hmm 14 views and not 1 comment - i know it's basic but without comments my next tuts wont get any better...

[Davey]

i was gonna put it into a webpage with images but i'm feeling lazy, it would have been a bit more detailed but i ran out of space vertically lol

umm, i didnt really fall in love with the tutorial. You can achieve the same result much faster. you might have a better second tutorial for this.

Your choice, but i dont prefer fonts thats not easily readable in a tutorial , or any thing with more then 2 sentences for that matter lol.

[Davey]

um, that font isn't easily readable? lol... ooooook

That can be done in 2 steps... Drawing a round rectangle and detailing using layer-styles. You need to familiar yourself with every tool in Photoshop cause that way is longer and a waste of time nowdays .

True, image tutorials is the biggest evil in the tutorial world. It's not accessible for one. Also it's true, the effect on the background could be done by

1) Drawing the shape.
2) Setting Layer Styles.

Maybe the text is harder for me to read because im using a resolution higher than 1024x768, Not sure lol. (Ok let me explain a little better, its easy to read if you're focusing only on reading it, but when you're trying to do a tutorial step by step you're jumping back and forth and you'll easily get lost on which part you're reading with that type of text and the size of it)

We provide multiple image upload on these forums, we also provide hosting of tutorials if your unable to do so.

No it's not easily readable it's very hard to read on majority of resolutions and I agree with everyone that has stated the same, if a tutorial came through the index like this it would be denied because we wouldn't be able to read it, and we do read them.

This would look much nicer in seperate images and text.

ok ok, it can be done in two steps... i went away and figured it out... however, using the method i found it doesnt always look as good on certain colours...


as for the font, fair enough (my res is 1280 x 1024) and i didn't find it difficult to read... must just b me lol...


as for breaking it down into pages and multiple images as opposed to 1 big 1, i will also consider it in future tuts.
