This is one of the channels that gave me the courage to start my KZbin channel 6 months ago about self development. Now I have 496 subs and > 100 hours of watch time. I know it’s not comparable with others but I’m still proud I started because I’ve been learning so many lessons that I could haven’t learned without getting started in the 1st place.

[@articreator]

Thank you bro, keep going!

[@kanakTheGold]

Power to you Bro! Any pro tips on how to increase your views and appear more frequently and more prominently on recommendations and feeds of the audience, thereby increasing the reach ?

[@VIEIR4x]

What an amazing video, sorry I don't speak English haha ​​but just watching what was done I managed to understand thank you very much

[@wwezord]

To the person who is reading this, don't give up on your KZbin channel. Keep going it's going to get better.

[@AdeiWeb3]

Thanks! Very useful. Pro tip - if you have a sharp edge and can't paint it very well due to hand movement, select the object and paint on the layer Arti told us to, if the object is selected you won't be able to paint outside the edge, you can get a really crisp Finnish.

[@bumkailashkumar]

To draw glowing effect around me 1. New layer 2. paint bucket tool 3. put black color in the back (main character only with text if any rest black) 4. New layer press hold alt and place mouse cursor in between layers an arrow mark will be shown as connected 5. select 6. then click on create new fill or adjustment layer icon & choose gradient map 7. again alt & place mouse cursor to connect layers 8. all the layers should be connected now 9. now change the color of the gradient map from top properties by clicking on that 10.select black layer & select screen 11. just above the black layer, we will draw a glow effect 12.select brush tool & select white light size should be 25px hardness 0% and smoothness 32% 13. move the photo under the black layer

[@teddysmith1435]

Following this fixed my issue. You need to change color from black to white.

4. New layer press hold alt and place mouse cursor in between layers an arrow mark will be shown as connected This not working on my pc Im holding ALT and place cursor between layers. Its only copying the layer to new one.
