Last message on previous page:
I really like it.  The choice of colour is quite good.  If I could recommend one thing though; you need to fix the blur on the animal on the box.

 

That's it though :jap:

Good job, but it's not completely flawless. Try to think about shadows and how they work. All color on the left side of the box should be darker then the right side. Also, the round corner of the box can use some work. I'm just giving you some tips on how you could improve!  :great:

I'm very sorry. :neutral: I think I have them on my computer (which is in repair in the shop at the moment). As soon as I get it back I'll put them back on-line! :smile:

Good news (I hope!;) :biggrin:. I finally got the images back online. I'm very sorry that they disappeared, and even more sorry that it took so long before they came back. I'll hope you'll all enjoy making software boxes again now. :happy2:

There is an action script that creates some really nice looking software boxes. It is free, and it only requires that you have Adobe Photoshop installed.
Check it out here: http://www.absolutecovers.com/blog [...] ox-creator

as soon as i get home, i'll try something like this :D
 
but... maybe i'll do some crystalization to the box or just a huge ice box(block) :D :penguin:  
------------------
but there's one thing i don't really know - how and why.. -.-
do i have to free transform it twice for the box looking? or what? i guess , but i'm not sure..  
and.. i see those lines on the edges of the box... :arf: how to make 'em? :neutral:

Yes, you have to transform it twice. It'll probably be clear to you when you just try it. :) Go ahead, and post here if you can't figure it out. As for the lines:
 

Quote :

Now hit Ctrl+R, this will show the rulers. Now pay attention, you might have to experimentate in Photoshop a bit to understand this. Put your mouse on the rulers, hold down left mouse, and drag a line to the image. This way you'll create so called guides.

Nice, but try to minimize the blending effects (namely Bevel & Emboss, Shadows, and Glows) unless you absolutely need them. ;)
