Hello everyone, many people have asked me how do I make those types (which wewe can see in this article) of icons. And I try to tell them but couldn’t explain it at that time. And that’s why I thought that I should write an makala about it, I wish it’ll help wewe all to enhance your ability. This is not just a single article. I will pakia the sekunde part too. In first part I will tell wewe basic and simple steps from which wewe can improve your ikoni (By using Photoshop and sekunde kwa using any online editing website) . I decided to do this as when I was uploading ikoni in gallery (of this spot) I saw people were doing same mistake and thought that if I can help wewe guys it’ll be good for wewe guys too and for this spot too. So here I’ll start with.
Size : Size of ikoni does matter, best size for ikoni is (1OO x 1OO)cm au (15O x15O) as in fanpop profiles our ikoni are shown between these two sizes. Though wewe can extend it to (2OO X 2OO)cm. But wewe extend it zaidi it looks like a fanart rather than an icon. So if wewe want a “perfect” ikoni keep it under size (2OO X 2OO)cm.
Quality : Quality of picture is sekunde
most important thing for an icon, as ikoni are small in size so while editing keep in mind to not make the ikoni too bright au blurred.
Effect : I have seen many editing works were people add effect which don’t suit the picture/icon, like there a ikoni of Flora which looks cute and with any picha editing website one add moto flame effect to it which don’t suits it. Editing (such as that of pixlr express) works for pictures but not for icons. Adding too much glitter make ikoni very famine which is not liked kwa everyone instead try to add little glitter/sparkles.
In photoshop wewe can use soft edge (round) brush and just click where wewe want it to be, not many but little soft glitter can make ikoni look adorable.
Text add another good thing to icons, try to add little and meaningful quote to icon, which takes ikoni to the inayofuata standard.
Good picha editing website : Before I had Photoshop 7 I used to use link. It’s one of the best picha editing website. I have used Photoshop element 1O before and I can say it’s like PS element very much. It has free brushes, wewe don’t need to download all just add then and save them. Whenever wewe want to make ikoni wewe can pakia those brushes. wewe can learn how to hariri with that website as it has a section “Help” and once you’ll learn it’ll be very easy for you. wewe can even ask maswali there. I can assure wewe that it’s better than Pixlr express and pic monkey. Just try to roam around it and learn it. If I could give it stars out of 5 I would have aliyopewa it 1O/5 XD
While adding text wewe can give effect to texts too , drop shadow effect it good for it as it makes text zaidi realistic.
In inayofuata part I’ll tell wewe about shadow effect, techniques of using brushes, adding yellowish border (blended) and how to blend/merge images. If I couldn’t contain all of these topics in one I would write another makala for left ones.
Uploading : While uploading add ( 2OO X 2OO )cm ikoni add them ikoni wewe can add them in any category e.t. shabiki art au icons. As it can be called ikoni (usually ikoni are of 1OO X1OO but it can be 2OO X 2OO) au a shabiki art.
Thanks for kusoma this, I hope this will help wewe guys. I’ll pakia inayofuata part soon. Please give your review.
