Hello everyone,
Here, you can put your works on display (kindly use online media hosting sites and post links here).
Feel free to put your queries, post links to your favorite online tutorials.
Kindly mention the credits in your posts wherever necessary.

Here, are my best Photoshopped works till date:
1. *img31.imageshack.us/img31/3640/chromecopyb.jpg
2. *img840.imageshack.us/img840/844/canoncopy.jpg

Unfortunately, the former got destroyed and now it would take nearly a month to manipulate it all again from scratch. This was inspired by "Robotic Frog" tutorial, I don't exactly remember where I had seen it.

The latter is completely painted in Photoshop ( a to z, from scratch), in loving memory of my Canon Powershot SX120 IS. The inspiration here came from a Psdtuts+ | Adobe Photoshop tutorials, from beginner to advanced. tutorial.
The author had recreated a Nikon cam there.

pen tablet or mouse?
By mouse. I don't have a pen tablet, but desire to get one soon. :smile:
Its actually not that difficult to do such manipulations only with mouse.
If you know the next step and "how to do it".. you can do it easily even with basic devices.

Here a cool quick tip for you.
Making a realistic paper texture in Photoshop:
1. Open a new document with white background.
2. On a new layer, use a black to white gradient with mode set on "Difference", on different angles (go crazy!).
3. Now when you've got an interesting pattern, go to Filter > Stylize > Emboss to give it a greyish color.
4. On the white background layer, use the burn tool with a large soft brush to make the paper look dirty.
5. Set the pattern layer's blending mode to Overlay.
This now looks like real paper folds.
