• There seems to be an uptick in Political comments in recent months. Those of us who are long time members of the site know that Political and Religious content has been banned for years. Nothing has changed. Please leave all political and religious comments out of the forums.

    If you recently joined the forums you were not presented with this restriction in the terms of service. This was due to a conversion error when we went from vBulletin to Xenforo. We have updated our terms of service to reflect these corrections.

    Please note any post refering to a politician will be considered political even if it is intended to be humor. Our experience is these topics have a way of dividing the forums and causing deep resentment among members. It is a poison to the community. We appreciate compliance with the rules.

Feathering Around Panel Lines

Brian,
Using Paintshop Pro 8, how do you lighten from the line to the solid color of the panel?

I'm not the Brian you are looking for, probably, but:

Duplicate to your panel line layer, invert it (make the lines white), apply gaussian blur (quite a bit), move it under your panel lines, but above your base color. That should give you a gentle gradual lightening on your panel leading to the panel lines. With a large blur, it should be pretty subtle. Is that what you are trying to do, though?

Brian,
I believe you hit the nail on the head. I will give it a try and get back.
Thank you, Sir,
Bob

This sounds like a great idea. I'll definitely give it a go. This forum is a really useful tool for all of us would-be skinners.

Cheers,
