A Few Oldies But Goodies
Over the past few days I've been doing some updates on some of the older tutorials on the Web site. In case you haven't read them recently, I wanted to highlight them. This will probably be the first of several blog posts highlighting older tutorials as I still have quite a few to update.
Back when David Karlins wrote Creating Web Page Background JPEG Files, it was common to use a small tile able bitmaps for the the background of Web pages. I don't think the technique is used very often these days, but there is still some valuable information you can pick up from the tutorial.
Mike Bresciani showed how you could take an old grayscale photo and give it color in his Adding Color to Black and White Photos with Corel PHOTO-PAINT. Certainly a few of the features have changed in Corel PHOTO-PAINT, but these techniques will still work today. Find an old grayscale image and give it a try!
Everyone loves t-shirts that are personalized. Ron McIntyre shows you how to create your own in Creating Stencils to Paint on T-Shirts. I certainly would have preferred that he create shirts heralding the National Champion Kansas Jayhawks instead of our rival, but the techniques are still something you can use to make stencils for your designs.
As I get more pages updated, I'll post the tutorials here so you can refresh your memory or even see these for the first time.
