While I am trying to find a way to solve my 4shared problem, I have tried to find a way to open the files. Download them like any other file and then try to open with WinRar or the program you use to extract files from Zips. It should work and then you can extract the files inside the Zip.

Sorry and thank you for reporting me the error! :D

CU designer: avoid grayscale!

noreply@blogger.com (Aida Scrap) — Sat, 27 Aug 2011 16:18:29 PDT

This tutorial is to show why you as a CU designer (and even if you are a PU designer) must avoid grayscale. There just 2 reasons! And they are all easy to fix!

1.- It is easier to recolor items if they are colored. When a designer want to recolor an item, it's so easy to do if the item is in different colors, because it's easy to know where goes each color...
Look at this example. This is a crochet flower that I picked from Rachael's Scrap Store few months ago.

If I want to recolor it, I will know where I have to put each color. I can use a lot of tools to recolor it: using tones, using a brush, change the saturation, select just the color I want to change... Now, what happens if this item were just gray?...

The flower continues looking great but... There are two colors or just one? Where goes each color? Like you can see it's difficult for a designer to know where goes each color and there are only one way to recolor it if you want more than one color: using a brush. But the brush is not easy, because you really don't know where goes each color... So maybe it's better to leave the whole flower in just one color. Now, do you understand why it's better to leave the elements in they real colors? ;)

2.- Previews looks better and may inspirate your future customer. If you show the customer a dark and sad preview, the will not spend too much time looking it and sure they will not feel inspirated by the item there, look at the example. It's the preview of my Pocket Layout Template, but grayscaled.

It's a nice layout but maybe you don't have a kit that matches this style... Look at the real preview:

Oh... I remember I have a kit with similar color than these template... I think I have a jean texture in my stash that will look great on the pocket!

I know you understand what I mean!

You have more reasons? Tell us! Leave a comment here and help others to learn more!

Replying to Heidi!

noreply@blogger.com (Aida Scrap) — Wed, 17 Aug 2011 11:43:09 PDT

Heidi N. write this to me:

Thank-you!! I have a question for you. I am semi-new to this. I see how you can get the colors you want to the template, but how do you get the icing and strawberry to shine and add the tonal look to the cake and wrapper in your example? Do you use effects,actions,styles, or something else? I know of actions & styles, but have never used styles. I have used one action and it was great. I am larning more about the "standard" effects. Thank-you for any tips you can share.

---

Thank-you! Those tutorials sound great! I just left a comment on a couple posts down (the cute cupcakes) about how to do some things. I guess with that, how do you use styles with PSE? I would appreciate a tutorial on that, too! Thanks!

Hi Heidi! I have never use Photoshop Elements, but I am going to invesigate a little bit for you :) The shine on the strawberry is a Photoshop Style, not sure if styles can be used on PSE, but I will continue investigating :D

Thank you and thanks for all the comments, I read them all! I hope I can reply to you soon Heidi. See you soon! If someone can help us, don't hesitate and do it! haha
