Projection, I like how tabblo is written in the apple. How did you do that?

Here was my approach to building this. I used Photoshop CS2. (1) I used the Pen tool to outline the apple. (2) I copied the apple to it's own layer. (3) I added a shadow to the apple with enough spread and cover. (4) I added a fill layer below the apple and chose a color I thought that was complimentary. I am not very good at that type of stuff - but I think it worked. (5) I merged all visible layers into a new layer (Ctrl-Alt-Shift-E on the PC). (6) Used Medhi Projection to finish the background (7) Duped the apple layer and moved the new copy to the top (8) Used free transform to rotate it and move it into place. Also made it taller. (9) Darked it a little with the burn tool. Also applied saturation to the floating apple. (10) Found the Tabblo logo and copied it into a layer on the top of everything. (11) Added a drop shadow and an inner bevel (12) Set blend mode to soft light (13) Used Burn tool to reduce the contrast. (14) Duped this layer and set opacity to 40% - still in soft light blend mode. ---- That's it... .By the way - I have an identical version with the words A Tabblo A day on the apple (just added "a" on top and a day on the bottom) - but it seemed too "noisy"

My question is this: Was the image of a person with an apple for a head intentional? It's very cool.

I'd love to say intentional - but the truth is I am not that good :) .... There was a feature in the Projection plugin that let me shift the overall generation to get that look. That is partly why I did the transformation on the floating apple (rotate and elongate).... it just fell in place as I was experimenting. I mainly used your content (THANKS for this) as a way to experiment and be creative.

I'm glad people are using this as a springboard for creativity. It's a lot of fun to see what others are generating for fun. There's always one or two new ideas to be gleaned from others and I like that the Tabblo community seems to be so generous in nature. It feels like a more current version of the Quilting Bee.

So much thought went into this effective image. Thank you for sharing how you achieved it.
