Need a bit of help..

It may sound nOObish to some of you but I'm a nOOb at Photoshop so whatever.. Can someone tell me how to create the little diagonal line things? Like on this fanbar?



Thanks to anyone who helps. ChecK out Kreach3rSigs - Some of my better sigs.

New Layer > Round Marquee Tool > Gradient Tool, white to transparent inside the selected area.

You'll see when you did the gradient too much.

They're called scanlines and there are many types of them. They are patterns that you can use in different ways to add a nice filler, or tech-theme to your work.

You can simply download a scanline pattern pack @ deviantart. Just search for scanlines or something.

once you get the scanline file downloaded (its a .pat file), you then put it in your photoshop folder, under patterns:

Program Files > Adobe > Photoshop CS2 > Presets > Patterns.

I usually just use them to fille shit, like in my sig below. Make a new layer Edit > Fill. They usually look best at about 10-20 % opacity. Now,don't get carried away with scan lines, they can really make a sig look sweet, or ruin it completely. Theres a lot of predjudice against scan lines so another reason to not overuse them is becuase you will be called a newb
