a few more years yet! 

Personally my favorite movie of the three I have seen so far is Curse of the Black Pearl, the first one, it was such a great movie which obviously has lead into a series which has been just as good although I thought the second movie, Dead Man's Chest was the weakest of them.

You may have seen Imokim's post a few days ago about the Jack Sparrow song, if you haven't then check it out here:  [Imokim] Jack Sparrow feat Michael Bolton

Stay Tuned for Next Weeks Movie of the Week!

[Imokim] - New Video

Many of my posts on here are going to be videos that I make.  In this case it is going to be on recording games of League of Legends.

A lot of people have trouble when recording games because Fraps takes up a hell of a lot of space and can be troublesome if you want to record a game.  This video goes through the steps on making this task easier.

[Ryukon] League of Legends!

GUYS,

MY POSTS SHALL BE ABOUT LEAGUE OF LEGENDS.

Guides
Builds
Strategies
Champs
That sort of stuff!

I'll start with Malz right after this game, I'll get screenshots too. :D

Rocky lyrics - The Lonely Island

I couldn't find these online yet so I just wrote them out, enjoy.




Here's a little story that I think you'll like.
It's not about Shaq or Iron Mike.
So buckle your seat belts, it's gunna get choppy and listen to the tale of the time I faught Rocky.

One day me and all my friends were hanging, talking about which of the girls was most banging.
Then one friend says 'You know who's really tough, Rocky, the boxer.'
Well, I said 'Yeah I know what about him'
He said 'He's really tough.'
No way man, I'm calling your bluff.
I think that I can take him and to prove my point, I'll challenge him in public, Yeah that's the joint.

So the very next day, staying true to my word and I snuck on TV, so I can be heard.
I said 'Rocky if you're out there I think you're a nerd
And I'll lick you and bury you like a dog turd.'

I got kicked out but the candle was lit 'cuz the people had to know if my claim was legit.
It made the headlines then I got the call..It was Rocky, and he wanted a brawl.
We negotiated terms and set the date then I went into training to add some muscle weight.
While I punched on meat in a rickedy shack he was sipping on wine having models rub his back.

At the way in, boy the tension was high. Me and Rock toe to toe and eye to eye.
I talked some trash we got pulled apart, I shot him one last look to strike fear in his heart.

Skip ahead, the big night is finally here. My body was ripped and my mind was clear.
We entered the arena to the roar of the crowd, people chanting my name, I'd never felt
so proud.
Faced off once more in the centre of the ring, touched gloves then a prayer then the
bell went 'ding'.

He hit me with a left and shattered my face then a right sent my teeth all over the place.
Then another great punch caved in my eye socket, he broke my jaw and my trainer yelled
'stop it!'
But nobody heard him and he crushed my ribs, blood sprayed off my face and onto
some kids.
They yelled out more, and Rocky obliged.
I had to think of some way to turn the tides, so I leaned back to hit him with all my might.
Took and swing but he caught me with a sucker punch right. Then a sucker punch left and a sucker
punch right then 22 consecutive sucker punch rights.

He tore off my arms and beat me with them. Then threw acid in my face which obscured my vision.
He kicked me in the leg and fractured my shin, the bone splinter shot right out of my skin, people barfed in the crowd, they were going insane. Then Rocky punched my nose bone into my brain.

I was quivering and twitching when I soiled my shorts.
Then Rocky pissed on me, customary in sports.
The doctor came out and pronounced me dead.
And that was the night I faught Rocky.


Wicky wikcy wah..

[Ryukon] Replaced my biological battery!

Hey guys

Very sorry that I haven't posted much over the last month, I've had a lot of shit going down and I've not had much time to focus on anything else. I've literally spent the past month trying to stop my life from turning into a big steaming heap of shit. I won't disclose any details because no one cares and the sheer level of it will just blow your minds.

On another happier topic, I've got most of it under control now, and I've actually got some energy and morale back......

[Imokim] - Jack Sparrow (Feat. Michael Bolton)

Lonely Islands new track was released yesterday.
Jack Sparrow feat. Michael Bolton.

I have never listened to anything as funny as this, me being a Pirates of the Caribbean fan and all.

Well, here it is, Enjoy.

Tresni -- F1 Turkish Grand Prix at Istanbul Park

F1 or Formula One is a great racing championship that takes place worldwide, I believe most people will have heard of it so I won't be describing everything in detail.
Right now the Turkish Grand Prix is live at Istanbul Park (Link Below)

Live Watch
With the two Red Bull Racing drivers in 1st and 2nd the race looks let for a 1/2 finish for Red Bull however the race can change in any way so there is no real way to say for sure.

This is what I'm doing for the next few hours watching this and then I am hoping afterwards to be getting to see my girl :D I won't go all soppy like Ryukon does I'll leave the soppy posts to him haha.

Anyway hoping for a good race and a good day, sun shining, little sleep after crashing at the party last night, gotta love cooking BBQ food and chilling for most the night :D somehow we managed to spend most the night sitting on the kitchen floor which was quite entertaining.


Might do a quick post later and looking for a Movie of the week post as well.
Till next time
/Tresni

[Imokim] - Now you're thinking with portals.

Not really, nothing to do with Portal here.
Instead..My new Minecraft video.

Here it is, give me feedback please.

Tresni -- Saturday's in Town

Only a small post today sorry guys, im getting ready to go into town with mates today and might be going to a party after so i doubt i will get around to making another post unless its from my phone.

Every Saturday the group goes into town we don't really have any plans we all just turn up and what happens happens :D it's a lot of fun and just great to hang out with everyone but lately a lot more people have been coming who we call 'the new lot' now don't get me wrong they might be ok people but they have half merged with our group and most of us don't like them, they are annoying and young so everything they think is amazing and cool we've already done like 2 years ago haha.

But we deal with it and basically insult them till they go away :P

Might post some pictures of the place we hang out if i can find some good pictures of it.

Till next time.

Tresni -- College

I've spoken about my College a few times and have complained about the amount of work but at least I get a nice view when I'm getting my work done!
Unfortunately It's rather distracting as there are ducks and other animals out there as well making it entertaining to watch out there :D
Anyway this is the view I get when I'm busy getting on with my work, I haven't really gotten into the work that I do so I might as well tell you now, I take 3 BTEC's and 1 A Level (History blehh)

The courses I do are IT, Double IT and Ebusiness, Yes they are all basically the same thing just with different units as these are all 100% coursework which makes my coursework load MASSIVE along with the stupid History I need to learn but to be honest I've just about given up with History I'm not taking it next year so there's no point wasting time which I could be doing the coursework I'm constantly behind in.
The work isn't too hard its just the amount and the effort to get it done which I happen to fail at as surfing the web and finding new ways to do things the school doesn't want you to do becomes a much more entertaining task (Plus the view! :D)

So now you know what I do...what do you do/did you do? anything interesting? Comments ! :D

Till next time

/Tresni

Tresni -- Testing from College
