I've got a couple of Photoshop books and neither one explained paths as clearly and in a less intimating fashion as this tutorials. Excellent.

Thanks, I always try to write with beginner Photoshop users in mind. There's plenty of tutorials out there for people who already know what they're doing, but they're not very useful for people who are still trying to learn the basics.

Thanks Eli, and thanks to you or whoever was kind enough to correct my mistake in the title. I appreciate it.

That would have made more sense! Excellent tutorial in my opinion, by the way.

Okay, so the title was supposed to say "Photoshop Classic Effect". My bad.

Straight from the source: I don't mind similar tutorials that much. There are some where it gets bothersome... signature tutorials with the same old effects come to mind, but if it's a relatively unique tutorial that someone has already touched upon, I'm fine with listing it as long as it's not a blatant rip, obviously. There are a lot of people who visit Good-Tutorials, but some don't come every day to see every new tutorial.

So you're right on the money, radicalrom. :)

You will find most tutorials are some sort of similar to other ones out there on the web. I do not have a problem with new tutorials about the same subject.

Go do a seach for "Fire Text" on the major tutorial sites and you find a lot of different tutorials. Most of them are similar steps due to the fact that certain areas have to be done to accomplish a certain result.

As long as wording, pictures are not ripped from the other tutorial, I do not have a problem with new tutorials about the same subject. There are 2 main reasons I do not have a problem with the same subject covered. 1). Maybe the person never saw the first tutorial, so this is new to them. 2). Certain people have a knack for writing tutorials. I know personally there have been subjects that I could not follow, because it was poorly written. That is when I look for the second or third tutorial about the same subject.

I enjoyed the tutorial and appreciate Trakoiram making it available. If the mods are going to point out every tutorial that is the same or similar to others, you will be quite busy making those comments as there are quite a few related tutorials out there and at this site as well. If the tutorial has been accepted by good-tutorials then comments such as the mod made should not be put in the public view.

xiao, there is much more tutorials similiar to others, not only these two, and one more time, these two aren't identical, so when any is ripped, then they can be two accepted. And so, this one is good tutorial anyway. i thing it could reach first page...

I had the same idea as zasul. I'm not accusing anyone of anything. I'm just saying that there's already a tutorial like that in the database. A 2nd one isn't needed imo.
