I'm looking to achieve an effect similiar to these to examples: http://www.weworkforthem.com/wwf… Trademarks, Human or http://www.ghava.com/index2.html… Five, then click three times for the MadLib ad, it's kinda hard to see but it looks similiar to the stuff on WWFT, is it streamline, halftoning, what? The ad is in issue 4 of complex that I know of...thanx!

The madlib ad is in the GH ava section.

I don't know how others might do it, but for the WWFT example I would first make the vector graphic of the heads as solids, and then make a mask with that varying width line style...

You obviously don't know what I'm talking about, it's not flash, but thanks for your smart ass reply anyway.

open photoshop
open an image
covert it to black and white
convert it to bitmap
leave resolution output as 72
method = halftone screen
press ok
frequency = 8 or you can do a trial and error thing to figure what you like
angle = 35, 45
shape = linepresto!congratulations!
you are a trend whore!

TNDAP, maybe I'm el stupido, but I'm not sure what effect you are trying to achieve. Could you explain in detail?
- unknown0
dude, even overlaying a pattern on your jawnie would work good.
- ovalle0
he wants that line effect like in the WWFT human logo
- frow0
Oh, dang. Won't a simple, horizontal line marquis in Pshop do the trick?

Thank you all for helping me and it's just for a flyer I'm not doing a whole web site or ad campaign this way. Trend whore you are hilarious, if it was up to me I'd draw the thing, there was a sketch in the background I drew, but they want to use photos.
