so i posted a picspam tutorial here because my 2012-2014 tumblr nostalgia is off the charts there days (come on lets be real, edits back then were AMAZING)
anyway i decided to make a list of editing prompts for picspams so that if you have any editing block, you can refer to this! the best thing about picspams is that they’re so versatile so here ya go:
coloring picspam: the most common, basically pick a single color or multiple colors for example:
multiple colors: [1] [2] [3] [4] [5]
single color: [1] [2]
rainbow: [1] [2] [3] [4] [5]
palette: [1] [2] [3]
pastels: [1] [2] [3] [4] [5]
silhouette picspam: where you take a screen cap of a silhouette and make it beautiful (the easiest one tbh)
[1] [2] [3]
dark vs. light: where you take dark screencaps and light screencaps and create a masterpiece from that
[1] [2] [3]
only light: [1] [2]
scenery: lots of fandoms like harry potter, LOTR, game of thrones, etc. feature some beautiful scenery so you can incorporate that into a picspam
[1] [2] [3]
masking: where you mask objects / items / people etc. from the screencaps
[1] [2] [3]
cropping: there are so many ways to crop your screencaps whether its 270x140 or 540x200 the possibilities are endless!
[1] [2] [3] [4] [5]
space: where the screencap naturally (without masking or anything) has a lot of empty space
[1] [2] [3]
body language: this refers to the screencap itself and what body language it’s showcasing
bruised and battered: [1] [2]
faceless: [1] [2]
up close & personal: [1] [2]
