Description I was in the middle of making a wallpaper and well i needed to make a magic circle thingy. So i thought i might as well make a short tutorial for it too. This is my first time making a tutorial, so i hope it's understandable. xD Ouh and there's music notes there because the wallpaper that im working on is musically-related. That's why i added in the music notes there. But you can always add other things like more triangles or any other pattern. Be creative. ;D
This was done in photoshopCS2. But you can also try it with other image editing programs too.

Did you ever figure out how to translate this tutorial into GIMP? ย I just discovered it, and I have no idea what to do in GIMP.

psychmeout In reply to Tsumerai-Kyon [2011-10-07 03:57:41 +0000 UTC]

This tutorial looks like it'd work in GIMP for the most part. The only thing I'm unsure of are all the symbols and text. Not sure how to curve them. The shortcuts are different, of course.
For a perfect circle in GIMP, hold down the shift button with the circle device. I just learned that one.

psychmeout In reply to Tsumerai-Kyon [2011-10-07 05:51:23 +0000 UTC]

The circle select tool. If you press shift it makes a perfect circle and then do add boarder and it makes a nice circle outline.
