Description
I spent 7 hours late last night (and this morning, technically) making this, so I hope it helps SOMEBODY.
Enjoy.

I think at the end you should have at least showed what it looked like in the original size.
I agree with an above person as well. 
Like showing a video of you making it... 
Great job, though. You did great by showing all the steps.

Why don't you just use Imageready? (Doesn't it come with CS? Even the trial version?) It's the same basic steps with little details changed.

Very nicely made. I'll read over the text later (since I already know how that happens) and see if there's anything you need to be more clear on or anything. I a lot of the stuff you do I don't, for example, you set the canvas size immediatly. I always set mine to 50x50, then trim or fit the canvas after the finished product. You should really upload this to Emoti-CON.

Same with me on the canvas size, for I never know how large of an emote my idea will mutate to.

Exactly the same with my tutorial. I didn't want to bore everyone with shading each part of the emote step by step, so I put the gradient on

I went the extra boring mile, in that case.

I have an emote saved in .psd, and I just open it and start a new project with it.

yeah, I chose .psd 'cause it saves layers

Oh shnap, it's cool. But, I use Photoshop and Image ready, so I can't use it.

You can. Just modify the steps a bit. I just did it in Photoshop and it looked fine.

Oh, well, I know how to do it anyway, but i'll try it.

Nope, I'm experienced enough to do all this in... 4 steps.
But thanks.
