3D Wire Textpage oneI've been playing with this thing for days now, and I can't make up my mind if it has any use. If I put it in a tutorial, maybe I can stop wasting so much time doodling with it. The wire mesh thingy is done with a custom brush that I made. |

To make the brush,
start with a new white document. Magnify it to the maximum with either the
zoom tool, or the Navigator
palette slider. Using the rectangular marquee
tool, drag a one pixel square selection. Watch the Info
palette to make sure you have only one pixel selected.
With the selection active, choose Edit > Fill, and choose Black, or Foreground Color from the menu (if black is your foreground color). Make sure the Opacity is set to 100 %. Next, with the marquee tool still selected in the toolbox (you want to move the selection outline, not its contents) press the right arrow key three times. You want two white pixels between each colored pixel. With the selection outline moved to the right three pixels, again choose Edit > Fill and choose black. This time set the Opacity to 80 %. Press the right arrow key three times again. Fill the square with black with an Opacity of 60 %. And so on around the square. The sequence of opacities is shown below. |
