Pixelmator is a really cool tool for image manipulations and editing. It is a really versatile tool for some photo manipulations and the new version of the tools, the 2.0 has a brand new text tool with more options. So I decided to create a light effect using Pixelmator.
In this tutorial I will show you how to create a really cool light effect playing with some photos and basic filters in Pixelmator. The effect is quite simple and it won't take you more than 30 minutes to achieve the same effect.
The wallpaper of this week is an image created by Genaro DeSia Coppola, an amazing and super talented illustrator from Barcelona, Venezuela. Genaro has this incredible 80's style. You will be able to see more of Genaro's work in the Abduzeedo Inspiration Guide for Designers as well.
