i am npdoll aka narcwaif ( my mogai blog ) and i do edits of all kinds ◜◡◝ my requests are open!
requests are extremely slow so i'd like to ask for a promo! please feel free to ask to be removed ᵔᴗᵔ
@moechu @essthereal @huesick @sancryi @tunasandwichs @blushb-nny + any reblogs are appreciated
In this issue, we'd like to shine the light on a new editor who's quickly gained a large following of almost 100 followers as of writing
@huesick is, as stated, a newer editor who posts edits mostly related to hoyoverse games and their characters.
Specifically, we'd like to promote their layouts!
As shown above, huesick's layouts feature vibrant colour palettes and beautifully high quality icons.
We recommend that you take a look at their blog to support them!
Why credits are so important and how to properly give them
When editing media with fewer resources, it's common for editors to use fanart of characters. Alternatively, it's also normal for editors to use PSDs made by others. When doing these, it's important to credit the creator.
Credits are especially important because of the attention they bring to creators, especially for smaller ones. This is why crediting is a generally polite thing to do.
So, how do you properly give credit? Creators usually have their own ways they'd like to be credited, but generally editblr users request to be tagged directly, or simply have their name credited in the post or tags.
For fanartists, it's good to provide a user and platform, such as "____ on Twitter".
Editing Tip
Convert to Smart Object is a helpful process in photopea, similar to a folder. However, unlike folders, smart objects take up less space and lag less.
These smart objects act as a singular layer which you can later open in a new project!
It's especially good for editors who are wary about lag whilst they're editing!
News
At this time, the evil edit devourer of last issue is still at large! We recommend all editors keep themselves (and their edits) safe in these times!
If you have any leads on who this could be, please tell us so that we can find them and put a stop to their actions.

hello! Is it alright if you would show me a tutorial on how to recolor gifs and put them on a graphics? Thank you!
I. Recolouring GIFs
I use photopea to recolour and edit gifs. To recolour, I use two methods — gradient map and psds.
Method 1: Gradient Maps
This method is simple as its name. You import a gif, create a gradient map, and export. You can find gradient maps if you click the button that looks like a first quarter moon (🌓) on the bottom right corner.
Method 2: PSDs
This method requires you to use a Photoshop document (PSD), one that consists of settings you'll need to colour or adjust images and GIFs. There are several PSDs online and on Tumblr which you could use, but I'm personally demonstrating an example using what I made.
First, you load your gif. Then, you open your PSD in another document. After that, you duplicate the folder containing the settings into the other document.
Once you do, adjust the layers and make sure the folder is above your GIF. You should be able to export your GIF afterwards.
II. Adding GIFs into graphics.
Adding GIFs into graphics is pretty simple. I'll teach how to add transparent GIFS and how to add GIFs into masks.
Transparent GIFs
First, you load your picture. Then you open your transparent GIF in another document. After that, you duplicate it into the picture's document. Adjust to your liking and then export.
GIFs in Masks
To add GIFs into masks, first, you open the image you want to use as a mask. Then, you either select the pixels of the area you want to be a mask with the magic wand, or right-click (long press on mobile) to select the pixels of the layer.
Once selected, make a folder and then add a mask to the folder.
Open the GIF you want on another document and then duplicate it into the file just like in the previous text. Once you do, put the GIF's folder into the folder with the mask. Move and adjust the GIF as needed, and then export it once you're satisfied.
Unfortunately I've run out of images I can put here but I will reblog the finished product. I hope this tutorial helped! If you're still confused on some aspects or there's some things in the tutorial that you don't understand, don't be afraid to reach out for clarification.

hi (eyestrain incoming for the purpose of teaching)
this is the screen blending option, set to 100 opacity for the colors #ff00f0, #c900bd, #7e0076, left to right.
screen can only brighten an image because it is reactant towards the darker parts of it, as you can see the with the above examples.
now let's redo this example by using an overlay instead on screen, but at 75% this time.
she has been whitewashed, some of the overlays actually visually distort her face structure. when you select screen as the blending option for your overlay, the bright parts of the overlay will lighten the image. the dark parts won't have any major effect on it.
now imagine this, but with more overlays, on higher opacity, and another bright PSD being applied to it on top of that. your image is now entirely distorted, painful to look at, and eyestrain-y. don't be that guy. monitor your screen usage (im so funny).
