How do you save the processed image as a vector line at file?

[@PSDDude]

that's a very good question! what you have to do is rasterize the whole image, transform it to a vector image and save it as SVG for example. I've done a video on how to do that and at the end I'm showing how to save the result as a vector SVG file kzbin.info/www/bejne/eZvPdn6pe9ZlaNU&ab_channel=PSDDude

If your using GIMP, instead of Diffuse, it is Filter>Enhance>Noise Reduction.

good tip! thanks

[@ANDYWOUNDSABRXS]

thank you ! I wanted to just outline a pic an then colour it in as I feel .

It is an awesome video. Very easy to follow. However, to download the line art action, when I click the download it is asking me to install some Carbon browser. Do I need to install that to down load the free line action art? Please help.😀

[@PSDDude]

thanks! glad you enjoyed it. absolutely not! you don't need to download or install anything else, you've probably clicked on one of the ads.

Uff AMAZING, im starting with ebsynth animations and this is awesome for that, but one question, do I be able to draw above the image? lets say for example draw a wizard hat on the girl head. I was using gimp and im planning buy PS just because this. Saludos desde México! 🤗🎵

Never heard about ebsynth before. You can try MockoFun Doodler for quick drawing over images. Here's what I mean: kzbin.info/www/bejne/qoXYaKOHa52okKs

[@kafilimam2243]

@PSDDude How can I create a pic like the thumbnail? Half like this & half orginal

[@PSDDude]

first step is to subscribe to this channel :-) then, you need to follow the tutorial and create the line art drawing. add the original image on top and with the polygon selection tool make a selection of half of the screen. then simply click on the mask icon in the layers tab. this will create a mask out of your selection.

Is there any free source to download photoshop? Thanks

[@PSDDude]

No, as far as I know you cannot get Photoshop for free. But, there are free Photoshop alternatives like MockoFun you can try maybe

[@spamme1138]

gimp is probably the most famous free photoshop alternative. Also photoshop is one of the only adobe programs that you can buy a perpetual license and buy it alone so it may be worth it to buy it since it lasts forever. (There may be student discounts as well if you know any students).
