Here you find every little thing about me (I changed the design as well(ノ◕ヮ◕)ノ). I joined in 2005, but I tried making cards in 2008. Hehe, I joined when TheO was in the old design. When they changed it I became completely lost ☆ ̄(>。☆)
Thank you very much (ヘ。ヘ).
It's still great, try looking at the artist early works, you won't find them as amazing as they are now. We have all improved (^ ^).
Adjustments layers are what I mentioned at the bottom of the last picture here (I mentioned some of them, not all). On photoshop, go to layer >> new adjustment layer. All of them are adjustment layers,vibrance is one of them.
It is special,it was the first time we talked (^ ^).
Having a friend like is enough, thank you for everythingノ (“⌒∇⌒”) *huggles*
Woooow you've been making cards for a long time. ^ロ^ May I know when was the first time you joined this site? (・▽・) Because at first I thought you were a new member, I wanted to guide you through this site but you had known everything here. (*≧▽≦)
Of course you should be happy and proud with your work. (^O^) After all, you are one of the most talented person in this website. (*≧ω≦)
Yepp, this is my first card, but I've tried editing with photoshop before. So it's not really new for me (except for the typography part) although I only know a bit about it. (^~^)
Your tutorial is awesome, Kairi-chan!! (^_^) You're right, I increased the vibrance because I wanted to make the colors more saturated. ( ・ω・) Do you mind telling me what 'adjustment layers' are? I want to use it next time I make cards.
It was a first dedication from you so it's really special and I'll always remember it. ( ´∀`)
You too, you shouldn't thank me for anything. (´▽`) I've only given you a card, I have to give you more! (≧∇≦)
Maa maa, my cards aren't first times, I've been making cards for 5 years, it's actually a bit of shame that I spent all of this time improving but it doesn't matter. I'm happy with my work. (^^ )
My first card wasn't great like this so you should proud! With more practicing and dediction to photoshop. You will be a master at cards ( ⌒o⌒).
Ahh the effects part of the tutorial was a failure..well, not really. I could add more but I didn't people to follow one method. I left it open so everyone can develop their own style. As I can see, probably you used vibrance, or hue/saturation and increased the saturation of the colors. I can advise to try all of the adjustment layers (when practicing, not on an actual card). Try different blending modes, some modes will require you to decrease the fill/opacity in order to get a moderate effect. After trying the adjustment layers. Choose what you will work with. Also in the future, if you want to get a certain effect. You will be able to how to get it because you will be knowing each adjustment layer an its work so you will know how to get that effect you want quickly. It's all about hard work and practicing and dedication. Most of my time on the laptop is spent by practicing photoshop. It took me a lot to know many tricks but it worth it.
....I typed a lot.. I hope it wasn't nonsense (゜ロ゜;)
Oh, the fairy tail iWall. I forgot about it because iWall are much easier to make (^_^;). Cards require more time and they hold feelings as well. I will make a card for you soon (`◇´).
Thank you very much Vio-chan! And, you shouldn't thank for anything (*^^*).
You really think it's beautiful? (;▽;) I'm so happy to hear that. It's nothing compared to your cards, but I'm so glad to receive a compliment from you. (*゚▽゚*)
I didn't do much to the picture. (^_^) I looked at your card tutorial and tried your methods of enhancing colors. Thank you very much!! (≧∇≦)
You have helped me much, Kairi-chan, (remember you have also given me photoshop CS5? (*´・v・) it's more than enough. Actually you have dedicated me twice. (`・ω・´) The first one was Fairy Tail iWall. ◕‿◕✿
(;▽;)( ≧Д≦) VIO-CHAAAAAN. This is sooo beautiful my dear (;▽;)
It's so pretty and cute. Your first card turned out simply amazing (★^O^★). The colors are so soft and pretty, you enhanced them very well. And your typography is absolutely wonderful! (●⌒∇⌒●) You should proud of it (^ ^).
Thank you very much for cute, lovely dedication, I appreciate everything you've done Vio-chan. I've only given you one dedication which isn't enough (iДi) . Thank so much Vio-chan. You're the best dear(*^^*) ♥♥♥

Good luck, Kairi-chan. I hope you'll get good scores and university. (ノ>▽<。)ノ

Thank you (ヘ。ヘ) .
Yup, Wendy is so lovely (^。^)
It was very different, but somehow, it was nice even though it looked like an old site (^^ )
This you first card, Vio-chan. How can you say you hven't improved . But believe me, for a first card, this is amazing (>y<)
I'll try to give you a better explanation of adjustment layers to you, but I'll do that in my holiday because my final exams are in two weeks ゜(`Д´)
You're even a better friend (´;ω;`)

Your world designs are always simple and beautiful. I love the banner!! (´ω`♡) Wendy has become my favorite character too. ^▽^
Was the old theOtaku design very different from the current one? (。・ω・。)
You have improved. I think I haven't improved at all, but hopefully, I will. (´・_・`)
Oh that one. I understand now. I'll try using the other adjustments next time. (⌒▽⌒)
You are right. Thank you for being such a great friend, Kairi-chan. (●´∀`●)
