How to achieve this effect, please?

Hello
I have an image here:
http://stevehigham59.7host.com/orange.jpg
How would I achieve that effect, please - with the different shapes and colours against that blue background inside a blue frame? I'm just wondering where to begin.
Thanks for any advice.
Steve

Many thanks to you all for your replies.
I haven't got Illustrator, I'm afraid so Photoshop will have to suffice.
I've saved all replies and will try out your suggestions.
Thanks again.
Steve

How to achieve this Effect?

Hey everyone i was wondering if you guys had any idea how to achieve this effect in flash.....http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QftcJtvLr8g

While you could probably do this in Flash, it is much more simply done using AfterEffects. There's a splendid text tool that can be tortured into effects like this. Have a look at the podcasts from Creative Cow on AfterEffects for some interesting examples.

Does any body no how to achieve this effect in ae or premiere pro cs5

looking to see if any1 can help me achieve this effect for my music videos http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xIBEl35_wB0&feature=related is there a plug in like fcp or a easy way to achieve this appreciate any help thanks....

I'd use a loopOut expression on 3 keyframes for opacity. I'd also probably experiment with blending modes and throw in the exposure effect to get the flash at the end. A 32 bit comp will help you get a better blending mode with the footage. This will get you blink effect down, then simply cut to the revealed video. You'll end up with 3 layers in your composition. The bottom layer, the blinking layer, then then a duplicate of the blinking layer without effects.
The loop out expression is prewritten for you and requires no modification. You'll find it by clicking on the icon just to the right of the pickwhip expression and selecting Properties.
Your blink layer's opacity property should look like this:
The first and last keyframes are set to 100, the middle, as you can see is set to 10% but it's a matter of personal preference. This will give you 2 frames of full visibility and one at 10%. Changing the spacing of these 3 keyframes changes the look of the blink.

and another:
http://www.webcredible.co.uk/user-friendly-resources/css/css-round-corners-boxes.shtml
Another way: is to use a background for the top rounded area (title), a repeating-y image for the content area and another background image for the bottom rounded section.

How to achieve this effect (similar to timeout)?

I want to achieve something like this:
if(some condition is met)
     //Do this
else {
      Start a timer
      //Start a thread
      If(timer expired) {
               //Clean up the thread that was started
               //Do something else
}I am not able to find how to implement the timer functionality. Can someone advice me on what to do? Or if my approach is incorrect, I would like to how something like this is done the right way...

You shouldn't go around killing threads. Threads should notice themselves when they are not needed and do a "return;" from run(). Other methods of killing threads are unsafe and can lead to corrupted data structures.
You have a loop of some kind in run()? Put a time check there.
if (System.currentTimeMillis() >= my_time_to_die) { cleanupWhatever(); return; }

Any ideas how to achieve this effect?

Hi there - I'm wanting to make some one layer stencils, and would love to replicate this effect, does anyone know a, if it has a name, and b how you'd go about creating it in photoshop (I'm fine to create the duotone high contrast image, just want the wavey line effect)Thanks for taking the time out peeps, fingers crossed D

Thanx for the response, I'll give both of those a try when Im back home laters, the 2nd idea sounds more likely to produce those sort of lines, its an effect I've seen quite often, so was surprised not to see more about it online (which is why I was asking if the technique had a name).
Its kind of a more messed up version of the lined (which sort of tapers off at each end) effect you get when zoomed in on some TV's (cept in this case is vertical rather than horizontal . . .

Newbie - How do I achieve this effect please?

Hi Folks
I'm really quite new to Photoshop, and am trying to learn as I go. I wondered if someone could advise me how to achoieve the layered effect shown in the attached?
Also if I was using a similar picture, what is the best way to 'blend' the left hand side of the image into a light/white background?
Any advice really would be appreciated. I'm using CS4.

Like has been said to me before, there are a 100 ways to do any one thing.
Another easy way is simply using a gradient mask.
Take the image, placed over a white background,
Target the image layer then choose the Create Layer Mask at the bottom of the layer tool bar.
Now choose your gradient tool
and drag it accross the image to taste.
Hope this helps
The advantage to this way is that it does not harm the original and if you don't like the result of the first time you swipe the tool accross it, you simply swipe your grandient tool accross again.

How to achieve this effect using Adobe Photoshop Touch?

Hi,
I'm new to photoshop of all kinds, as you'll soon learn, so I struggle to work out what effect(s), if any, certain images I find online have. At the moment I am trying to work out what effect(s) the images on the below links have, can anyone help? I assume they are the same effects on different images.

Thanks in advance!

Are you asking about the gradient mask towards the bottom of the images?
You can try inserting a new layer then use More (looks like an ampersand or "&"; it's the 2nd icon from the upper right) > Gradient. Use a linear gradient. Tap and drag the gradient to where you want it. Tap and drag the end handles on the gradient to adjust where you want the gradient to begin and end.
Tap the palette icon to change colors, opacity and add/subtract stops.

Anyone know how to achieve this effect?

http://www.superfamous.com/empire/docs/cases/0060.html

The background for the first image could be done by simply messing around in the Filter Gallery, the round shadow could be just a slightly blurred circle with a reduced opacity. Shading in Photoshop is generaly done with either a 50% gray layer set to Overlay or Soft Light and then painting with a low opacity white/black brush or just using the Dodge/Burn tools

Does anyone know how to achieve this in Photoshop? Any help is appreciated, thanks.

Hello,
I'm relatively new to Photoshop so if you know how to do this, please explain by telling me where I click. E.g. File>Open
Does anyone know how I would achieve this exact effect in Photoshop in the image above (without the circular logo)? The 2 light blue type of effects, one at the top of the image, the one at the bottom of the image. I don't know how to achieve this effect, please show me if you know how. I'm using Photoshop CS5.
I have looked through hundreds of tutorials, none provide me any clue as to how this is achieved.
Or does anyone know a tutorial on how this effect is achieved?
Thank you for your help.

Yes, it would have been faster and more constructive to point out exactly where to find information rather than scold you.
Check out the Option bar that one gets under the Menu bar. If it is not showing, go to windows>Options.
More info: http://helpx.adobe.com/photoshop/using/tools.html#using_the_options_bar
If you select the brush tool, you will notice a flow value, that you can lower; and a Mode drop down list.
paint tool options: http://helpx.adobe.com/photoshop/using/painting-tools.html#paint_tool_options
Set the mode to Linear Dodge, then for the next stroke set it to lighten.
Blending modes explanations with links about their effects http://help.adobe.com/en_US/photoshop/cs/using/WSfd1234e1c4b69f30ea53e41001031ab64-77eba.h tml

Particle effect -how to achieve this kind of effect exactly

Hello please help me to achieve this type of flickering particle effect. how to achieve this in After effect which is shown at 0.8 sec to 0.11 in the attached link video. http://www.istockphoto.com/stock-video-2682258-hearts.php

I can't give you the exact settings but you could use Trapcode Particular with a custom particle or CC Particle world. Just turn gravity to 0 and set up a custom particle.
Your particle layer will be behind the spinning hearts layer. This should get you going in the right direction.

Dear all,
Does anybody know how to achieve this specific drop shadow effect in InDesign: a step by step instruction, a plugin, etc?

Kasyan,
I generally just use the basic feather. I draw the object with a few clicks of the pen, fill with whatever color, set the tint if desired, then use settings more or less as below.

How to achieve this using UWL

Hi Friends,
I have the following requirement for Travel request workflow and Invoice approval workflow. Please let me know how to achieve this.
While sending a work item to sap inbox we will put the base BO in the task container right so that the approver can open the particular transaction.I need the same functionality in UWL but instead of the BO i need to place some link so that the user can open an iview or webdynpro application. Basically the user dont want to login to SAP GUI he needs everything to be done in Portal itself.
Do we need to do some settings in tcode SWFVISU for this or do we need to change the associated xml file in UWL to provide the link to iview. Please advice.

Hi,
If i understand your requirement correctly, you want to place a link of BO in UWL but don't want that to get to SAP GUI. Right ?
I think it's possible. We had ECC 6.0 and EP 6.0 with SP 11. And, we had the requirement of showing up the TRIP BO in UWL thru' an iVIEW. We tried the SWFVISU and it didn't work. But, i think this facility has been taken care in later service packs. Pl approach SAP and they should be able to help you out. I'm not sure about the details of the solution SAP provided us, but it worked for us..like there will be a button "Display XXXXXX" which infact opens up your BO in UWL without logging into GUI.
Hope this helps.
