Learn how to design and create a stunning and unique logo for your business or website, using the gradient tool and texturizer feature.
Bert's “Stroking Pen Graphics” logo is a concoction of a little Illustrator for the basic design and a little Photoshop for a specific style. Bert implements the gradient tool , filters(Texture> texturizer, Render>Fibers), and layer effects (color overlay, bevel/emboss, drop shadow) to to create a work of art. Additionally, by defining the brush preset, Bert creates his own brush stroke to finish the job.

Same here. I have nearly got 2 DVDs now. I collect every show and save then on my hdd and when I get enough to make a DVD I create a title screen and some menus and then make a DVD with then. Makes it real easy when I want to do something and remember that Bert showed us that.. so out with the DVD and click the chapter I want to watch.

I thought it was great. The zooming doesn't bother me that much at all. I do like to see the colors he selects so being able to watch the mouse move is good... no zooming during that time is all I ask.
These seem to be just long enough. Any longer and it would become tedious and hard to concentrate because Bert shows so many great things. Smaller bites are a good thing IMO.
Love these and I look forward to them every week!

Is it just me, or was the color that Bert was referring to as orange really a brown color. I checked with 3 separate monitors, all looked brown to me. Is my monitor calibration that bad?

Thanks for fixing the background!!! :D
Only thing I don't like is all the zooming :( Just kinda makes my eyes readjust all the time and might get distracting.
It could do with out as much. I just really love the way it was all done before the shots were being done at the studio.
Other than that... LOVE IT. Been a dedicated fan since Episode 3.
Keep up the good work and I can't tell Bert how much this helps me with everything. I look up to him tremendously.
Thanks again,
Josh
