Icons of the Night

Alright, so I'm in Photoshop 7.0 working on an animation request for a different site. The animation is huge, at least 6 MB -and I have it all prepped and pretty. So, I go to Jump To > Image Ready 7.0, and I turn the layers into frame. I delete the frames with the background, border, text, and adjustments, leaving me just the animation part. Now, I want to make the background visible for the first frame. I click on the eye- And it doesn't become visible. Same with the border layer. However, the text and adjustments are allowed to toggle between visible and invisible. Is it because the file is freaking huge? Any thoughts, it's driving me mad?

Screenshot can be provided.

How can you do something like this?

I see that it might be two images, with threshold applied to one of them. However, whenever I try threshold it never looks that nice. It always looks scratchy and it's never smooth. Can anyone direct me to a tutorial for this kind of effect?

Hi everyone, I used to have this "guide to color layers" memmed at my journal. Unfortunately, the journal has been deleted, and I was wondering if anyone saved the entire jpeg image?

( Here is part of the picture )

Or, if anyone has other guides that resemble this, it would be of tremendous help! THANK YOU!!

EDITED:

I'm tying to have a glow all around my image kind of like this. I tried layer > blending options > outerglow and it didn't work at all. was also told by a friend to do select > load selection > modify > expand and then copy the layer and set it to overlay. Then your supposed go to the blending options to do outer glow, but that's where I run into a problem. This doesn't give me the nice softness that my example pic has, it's more like a white marshmallow blob. Here's what I'm getting for reference.


Can anyone please tell me how to do this correctly in Photoshop? Or what options I need to be using to get that softness.

I've been trying to achieve this coloring myself and I can't get it to look right, it ends up looking pinkish/purplish. Can anyone throw some ideas my way or point me in the direction of a tutorial? I'm using Photoshop CS3

First and second icons by all_at_once

Sorry guys, I know it's kind of annoying, but I need help if anyone knows when to find this tut. I already checked some master lists and I can't find it.

It's from either 06/07, the icon itself is a lost icon with a big green mountain in the bg. The icon has like 3 color layers (a light blue, light pink, and light purple) and I believe it's for PS7

If anyone could help me locate this I'd really, really appreciate it. Thanks guys.

How would I create a border like the one featured on this layout? http://t-swift.com/pictures/index.php
I use GIMP 2.2.6.

How can you get from the original, to the outcome? It was made by charleswhatnow.
