Whats up all? I have a few questions that I hope can be answered.

1) I'm wanting to take a pic of myself and use photoshop a to give me Glasgow Grin/ Chelsea Smile how would I go about that? Scar Brushes?

2) I have been wondering for the longest time how to make these types of backgrounds so I can make one for my Myspace. Those are the Myspace Backgrounds of 3 bands I listen to. I like the black center with an Image on each side. It looks as if all you do is use brushes or vectors on one side then flip/ mirror the image to the other side? Here are the pics of the backgrounds.

3) Wondering if anyone could teach me to make Jif. Banners. I'd like to make one for my friends Band. Here are 2 examples of what kind of Banners I want to make.

I know it's a lot to ask, but I have been wanting to make all of these things form months and cant seem to find any tutorials on how do them. And when I ask on Yahoo, people just give me links to sites that are not related to the topic. I appreciate all the help!

.gif banners are simple .... and I could run those down for you, still looking over all your question at the moment.

Sweet dude, not sure what you mean by running them down, but if you could that would be great! Any ideas on how to make those backgrounds?

I'll see if I can answer these in order.

1) This is something a bit beyond my available time. I'm sure I could figure it out, but don't have the time.

2) Just looking at this, I believe it was done in 3 parts. Part 1 is to create one SIDE of the image. Part 2 is to create the MIDDLE image. Part 3 is to copy/paste/flip horizontal the SIDE piece and place it on the other side. After all that, you can place your text on it (actually you could place your text on it at any point ... your choice).

3) This is done using LAYERS and the ANIMATION toolbar. Now if you have specific images you want to try this with, let me see them, and I'll begin walking you through this process.
