Not liking this tutorial very much. It’s missing a few things that throws off students trying to go along with this tut. Many in my class cannot understand this past page 3.

I thought it was a great tutorial. There are a few details that you are missing in the tutorial, like how to move the positioning of a radial gradient in blending mode. I still haven’t been able to figure that one out.

I loved it, my only prblem was that everything was going oppisit of what was done. like the silver bits the black line was on the bottom and ot on the top. or the spot was on the bottom and not on the top. But other then that, total time it took me a couple of hour not including the interuptions I got while I was doing it. nice tut. got anymore????

nice tutorial, but I’m having some trouble
I’m using Photoshop CS3 and have some trouble with the creating the first earphone
Do i create it on the same layer as the main object? And how do i get the convert point tool working? I tried using it once I’d done the earphone but it says ‘no options for the convert point tool’
Help please!
