With fire!

But seriously, I used a mix of saturation, brightness, and erasing.

I spruced up mine with some holly, or rather I tried too but its to small and you cant see it.

You could put some under the wings. Or something.

Yea but I was trying to make it look like it was wearing a holly bow tie

He just duplicated the holly changed its colour (adjustments) and then made some holes on it.
I'm more interested on how he did the fire. Oh and how did you made the steam on the hollypenõ one Fanboy?

Yeah... your description made more sense, seeing as how I have never even opened Photoshop...

For the fire, I just smudged a bunch of shades of yellow and orange together then gave it a dark overlay. Then I made a sperate layer where it was 50% opacity in the blending options to give it that flicker.

The steam was quite similar; Just some white paintbrush with opacity turned down.

Dibs on the fire fox one! I need to try out CS3

..P-please? :x

All yours, man!

I'm gonna fix myself some supper, but I'll be back later.

I understand this is the place to go to if I want some christmas cheer on my avatar?

Kindly make my monkey Santa flavoured, if you will.

Wow, and I didn't even message you! Some other folks must be doing their jobs! And note that it is't Santa flavor, it's Holly flavor.

Stop posting... he must not get to 1000!

 

[Fanboy]

Ok, I'll stop posting.

 

[xitel]

Don't stop posting, kitten's just jealous that his game's thread stopped picking up posts because he stopped posting updates to it.

 

[Piemaster]

We will never stop until every avatar on the Escapist contains holly!

Well, we can't force people to have holly. Just strongly encourage it. And I won't feel complete until Archon hollys up his avatar.

That, then. I just want my monkey to be festive, he's such a little grinch.

Actualy, it would be awesome if someone turned him green, wouldn't it?

A holly panda would be almost as adorable as the holly firefox. How's that coming along anyways, Richard?

 

[Mr.Pandah]

oooo A Holly firefox? =D

 

[xitel]

oooo A Holly firefox? =D

I think it's on the page before this one. Someone using firefox asked for holly, and Richard volunteered.

Can you put a holly wreath around the owl's neck?
