Need help trying to replicate this image

Hi all,
I'm not sure if this is the correct place to post, but i'm wondering if I could get suggestions on how to best re-create this image, but in a seamless manner (I had to erase a lot out since it had set pieces in front of it). I need to replicate this in a 6660X1080 banner.

Thanks for any help you can be! I've seen instructions on how to make lightning and it seems pretty straight forward, but this looks a little tougher than that, no?

Download the demo of After Effects plus possibly the demos of some plug-ins (Sapphire, Delirium)... Tons of Lightning effects and even though it's meant for animation, nothing stops you from just rendering out a still frame for your banner. Other than that I don't see much in your sample and it could be reasonably well created even using basic Photoshop or Illustrator techniques... Really not sure what you are asking here. Sounds more like you are generalyl rather inexperienced in PS...

Need help trying to figure this out!!!! Angle gradient???

Hi,
I've been working in a project where i'm not sure if the terminology is correct. But as far as my research goes
it is refer as an angle gradient similar to the one in Photoshop. See image for idea:
http://forums.adobe.com/thread/432656
I would like to use the same technique and create something for complex like this:
I already have made the path and but gradient doesn't seem to go around the paths.
Please help!!!!!!!!! Can someone provide me with a step by a step in how to create
a path like this?
I'm running CS4 Ai, Ps. Anything will help.
Thanks!!!

This thread is 3.5 years old but here is a solution to make angle gradients in Illustrator CS6 and CC, which now have the capability to apply gradients on strokes.
1. Make a circle and give it a stroke equal to half its size and align stroke to center.
Example: 100px circle with a 50px stroke.
2. Apply a linear gradient that has the same color on the starting and ending stops (if you want a seamless gradient) and apply gradient along stroke.
3. Apply Path > Effect > Offset Path half the amount of the stroke size and make it a negative value so the path offsets inward.
4. Done!

Need help trying to figure this problem out. Username validate on servlet.

Hello.
Here is my dilema. Almost everything works but the username check servlet.
I have form that gathers information that sends to a bean to validate the forms fields. If the fields check out ok it than forwards to Vusername servlet which checks the username in the database to make sure there is not one of the same username in there. If there is the servlet redirects to a retry page notifying the user that the username is already taken. If successfull the servlet forwards to another servlet which processes all the registration information into the database.
As i said everything works fine but the Vusername servlet. I dont think the problem is with my sql query which checks for an exsiting username with the one that was entered into the form.
I think the problem is with my if statements. I think they are currently checking if the sql query has ran. If true do this if false do that. Which is not right.
I need the if statments to check against the result of the sql query being true or false and than redirect depending on those variables.
Anyway any insight would be greatly appreciated.
Here is a copy of the Vusername servlet.
Thanks.

Thanks for the repli.
I forgot to come back here and fix the topic to issue solved.
In the past hour sience i posted i was able to work through and fix the problem.
Was with my if statment... Just an error of typing to fast i suppose and not really going through my code very thouroughly.
Think how i had the code posted i was using the
if statment to check if the sql statement was true , than another if statment to check if was false..
Thing is, is that i already was checking if the username was in the database or not in the actual sql statment block by assinging weather the it was (true) or it was not (false) to the resultset variable.
So in my if statments higher up in the code i just needed to reformat them correctly, from if true do this, and if false do this... To if some variable is present do this, else do this.
And now it works great.
Just in case anyone was wondering.
But thanks for the repli and interest :)

This is detailed: I lost my touch pad scroll ability on my desktop when I installed Firefox, I am having a terrible time trying to sync my new Android tablet to my desktop, my desktop Firefox is acting very strangly (I need help trying to use it)

My Vista Home Premium desktop has not used Firefox for a long time. I just loaded it as well as on my Honeycomb Android. The statement that I made pretty much says what my problem is. I can use both of them at the same time and use a router with the air Verizon card installed.

Log in to your MyVerizon (verizonwireless.com) and on the Overview page scroll down to I WANT TO... in the third column of boxes, under DEVICE, the 3rd one down is "Activate or Switch Device". Click on that and follow the instructions. If there is an issue, it will instruct you to call customer service or you will be connected to customer service automatically. Let us know if this works...

If this sort of thing is not covered on this forum please direct me to an off site forum that would help me with this graphics question

Trial and error, putting both the reference image and your new experimental image up side by side, is the only way I know. I'd probably use the Info panel as well, to see that I'm getting the same or very similar color numbers from the new drop shadow.
You can probably use the Magic Wand set to a very low tolerance value to select and copy the light colored object, then make a new document with a white background, paste in the copied object, then start experimenting with drop shadow. Alternatively you could just redraw a portion of it.

That's going to be a ridiculous waste of money and energy.
First of all, the current ATI drivers don't support multiple GPUs, so at the moment even a single 4870X2 would be only a 'normal' 4870 (which is quite a speed beast already). GFX drivers evolve rapidly, so things might look different next month, but when it comes to Linux and hardware there's one Golden Rule: stay away from the newest stuff and wait for proper support to get coded.
I also wonder what power supply could possibly cope with the differences between idle and full load; that's way beyond 400W. But then, I'm one of those "quiet&green" types where >100W idle is already a bit much.
I kind of understand that you want to get it done and not worry about hardware for the next 10 years or so, but that's simply not how the hardware world works and never did. At least not for the average consumer.

I need help trying to print ,move and resize multiple images on a page to print!help!

can anyone give me to some advice. I was using an older version of photoshop elements where i could position the image i wanted to print on the page. I could resize it, move it around and add more photo's. I print small images that I cut out for jewelry making and need to be able to add 12 small images to a 4x6 print size page. My new elements is not allowing me to do that! I'm frustrated and need help!! thanks!

It should work just the same as before: create a blank document, place your images on it, then print it. The only difference is that you can't change the position of the image in the print window anymore.
