I'm not exactly sure how you can add professionally-done gradients that Tacheon uses. However, I'm sure you noticed the picture in my sig, right? The three main tools I used were the polygon cutter (or whatever you call it; a lasso of line segments instead of arcs), the magic wand, and the rubber stamp. The second and third tools in particular are my BEST FRIENDS FOREVER when manipulating a picture. Seriously. They're very useful tools, and yet extremely easy to use. Good combination there. ;)

I DO NOT USE PHOTOSHOP.

That is an insult to my talents... I use GIMP, and it's wayyyy better.  Like, so unbelievably better, because it actually takes skill.

Oh, and call me Tacheon.  TB reminds me too much of Tuberculosis.

I have Photoshop, but I am not very good with it.  Although I did make my current avatar with it.

You can download brushes, too... I don't know how to work things exactly. Sorry.

I use an old version of Paintshop Pro I found, which is really similar to Photoshop I think.

Anyway, I am continually downloading new textures and brushes from LiveJounal, it's really useful to get them. Or get nice fonts from dafont.com

PS CS2/CS3 is way better. Now, if you were looking for drawing in PS tutorials...

I just downloaded PS CS2, and I have to say, I'm moderately impressed... ^_^
