This method can be used in conjunction with lighting effects for slippery smooth
results.
Tip: If you have My Actions loaded, this blurring process can be done
quickly and easily by pressing: F8 (blur 9px), F7 (blur 6px), F6 (blur
3px), F5 (blur 1px)
c) Once you deem your blurration fit for submission, press Ctrl+A to select the
entire channel, then copy it to the clipboard Ctrl+C.
d) Create a new image ( Ctrl+N), of the same size ( 800x800), and paste ( Ctrl+V)
the blurred channel into it. Now, save this image as a glass_bump.psd into the
same folder you are working from. You may now close it if you wish.
b)Once the image is in Photoshop, Select All ( Ctrl+A), copy it to the clipboard
(Ctrl+C), then go to the original image glass.psd and paste it ( Ctrl+V) onto a new
layer.

This will be the image which the glass refracts. Let it be known as the ' Photo' layer.

This will be the image which the glass refracts. Let it be known as the ' Photo' layer.
If you use your own photo instead of this one, such as pictures of
water which look cool and refreshing, make sure that it is exactly the
same size as the glass.psd, or else make sure that the edges of the
Tip: Photo layer go beyond he edges of the image. Also, make sure you
select the whole image (not layer) ( Ctrl+A) before running the Glass
filter, or else there will problems with the placement of the glass
refraction. You will see.
Distortion: 20
Smoothness: 8
When this is done, perhaps even change the blending mode to Color Dodge, or
Screen... whatever appears the most groovy to your pulsating eyeballs.
In addition to the Photo layer, try refracting a layer of black and white scan lines to
produce highly detailed moire patterns. This tutorial can also be used to create
chrome looking items. Throw down drop shadows, stone textures , disgruntled dots,
and hopefully better effects you've come up with by now.
Massage the pixels thoroughly, until they stimulate your eyeballs in return, and be
sure to experiment until the persistantly unfolding depths of your mind push you to
the brink of madness.
