Wedding Envelopes

'Money Envelope' are mainly presented at social and family gathering such as wedding, birthday etc, the envelopes shown above are variation among wedding envelope given out at Malay wedding ceremony. I have designed various custom-made wedding envelopes with the motif of mosque and floral dominated the decoration. A wedding greeting quote that say "SELAMAT PENGANTIN BARU' is a favourite statement normally printed on the envelope. It is used for saluting people who have just married. The above are among designs that I created for my personal use.

This is not a tutorial on how you go about creating your personal postage stamp, but I can assure you that there are a plethora of photoshop tutorials on the Internet including tutorials for creating postage stamp. One such web site, for example is depiction.net. What are the kernel skill that you need to learn in order to have a good grasp of Adobe Photoshop? There are three essential photoshop knowledge need to be studied if you want to prove you are a Photoshop maven. Firstly, you know how make basic selection, secondly you understand how to use layers in Photoshop (this is absolutely essential ) then thirdly, have a grasp of how layer masks works. Where to learn all these skills? Practice, practice and practice seriously that is the best way because experimentation and play is the key to learning something beyond the basic . A couple of things you can do is use tutorial, there is a wealth of great Photoshop tutorials on the Web, join Adobe photoshop forum, read Photoshop magazines like Photoshop User Magazine from NAPP and read Photoshop books. There are some photoshop books that are really top drawer. Among them, I highly recommend Photoshop Wow book though it was written for Photoshop CS and CS2 but it can still big investment to photoshop users

Contoh Bendera Khatam

This is a kind of a small flag for the purpose of decorating the 'bunga telur' ( fully boiled chicken egge wrapped decoratively). Bunga telur is a gift to guests who come to the Khatam Al-Quran ceremony (a ceremony signifying your completion of reading the Holy Quran) or gift for guests in a Malay wedding ceremony. Notice untuk pengunjung yang berminat sahaja iatah pasalnya ku berkurapak bahasa Brunei ani. Kalau abiskita minat menggunakan tulisan 'Majlis Khatam Al-Quran' berbentuk tulisan Thulus seperti yang arah bendera khatam diatas ah...bulih eh..download saja. Fail untuk tulisan atu ku sediakan menggunakan format 'ai' Apa 'ai' atu kan? hehehe okey, 'ai' atu ialah fail grafik yang dibuat menggunakan program Adobe Illustrator. Jadinya, format 'ai' harus dibuka dengan program Illustrator lah tu sahabat, meaning kita terpaksa tah tedapat program Illustrator. Kenapa inda dalam Microsoft Word? Bukan kan menyusahkan biskita. Yang banarnya..kalau formatnya ku sediakan dalam Adobe Illustrator, sanang jua abiskita mengedit, mewarna, membasarkan saiz imej, walau tia sebasar papan hitam, (jangan marah puasa masih ni,) masih berkualiti tinggi tu ..iatah kan kelebihannya 'ai' ah. This is not a technical talk ah..in plain bahasa Brunei sudah ku ni. All right, If you wish to download the wording, simply visit my other blog here :)

Brunei To Celebrate Hari Raya On Monday

At the time of writing, I read online Yahoo News that muslims in Malaysia will celebrate Hari Raya Aidil Fitri tomorrow, Sept 20, while Brunei Darussalam begins the celebration marking the end of Ramadhan on Monday Sept 21. Syarie Judges and officials of Syariah Court, officials from the State Judiciary Department, Ministry of Religious Affairs and the Survey Department, Ministry of Development made attempts to sight the new crescent moon but in vain. In 1960s, in my childhood day I can remember that every house would have the kek 'Kepala Meja' and these cakes had a very thick icing with the word 'Selamat Hari Raya' decorated on it. Oddly these cakes were not consumed but function solely as decoration on the table throughout the Hari Raya celebration. Another fascinating practice taken on by some folks was covering the foodstuffs on the table. Four bottles would be placed on the table forming a square and a piece of linen wold be placed on top of the bottles that will cover the food on the table. But regardless of the contrasting between life in the past and today, The most important thing is 'What we have gained from fasting in the month ofRamadhan?" We leave the bless month of Ramadhan, the month of the Quran, taqwa, mercy, patience and forgetfulness. Have we graduated from the school of Ramadhaan with more appreciation of god-fearing? If we are from those who made the most from Ramadhan? then praise and thank Allah and ask him for steadfastness upon it until we meet our death. From sign that one's deeds are accepted is that he or she has improved in his or her obedience to Allah. Allah Subhanahu Wata 'alaa said "And remember when your God proclaimed 'If you are grateful I will increase you (In favor). Meaning, increase us with good, faith and righteous actions.

KING OF MARBLES GAME 2009

This is non-existent trophy, it is only my imaginary prize that is given to the winner of a game of marbles. I created the imitation medal yesterday when bit by bit from the deepest part of my memory I remembered things I did when I was a kiddie. As a kid I used to play a lot of games with my friends. Let me remind you that I was the children of sixties thus among old-time children games existed that keep me busy and moving were guli ( game of marbles), Tarik Upih and Kite Flying. These are male game of course. Now, going back to the subject of playing marble. Game of marble is a youngster's game for two or more. Your main tool is a set of marbles, a small round ball usually transparent and colorful. One set of the marble is place at the center which is in the form of square or circle, normally a stick is used to draw the square or circle on the dirt. The number of marble you put at the center may differ from 2 to even more, relying on the agreement of the team. Each player has his/her own shooter marble to hit the set. The first player starts the game by shooting at the set and keep on shooting until he/she goes wide of hitting any of the marbles from the set. Then in rotation each player takes turn to hit it. Gather any marbles that you have knocked out from the ring. Continue shooting until the set in the circle or square is vacant. Count your marbles at the end of the game. You are the winner if you have the most marbles. :)

Puzzle Effect In Photoshop

This is not a tutorial on creating a puzzle effect in Photoshop. My intent just to show you the Photoshop puzzle effect I created with photoshop. Here is the image I used for the puzzle, the Arabic phrase 'Ar Rahman Ar Rahim' which translates 'The Beneficient and The Mercifull' respectively. The pattern for the puzzle was created in Adobe Illustrator as shown in the diagram below. For your information I didn't use the Puzzle.psd file that comes with the original program. When the drawing process was all over and done in Adobe Illstrator, to make a long story short, I proceeded with Adobe Photoshop to continue the puzzle creation.

My Vector Art

Today vector art is really popular. Creating vector art is not hard to do, if you have Adobe Illustrator or CorelDraw you can start creating your vector art and you don't need to be able to draw or to be a professional artist to create your own vector art. I often use Adobe Illustrator to make the initial file and then create a raster version for an optimized web ready file. Another cool thing about vector graphic is that their file size is usually smaller, the bitmap files, by contrast, have to store information by each fixel. Vector graphics only have to store information about the point. As people begin working with computer graphics one of the subject of greatest confussion is the different between bitmap graphics and vector graphics. But this is not a big deal for you to understand the difference between the two graphics format because there is a lot of information on the Internet defining both, then explain them as they relates to each other. One such a cool website is PHOTOSHOPSUPPORT.COM.
