So you may as well join them. Over at MacMerc, they’ve got a step-by-step tutorial that’ll have you creating iKids, iPets, and iFriends in no time. (And if no time is just too long, send your pic to iPop My Photo along with $20, and they’ll do it for you!) Make Your Own iPod Ad Silhouettes p.s. You’ll find a simpler tutorial at Photoshop Lab. It lacks some of the subtleties of the MacMerc method, but it gets the job done. |
Unless you’ve been living under a stack of LPs and 8-tracks for the past few years, you’ve seen the too-hip-for-you iPod ads everywhere by now. On buses, billboards, and buildings, you can’t escape those hipsters jumping and gyrating with their white earbuds.|
Our pal Josh, shown here holding his imaginary camera, has a nifty trick that will let you fix those shots in a jif. All you need is a copy of Photoshop (almost any version will do) and about five minutes. You can use his technique to improve nearly any photograph where extreme lighting fools your camera into underexposing your image. Watch our quick video to learn how to do it! |
If you’ve ever wrestled to get a decent shot of the outside and inside when shooting indoors on a sunny day, or been disappointed to find your subject silhouetted when shooting into the sun, we have your fix.|
You know how when you’re in an airplane about to land, everything down below starts to look like it’s part of a little toy world? Little toy trucks driving around, little tiny ant people, houses made of little play bricks? You can achieve the same effect in your photographs using a fancy schmancy “tilt-shift” lens. (Stay tuned for a $100 alternative we’ll be covering soon!) Or, use Photoshop to achieve the look for free! We’ve been looking for the best tutorial on the technique. This is it.

Julian Opie’s portraiture style is unmistakable, so it’s unlikely you can fool anyone into believing you thought this one up yourself. We suggest you just admit that you copied the idea from us here at PhotoJojo, who in turn copied it from Karl, who was inspired by Julian Opie to make his own copy. Whew! How’s that for post-modern? How to make your own pop art portraits |
This dude named Karl has come up with a super-simple process that lets anyone, even beginners, turn photographs of people into beautiful illustrations (for posters, prints, or whatever.)
