Half-Circle Embellishment How-To Video

Thanks for the tutorial Ali!, love that use for this half circle embellishments"

Wow - you're too hard on yourself! I couldn't imagine anyone doing better! Thanks for generously sharing your knowledge.

Nice job! :D

So glad to see the finished layout! I love what you did (and that first shot of Anna is gorgeous, btw)!

Nice work, Edwards.

Good for you for venturing into this. I LOVE video tutorials. Love them!
My only suggestion is to do more zoom-ins onto the screen to show what you actually do - with those red circles that some designers use to highlight the actual drop down menu etc. The visual + the verbal really clarifies the process for most people. I'd also mention at the beginning that you are using CS4 as opposed to PE6 or 7.
Can't wait to see more!

well done. I am looking forward to taking yours and Cathy's classes this fall!

I'm having trouble hearing your tutorial Ali. It may be my computer but other things appear to be playing fine. I've got the volume cranked and I still can't hear you. Did anyone else have this problem or just me and my computer? Anyway, hope I get it figure out! Thanks so much for sharing it!

Great video, Ali!

nice video ali!

Good job, Ali. Nice to hear your voice again. CKU Stamford was a long time ago! And, Anna is getting cuter every day. My suggestion ... can you change your mouse pointer to make it more visible?

coolio...can't wait to try it!

Very nice job. It will only get easier and better with more practice. Thanks for sharing.

It is so funny(cute) to hear your accent as you talk, I guess when I read your blog I don't put an American accent in my head I guess I give you an Australian one - sorry! You did a great job. One thing I would like to know is how to move your image after you hae placed in in the mask if it is not quite in the right spot. From a very basic PS CS3 PC user. This idea helps so much, I am just a keep trying till it works type which can be frustrating. Thanks for sharing.

Great video! You did a good job for your first time. I'm very new to PSE and I understood what to do.

I think I answered myself, after rewatching did you say you just use the arrow keys to move the photo around afterwards? Thanks so much for the recolouring too, I finally worked out I need to select keep opacity - little things make a big difference!

It's so great to hear you voice Ali!
The video is great. I love the screen/voice combo. It definitely makes me want to learn something new as well. Hmmm, I wonder if I could start making DIY videos for work... : )

What a great pair you two are! Really enjoying the collaboration.

Great job! Also neat to hear your voice after reading your columns and blog for so long! I must rush right out and download these from Desinger Digitals.

thanks for the video.... i too didnt expect your accent (kiwi girl from new zealand here).... so NOT what I expected... how silly is that... we are so used to our accents... hahahaha
love your products!!! and cant believe anna is 5months
