Gradient art

i came across the “Gradient Art” tutorial by Maulik. I followed steps by steps, but i couldnt achieve the effects of the mac wallpaper. Anyone willing to giv a tips or 2 ? :slight_smile: thnx

Thnx

No offense theflash but that tutorial is quite poor, and I wonder how anyone could come up with the apple-style backgrounds.

As I’ve stated in the thread you linked to, the free ‘sinedots’ plug-in is as far as I know the easiest way to achieve the effect.

No offense taken mlk… It is my first tut by the way and I used flash… I selected flash because I wanted to introduce basic fundamentals of gradients and it’s a general topic, “Gradient Art” (I am glad Kirupa selected that name). So it’s not exactly to make that mac wallpaper.

It was no meant to achieve realistic effect but for referece I told that we are going to create something like that… (may be that is why ppl find it misleading, I could have mentioned in the beginning itself that it’s not realistic approch to make that wallpaper)

Anyway thanks for the comments will help bring level up in my next tut.

And I know that method discussed in that previous thread is a very good approch to make MAC wallpaper… That is why I directed him to that forum directly…

Nothing like arguments, just some clarifications I hope will help you understand…

Thanks…
