We are very impressed by that method. We will try to programm it as "background maker" for our photobooks.

Is this serious? Your idea of a tutorial on making a smoke effect can be summarized into two steps:

Make random blurry shapes.

Liquefy them into swirly blurry shapes.

. . .

Next week! Smoke part 2!

1. Copy smoke from image
2. Paste smoke from image.

Where can I dL the psd file?

I wanna say that all of you at Abduzeedo have been so helpful to me. I love Photoshop and I wouldn't know half the stuff I know with out this site. I would just like to thank you for all of your awesome, helpful, and inspirational posts.

Thank yall so much!

me too here! :D

Nice article! thanks for the tutorial :)

Great post!!!

It is very nice tutorials for every photoshop student. Thanks a lot!

Actually, a bit of explanation would have made this a useful tutorial. For instance, what in the heck was done with Liquify? I tried every which way but Sunday to figure it out, finally giving up.

I can't get it to work on a white background... PlZ HELP ME!!!!!!!!

Extremely nice tutorial though

Nice tutorial! I like it a lot. :)

Actually, a bit of explanation would have made this a useful tutorial. For instance, what in the heck was done with Liquify? I tried every which way but Sunday to figure it out, finally giving up.

For what it's worth I don't mind that you didn't go into super detail on every step like some people have complained that you haven't. Many of these steps (like how to use layer styles) require the user to have prior knowledge and everyones results will vary

Thanks a lot for the tutorial.

Very beautiful

waaaaaaw
Thanks for effort ...
He Fantastic

Great Yah Simple but effective ! keep it up!

sweeeeeeeeet

Nice, simply, and to the point!

I have to say, as a web designer myself, I appreciate all of your tutorials. Thanks to people like you the web design community has, and continues, to grow rapidly - and progressing technology along the way.

Thank you!

nice tutorial ..... ive just recently started fooling around with photoshop n ive been creating smoke and flames using basic brush and smudge tool with blending effects(works well too, even if time hogging) .... i like this way ... thanks

awesome!!!
ive tried it and produced stunning results..
explained very well man.. keep them coming!!

Cheers
aLee

I can't imagine that it can be done by me. I will try for sure. Very beautiful. Digged!

Cool stuff... keep it coming.

i got lost between step 3 and 4!

really good smoke tutorial, the smoke you made more looks like thick smoke like we say of cigarette or cigar i really like the effect i am making a dragon and this smoke effect will help me =)

Nice tutorial, but it's still not really like smoke.

I will not enter in math subjects, but I can say in an intuitive way: the result miss that "disturbed appearence" the real smoke has. Clouds has it too, but smoke usually has it even more.

Clouds have not exactly the same math properties smoke has, but here you can have an idea about what I'm saying (there's a text made of clouds, but it was not made in photoshop): http://picturetopeople.blogspot.com/2008/06/artistic-effects-for-text.html

I believe with some more work you can get it perfect. Anyway, very nice work.

Thank you for sharing your knowledge with all of us. I wish you best luck

It’s very good article. Great site with very good look and perfect information. I like it too.

That's pretty amazing for Photoshop. Great tutorial. Have you tried it with a white background? I'd love to see if it had a translucent effect.

really nice guide
thx u!

Good one!!! so simple as that!!

This is incredibly helpful. It would be interesting if you could show how to do this with a different background – say, on a picture or something. With a black background it looks really nice, but it would be nice if there was some way we could make it more realistic or interesting with a real background picture of sorts. Great tutorial – I'm going to be checking out the others on this site.

you don't explain anything at all in this tutorial it is a cool trick...but you suck at teaching it. i suggest you re-do this whole tutorial, so people are able to do it.

keep going...you've done a great job to share us this tricky tricks

Holly cow !!!
Fantastic tip! Make it look so simple ... How didn't I think of that? :)

simply brilliant. Thanks a bunch mate.

For what it's worth I don't mind that you didn't go into super detail on every step like some people have complained that you haven't. Many of these steps (like how to use layer styles) require the user to have prior knowledge and everyones results will vary

Great tutorial for beginner. Thx.

Great tutorial. Thancks for sharing.

Thank you for the excellent tutorial..It really easy and great work.

Super tutorial. Thanks!

this was a quickie ! nice one !

These works would be very cool if you added the word hemp. What do you think? I like your final result with smoother lines (more brushing).

Good Effects

Please can someone help me with this? I made exactly those steps, but i dont get the sharpness, when i liquify it. What settings do you reccomend for the tools and such things. The effect is so very awesome, but as i said if i liquify it, i just get very many patters of smoke, some fields with som lines at the end. i am a grafik designer and do this job for like 10 years, but i still not figured out how to get this sharpnes, out of liquify, and how to remove the whole oher crap that stays if you liquify.

thanks. please comment just after me and i will read it!!!!!!!

Now that is cool ...

That's pretty amazing for Photoshop. Great tutorial. Have you tried it with a white background? I'd love to see if it had a translucent effect.

Wow, cool man, big thanks! http://oqklslycixd.com

Amazing effects!

Awesome work v impressed

I use the models from Maya sometimes for quicker 3d effects

have been using Photoshop since version 5.0 and have done many professional projects with it, and have years of classes on it, and even I cannot figure out how your image changed so drastically by simply 'repositioning the shapes'. The effect is great, but you are horrible at making tutorials

just superb..

Very good job !

thanks

Good job man. thanx from New Zealand

It really easy and great work.

Why did I never think of that.... *tut* Nice way of doing it brah.

Thanks for this very good article. I use this to my home work to school. Can I translate this with all comments and insert on my site? Thanks

Very nice. Look forward to trying this out.

respekt, eine sehr aschöne Grafik

Or you can just shoot smoke in front of a black or blue paper with your digital camera. It will take you a minute or two. :)

thank you so much

Cara, juro que li TODOS seus tutoriais no site PSDTuts e nunca imaginei que vc era brasileiro, até vir aqui na sua home. Fiquei muito feliz e orgulhoso!

Seus trabalhos são ótimos e os tutoriais impecáveis! Parabéns mesmo!

Um grande abraço e muito sucesso!

Mário.

Thanks for the information.Took me a while to work it out to be honest

Thanks for the help in using photoshop. i am new to it, and love it, but it can be hard to use at times.

Wow excellent

wanderfull design man great photoshop document ;)

Regards

Wow... this is a very good photoshop tutorial. Unfortunately, I do not have photoshop at home. So, I am going to adapt this tutorial for GIMP.

Tank you for the excellent tutorial

Greets from Germany

I enjoy working in photoshop and was wondering if you could find other backgrounds to use for your image of smoke.

I always asked myself how such gfx are made - now i know- great Site man!

You have to laugh at the people complaining about this tutorial - no good deed goes unpunished. The only step I wasn't sure about was "4 - Positioning the shapes" not sure you mean by that.

Great tut though.

Stop lying!

You ARE an expert.

Thanks for the cool tut.

Really helpful and explained clearly.

Great tutorial. thanks.

thanks a lot

Beautiful moving with shining effects !!..

This is the worst tutorial i've ever seen. You really need to explain things in a bit more depth. Your screenshots aren't very big, and it can be hard to see what your doing, you don't type much so for beginners its hard to know how to create the effect.
Great effect but terrible tutorial.

Thank you

worst tutorial i've ever seen

I have been using Photoshop since version 5.0 and have done many professional projects with it, and have years of classes on it, and even I cannot figure out how your image changed so drastically by simply 'repositioning the shapes'. The effect is great, but you are horrible at making tutorials

Really neat. It is amazing the things you can do with photoshop with a good knowledge of the tool and a great deal of imagination.

It would make an interseting painting also but it would take me much more than 30-40 minutes to paint it.

This tutorial is very sweet; thanks for posting it. The great thing about this tutorial is the simplicity. I simply hate complex, hard to follow tutorials!

Whoa..nice Tips.... :-) & nice result

I loved it and found it simple and easy to use

Hello! Good Site! Thanks you! bkbnnhdpbzch

This tutorial is too hard for beginners.
The step with the liquify filter is impossible.
I followed all the steps, but my final result looks like crap.

I was wondering how some of these cool effects were done in Photoshop, thank you for sharing.

Hammm… Nice article… Interesting. .....

So cool. you are so talent.
rarely to see anybody so good at photoshop@

This is probably one of the sweetest photoshop tutorials I've ever seen.

Great tutorial! Thanks for teaching a novice like me to create a flash smoke!

Love to see your works, they are easiy to read and understand. Look forward for more!

imagination is very important to do that.runescape money

There are many useful informations in this article. Thanks and greetings from Thuringia!

Can one Paul Revere the step by step starting from adding the color to the scale of the shape. This with constancy help the beginners who can't understand the planning function to bring into being this signal artwork.

not very hard and the effect on my computer is good .thank you.runescape gold

Sweet tutorial thanks, the smoke ffects i generated are pretty cool.

I loved it and found it simple and easy to use..thanks so much!

Hi!

I'll try to implement this to my website ( revientate.com.mx ), so, although im brand new using photoshop.

thanks for sharing

thank you

Nice tutorial, but it is not well guided. you should have posted more printscreens since visual communication is much much better than writing notes!!

This is really hard to do. There really is no detailed information on how to create the smoke. My smoke ends up looking like a satin sheet.

WOW. Your way is the best!
I'v been using this one http://www.noscope.com/journal/2007/05/photoshop-howto-smoke
but your is much-much better. The only difference is Gaussian blur at the beginning but the EFFECT!.. :)

Cool tutorial, nice smoke !
booty bass

I loved your smoke idea, I was wandering if you had ever taught this tecnique to a large group ( my husband is an Art teacher) if so do you have any ideas on how to convey information to students without taking 20hrs to get through the first step. Also your photos are great how long were you in Europe? Have you ever been to China? We went in the Summer of 07 awesome trip not bad on the wallet either if you live in the States 1 U.S dollar to 7 Yuen

In fact, not all tutorials are for beginers but when some steps of it are not mentioned and the users results are not good, wich happened with me, the perception that one can get is that the guy who showed this didn't quite apply himself explainig as he should.
And tutorials are all 'bout that: gettin' someone to understand - perfectly - how to create something new and complete!!
This effect is fantastic but if I cannot do it and ask for a tutorial I wouldn't suggest this one.
There are some parts missing: Settings for the Liquify effect, the Cloud step was not quite good explained and even the gradient step! I was confuse if I have to make that on the cloud or on the background...

Ugg, I spent three hours today trying to make realistic smoke. I wish I'd found this earlier. Many of your steps are the same ones I came up with, it would have saved mucho time. Oh well, live and learn.

For what it's worth I don't mind that you didn't go into super detail on every step like some people have complained that you haven't. Many of these steps (like how to use layer styles) require the user to have prior knowledge and everyones results will vary. Highly detailed steps would have made the tutorial four times as long and seem much too complicated. Not all tutorial are for absolute beginners.

wow , great work

Thank You for contributory passing unprolific article. It’s really good in longhand and I fully be dying to symposium You on main issue, btw. I entailed say that I really enjoyed verve all of Your posts. It’s unromantic to recite ideas, and observations slugout nerves body else’s wise of view… it makes you think composite. So opt try to keep up the big shield all the the Promised Land. Greetings

excellent tutorial, just tried it for myself. my smoke doesnt quite look as good as yours, but with a little practice im sure i'll get better at it. Thanks

Thanks! Thanks! Thanks! And it´s not too hard...

Whats looks realy good. thanks

It's a very good tutorial... I managed to do all the steps with minor difficulties...
But, um, this sucks for beginners. It's WAY too hard for someone new at Photoshop, and you should consider the fact that many people just try to learn by reading tutorials like this one...
Actually, it ain't much of a tutorial since 99% of the tutorial, it doesn't explain how to do the effects..

P.D.
Beginners can go to http://www.photoshopessentials.com/

Good lesson, you master of photoshop !
Regards, jazz music

Can someone post the step by step starting from adding the color to the layer of the shape. This will help the beginners who can't understand the procedure to create this wonderful artwork.

very good site
DVD

Very interesting one, in fact I already tried it when I read this tutorial- very cool, nice post you know.

It’s very good article. Great site with very good look and perfect information.

This effect rocks. Thanks for your tutorial.

can you do this with photoshop 7.0?

love it.

Interesting info
Thanks for article

Shit. Cant follow. Vague Instructions

I loved it and found it simple and easy to use..thanks so much!!!

This tutorial is too cemental for beginners.
The consecutive intervals with the liquify bleed is impossible.
I followed all the acts, but my coming result looks like crap. :(
I mind you need to do a video and then put it on youtube.

this thing sucks, i'll give someone a 100 bucks if you can make it work, by just using this cats directions

thanks for your some information

It’s very good article. Great site with very good look and perfect information.

Hi. actually i am looking for a tutorial to learn photoshop in online. i have seen that this is the best tutorial i shall join to learn practically and easily. wonderful clear explanation of how to create smoke through photoshop. Great.

Wonderful Tutorial i enjoyed reading it, thanks for sharing with us!

Thank you for sharing your knowledge!! good tutorial! :)

Great tutorial! Got a little confused at the bit where you had to put a background colour on the layer but apart from that I found it pretty easy to follow!

I like how you left it quite vague as it made mine turn out to be completely different to yours.

How come I never knew this... WTF

Very unclear.

Remember if you're going to make a tutorial, make sure it is easy to follow and less vague. Not everyone who checks out this site is a pro in photoshop!

This is great it really helped alot and it wasn't even that hard to do and it took only a couple minutes.... great job :)

I LIKE THE EFFECT YOU DID, BUT I FEEL YOU ARE NOT TELLING COMPLETE STEPS

this tutorial does suck,, im a beginner, and i dont kow how to make shapes ETC. maybe next time buddy

This looks like blue fire more than smoke. :) But tutorial good

THIS IS NOT DETAILED AT ALL.. im a beginner and i dont know how to make the shapes.. or get to the liquify filter.. This sucks

mare shecherie, frate. slabut de tot. mai invata si mai exerseaza

What ever scripts you are runing on this page are making my computer burp. The page runs very slowly but looks nice.. :-)

Thanks a lot man! I've never thought it could be so easy! I think I'll use your smoke effect on my movie downloads site's design.

thank you webmaster very good sites

well done!

Great post. I have a constant battle with clients that have all these great ideas on design and want them implemented even though I try to tell them this will make it very difficult for a visitor to figure out and navigate the site.

power of the smoke and THE ONE of the one of of the way of the one of)

thanks for your some information i proud you

Very nice ....thanks

This tutorial is too hard for beginners.
The step with the liquify filter is impossible.
I followed all the steps, but my final result looks like crap. :(
I think you should do a video and then put it on youtube.

Gud tutorial.

pretty cool! i´ll try this!

very cool effect but theres a whole bunch of stuff i dont get like after you liquify the lines became much more narrow and you just say positioning...and then all of a sudden the background becomes black...even when i put the render cloud thing up it covers the whole layer...can you please do it in more detail...for us beginners lol

It's wonderful! Big thanks!

super I love it.

one question how do u position the shapes?

What ever scripts you are runing on this page are making my computer burp.. you might want to check this out.... kk

Straight to the point, i like that, nice tutorial. And, as I see, it aint for lazy people...

Thank you for this tutorial, it's exactly what I was looking for! :)

cool.....sexy....effect

This was a really cool tutorial. I heard there was a better cs2 tutorial but this tops that one in my opinion! Thanks!

Sweet effect! I love it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

nice tutorial, short and sweet :) to all those who are moaning about it being too hard, some things are when you first start out with any app. Go learn the software and stop expecting to be spoon fed. Use the filters and steps provided and have a play.

I can't wait to see the screencast of this as I'm no pro and I'm struggling finishing this tutorial.

good job but bad explain

Wow...I realy like your style. I love photoshop and have just begun to learn what can be achieved.

I have bought serveral photoshop books and I find your instructions easier to follow than the books.

My pictures don't turn out as nice as yours, but it has nothing to do with not being able to follow your instructions.

The fact that you actually let people download your PSD files blows my mind.

Your site is my favorite photoshop site and I will be coming back for more. I appreaciate your site very much and have fun with the projects that you provide on your site.

For me its all about what is pleasing to the eye. the fact that your smoke does not look exactly like smoke is the point.

You want smoke that looks like a picture to take one. If you want something that looks good, put some artistic talent behind it and you get what you created on your site.

Thank you!

Muchas gracias me salvaste con el efecto de humo como para poder terminar un trabajo, después le muestro como quedó. saludos. julio

Great tutorial! The tutorial is probably not meant for someone who knows nothing about Photoshop. Its for people that have some common knowledge of the program.
All though I am new to Photoshop, I was a paint shop pro user. I could figure out the tutorial. So to all who are complaining so much, you just aren't ready for this tut yet. You need to go to the adobe site, they have tutorials for those who just got the program. It shouldn't take you too much time to get good at the program if you put as much energy into learning it as you do to insulting people. Use google to look up easy tutorials.
Thank you for the great tutorial! It was easy to me, and I am blond.lol Of course I have common sense, something some of the other posters seem to be lacking!

this was so hard it got on my nerve it gets a fucking F from me at dsa

Well, thanks for the comments again. I know that some people might find this tutorial a bit hard, but it's not an expert level tutorial, I didn't add a lot of images explaining in details because there is the PSD file, there it's possible to see how the layers work, the blurs and stuff like that.

About how the random shapes, they were created with the pen tool. You could use a brush as well...

how did you make the random shapes?

Gud tutorial

I could not follow your directions. It needs to be more clear, step by step, if you want people new to PS to be your student.

agreed with him you left so many importants details out

Wow... completely useless. Looks awesome, but you left out so much of the important stuff in the steps, it's amazing.

This trick is all about the details and you've left them all out.

:(

Wow! Great effect but easy !
Thanks

Firstly I'd like to say thanks for the comments, I really appreciate them.

Secondly I want to say that since this post made front page at digg my site has been suffering serious problems, the guys at dreamhost.com where it's hosted sent me some emails telling me that they had to apply restrictions to my ip because of the massive number of simultaneous visits.

Also, I've read that some people are saying that I didn't deeply explain some steps and the tutorial is not for beginners. In order to satisfy those I will publish a screencast which will show all steps of the tutorial.

Thanks again

Thanks for the tutorial.

I'm with wardrich on this - would really like to see this presented at a beginner level - I only occasionally play with photoshop and it's not entirely clear to me how to replicate the effect that you've created (which I'd really like to be able to do as it looks so cool!)

This tutorial looks cool, but you need to do a bit more documentation on it... for example, HOW did you use layers? Did you merge the shapes to one?

What value did you find worked best with the Gaussian blur? How did you use the liquify tool?

I suppose for the more artistic folk, this tutorial is good... but for beginners, this is a bit of a shot in the dark...

Regardless, your finished product looks awesome, so I'm going to keep trying until I get it. :P

Outstanding. I am learning photoshop (for two years he he) and collecting tutorials and this is one of the more exciting. Thanks for sharing!

I didn't know that smoke was as simple as that to make. Nice job!

Very nice tutorial, thanks!

very interesting tutorial I'm sure this could be applied in many different ways.

This looks similar to a fire tutorial I've seen online. It's easy enough to follow the steps but the quality of the image you're left with is contingent on your skill with the liquify tool. Nothing against your tutorial...I think it looks cool but I just needed to make that point. Besides which, though it does look cool I don't think it really looks that much like smoke.

this was a quickie ! nice one !

nicely done, thanks for the tutorial.

Awesome, got to try this technique today.

That's pretty amazing for Photoshop. Great tutorial. Have you tried it with a white background? I'd love to see if it had a translucent effect.

Now that is cool ...

Nice tutorial! I like it a lot. :)
