This is a great effect. It always reminds me of the scene from the movie “24 Hour Photo” when Robin Williams is standing in the aisle at the supermarket with his eyes closed. When he opens them, they are filled with blood. Very freaky!
Instructions:
1. Open a photo that has eyes in it in Photoshop.

2. Click the “Edit in Quick Mask Mode” button (or press Q).

3. Choose black from the swatches palette and select the Paint Brush Tool. Begin coloring in the eyes (when in Quick Mask Mode, your paint brush will paint a transparent red to indicate the masked area).

4. When the eyes are completely colored in, select “Edit in Standard Mode” button to exit Quick Mask mode.

5. Goto Select > Inverse to inverse the selection so that only the eyes are selected.

6. Goto Image > Adjustments > Color Balance.

7. Adjust the Red sliders under the Shadows and Midtones sections to add red to the selected eyes of the photo.

8. You should now have the entire eyes, including the cornea, filled with red.

9. Create a new layer and name it “Blood”.

10. Choose red from the swatches palette and select the Paint Brush tool. Set the opacity of the brush to 20%.

11. Begin coloring over the entire surface of the eye. Be sure not to lift up your brush as you paint over each eye so that it has an even opacity.

12. Create a new layer and name it “Drip”.

13. Choose a dark red color from the swatches palette and select the Paint Brush tool. Be sure that the opacity is set back to 100%. Then color in the drips of the blood at the bottom edge of the eyes.

14. Now choose a lighter shade of the same red and color the highlights on the drips.

15. Goto the Drip Layer, right click it and select “Blending Options”.

16. Select the Drop Shadow checkbox and set to the following values or until the shadow behind the blood drip looks convincing.

17. You are now done! You should have blood soaked eyes with a light shadow behind the drips for emphasis.

It’s common knowledge that our faces are not perfectly symmetrical and in some cases, we can see this just by looking closely in the mirror. However, wouldn’t it be interesting to see what your face looks like if it were perfectly symmetrical? You might be suprised how different your face would look.

Some have said that the resulting image looks like they would be their brother or sister, so it makes a great prank to do this to your friend’s photo and send it to them via email telling them that you may have found their long lost brother or sister.

Below, you will find a simple tutorial on how to take a photo of a person’s face and make it symmetrical. Have fun!
Instructions:
1. Open an image of a person’s face in Photoshop. The photo of the face has to be facing forward looking directly at the camera (3/4 or profile will not work for this tutorial).

2. Make sure that you photo is on it’s own layer above a white background.

2. Select the “Rectangular Marquee Tool” and select half the screen. Make sure that you the selection goes right down the middle of the face. Use the tip of the nose as a reference point for the halfway mark.

3. Click the “Delete” key to remove one half of the face.
4. Duplicate the layer of this “half face” by dragging the layer to the “Create a New Layer” icon in the layers palette (or CTRL+J).
5. With the new top layer selected, goto Edit > Transform > Flip Horizontal.

6. Select the Move tool. Holding down the Shift key, drag the top layer so that it matches with the underlying layer and creates your symmetrical face.

7. Last thing to do is get rid of the symmetrical hair. To do this, simply copy and paste the hair from the original photo onto a new layer in your symmetrical face photo.
8. You may need to use the Free Transform option (CTRL + T) to get the hair to fit the shape of the head.

Step-By-Step Instructions:
1. Open in Photoshop the photograph of a person whose white teeth are displayed.

2. Click the “Edit in Quick Mask Mode” toggle button.

3. Select the Paint Brush tool and choose black as your color.
4. Zoom in on the teeth and paint over them. (When you are in Quick Mask Mode, the paint will be a transparent red).

6. Goto Select > Inverse. The teeth should now be selected.

7. Goto Image > Adjustments > Color Balance.
8. Adjust the bottom slider under Midtones to “Yellow”. Do this for the Shadows also.
9. The bright teeth should now be nicotine yellowish color.

Summary:
In this tutorial, we’ll learn to take a new photograph and give it all the elements of an old, aged photograph.

Step-By-Step Instructions:
1. Open up a new photograph in Photoshop.

2. Goto Image > Adjustments > Desaturate. This will make the photograph black and white.

3. Goto Image > Adjustments > Color Balance. Slide the bottom slider to the Yellow side. This will give the photo a sepia look.

Summary:
This tutorial shows how to add a date stamp to a photograph. To do this tutorial, you will need a font that looks similar to the kind used by cameras when creating date stamps. For that reason, we have included the Digital Readout Upright font for you to download. Right click here on Date Font, then choose Save As. Unzip the font and then copy the font into your fonts folder. The next time you open Photoshop, the “Digital Readout Upright” font should be available for you to use.

As a disclaimer, this tutorial is not intended to be used maliciously to deceive others about the actual time that a certain photograph was taken.
Step-By-Step Instructions:
1. Open in Photoshop the photograph that you would like to add a date stamp too.

2. Select the Type Tool.
3. Choose a shade of Orange as your font color.
4. Click the dropdown box for the font and choose the “Digital Readout Upright” that you downloaded from the Summary above in this tutorial.

5. Click in the bottom right corner of the photograph and type a date.
The most convincing date format is: [day][space][month][apostrophe][two-digit-year].
So an example of April 16, 2001 would look like: 16 4’01. (See below)

6. You should now have your date stamp!

Take a photo of a person and give them zombie eyes!
Instructions:
1. Open a photo of a person in Photoshop that is looking at the camera.

2. Select the Clone Stamp tool.

3. Begin clone stamping the white areas of color around the pupil and retina. Clone stamp over the entire eye, trying your best to keep as little variation in color as possible. It doesn’t have to be perfect, because we’ll blend it better in the next steps.

4. Now select the Smudge tool. Make sure the Strength is somewhere below 50%.

5. Using the smudge tool, begin pushing in the darker color from the outside into the inside of the eye. So that it leads from color to the white. This will give the eye a rounded effect and look more convincing.

Summary:
In this tutorial, we’ll walk through the steps on how to increase the bustline or breast size of a person in a photograph. Keep in mind, this tutorial will work better when the starting photograph is a large resolution sized photograph. The reason for this is because the resulting final image will be smaller than it first starts out.

Step-By-Step Instructions:
1. In Photoshop, open a photograph of a woman whose bustline is visible onto a new layer. The background layer should be white.

2. Goto Layer > Duplicate Layer… and click OK when the pop-up appears.
3. Turn off the lower layer by clicking the “Eye” icon in the layers palette.

4. Select the eraser tool and erase everything except the bustline.

5. Turn back on the lower layer by clicking the “Eye” icon in the layers palette.
6. Make sure the bottom layer is active and click CTRL+T to enter into Free Transform mode.
7. Use a corner shape handle while holding down the shift key and drag to shrink the image.

8. Click the top layer with just the bustline. Move it over where the bust should go.
9. With the top layer still active, goto Filter > Liquify.
10. When the Liquify screen appears, click the checkbox at the bottom right that says “Show Backdrop”.

11. Now select an appropriate size brush and begin pushing the areas of the bust so that they match with the background photo. Notice in the image below how I match the lines of the bikini top with the lines of bikini on the photo underneath.

12. Click OK to accept your changes in Liquify and return to the main canvas.
13. We’re almost finished. Select the Smudge tool, set the strength to around 30%. Then smudge the skin from the top layer to blend with the photograph on the lower layer.
14. Finally, goto Layer > Flatten Image and you’re done!

1. Open in Photoshop, the photo of the person you want to thin the waist.

2. Goto Layer > Duplicate Layer… Click Ok to accept the defaults.
3. With the new layer active, goto Filter > Liquify.
4. The Liquify window appears. Select an appropriate size brush and push the love handles and waist inwards on both sides.

5. When you are done pushing the love handles and waisteline inwards, click OK to get your new thinner waiste.

6. If background gets warped in the Liquify process, then just use the Clone Stamp tool to fix any inconsistencies. You can also opt to cut the person’s figure out completely and have them on a white background to avoid any issues with warped backgrounds in the image.

1. Open in Photoshop, a person who has normal looking eyes.

2. First of all, the main attribute to seductive eyes is based on the eyebrows. The thinner and higher they go, the more seductive.
3. So let’s start by changing the eyebrows, by going to Filter > Liquify.
4. The Liquify window appears. Choose an appropriate size brush for manipulating the eyebrows.
5. Begin by pushing the eyebrows at an upward angle, then push them down a bit at the very ends.

6. Still in Liquify window, select a small brush size. Zoom into the eyes and push the eyes up a bit (so that there is visible whiteness of the eye on the bottom).

7. Click OK to exit the Liquify screen and return to your image.
8. Create a new layer. Name it “Eye Liner”.
9. Choose black as your foreground color.
10. Select the Brush tool and choose a small brush size.

12. Select the Smudge tool. Set the Strength to 25% in the options bar at the top.
13. Begin smudging the thin black line around the eye. Smudge away from the eye to give the illusion of eye lashes.

14. Do this with both eyes. (Step 9 through 13).

15. Create a new layer. Name it “Eye Shadow”.
16. choose black as your foreground color.
17. Select the Brush tool and choose a slighly larger brush size.

7. Zoom in on the face and begin painting over the freckles to remove them (or technically paint over them).
