nah. not really...
here's the idea; make a new canvas with grey color because grey always does the best acting as base. and then you place the picture of...let say for example yuto, then change the yuto pic to color burn. then you can play around with the color balance and brightness/contrast. sometimes it's also good to duplicate the yuto pic layer and use another mode, maybe soft light,etc.. just try experimenting around.

sorry for acting like a pro.. ;A;

Ahh, I see... I always use white for the base so this is extra for me :) thanks for the tutorial XDD I will try experimenting more after this.

LOL, no a problem at all :D

as I expected you use white as base. because if you use white you can't really any mode since the pic will disappear behind the white base. haha.

Hahaha, maybe because i always see people used white base so yeah XD thanks for the tips. I just made one and yeah, it looks better :) /hugs rei ♥

^^ glad to be able to help =)
another tips is to use icon texture just find them on graphic sites or deviantart, overlay the texture on the icon, change the mode and voila~ haha..

:D
Ahh, awesome. That will be a big help :)
I will do that
