This has to be the best tutorial for GIMP that I have seen so far. Those tutorials from Gimptalk require much less experience, and the outcomes don't really impress me. So Kam, I'm realling looking forward in seeing more of your tutorials.

SURE! Press Ctrl L and a little window w layers will show up. Click on the layer w the gradient map on the little pop-up window, and on the top where it saysMode: and its in "normal" click and on the scrolling list and choose "Soft Light"... in the same pop-up window there is a little slide button that says Opacity, scroll it to the left till u get a very soft coloration.
hope that helped

C4D are 3d sbstract renders... and yes... when used like in this tut they make the BG look like in the 4th pic... just google image C4D and u'll find a bunch

this is a good example of one:

Yeah, on the left it gives you a + sign. You can click and drag parts of the C4D with it and then press okay.

These are really nice tuts, Kamionero. Here's my outcome for the Wario one:



I didn't add the 2 c4ds in one of the steps and the vertical rectangle on the side.

The white dots around Yoshi is from a couple of white splatter brushes and a bit of brushing with a 3 px brush set with some scattering and an outer glow. Yeah, the text is kinda wierd.

well im done i kno it wasnt wario but w/e it sucks honestly i didnt use gradient for the hand like you did cuz every time i tried it would fill up too much and i couldnt see the BG



please tell me step by step what i did wrong + i didnt kno if i was suposed to keep the image ancored or not. most chances it came out like this bcuz 1 i was soooo confused and frustrated at the same time so i skipped some parts like 17 preety much til i put the border and text (yes i got that impatientfurious) well maybe if im not following somthing step by step i might have made it look alot better not good at following stuff step by step as you all can see sadconfused

Always anchor ur selection! as soon as u have it whene u want anchor it.
Hmmm... it looks like u sharpened too much, and some llayers seem to be on Dodge instead od screen or soft light...
also needs a little dessaturation.... go lo layers>Hue saturation and on the Saturation bar lower it a little bit till is not that bright colored

taken from the gimp tut:

How to install Brushes

Okay, so I was asked this yesterday on how to install brushes and if I remember correctly when I was a noob at GIMP, I didn't even know how to install brushes until DE showed me through PM lolz. Here you will find a list of 7 steps, all screencapped on how to install brushes*:

Step 1 - Right-Click on the GIMP icon on your desktop and click on Properties

STep 2 - Click "Find Target"

Step 3 - Click GIMP-2.0 on the left side.

Step 4 - Click on the folder called Share

Step 5 - Click on the folder called GIMP

Step 6 - Click on the folder 2.0

Step 7 - Click on the Brushes folder

* Please make sure that before doing any of these steps that you DOWNLOAD and EXTRACT the files first before performing any of these steps. The steps included are for Windows XP. I don't how it's done for any other system.

the brushes I usedd are called Charcoal.. but I cant find them anymore...

these should work fine

i extracted the files and everything and put it in the folder but nothing happened. is it because i put it in the brushes folder in the gimp-2.2.0 folder?

ACtually looks good!
one thing tho! Dont save it as a .GIF cause the quality really goes down, save it as a .PNG and it'll look much better.
also, if u wanna save the unfinished product and all the layers, save it as an .XCF
