Almaida Posted August 3, 2006 Share Posted August 3, 2006 I've been waiting for WWE.com to put these guys up since they debuted, and hey, they finally did. [img]http://i29.photobucket.com/albums/c299/Almaida/SylvesterTerkay2B.jpg[/img] [img]http://i29.photobucket.com/albums/c299/Almaida/SylvesterTerkay.jpg[/img] [img]http://i29.photobucket.com/albums/c299/Almaida/ElijahBurke2.jpg[/img] [img]http://i29.photobucket.com/albums/c299/Almaida/ElijahBurke2B.jpg[/img] The first Elijah is the size of the original picture, while I slightly enlarged it for the second, which worsens the quality but makes it fit in better with the scale of my other pics. So I figured I'd just put both up. Enjoy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rune Posted August 4, 2006 Share Posted August 4, 2006 Thanks for these, I really needed the Elijah one. Also, has anyone noticed that after years of playing TEW/EWR and you see all these guys before they're on the roster, and when they finally debut (the young guys that spend years in OVW/DSW) they look totally different? I mean, usually we only have really bad quality, dodgey pictures of the people in OVW, then they get called up to SD!/RAW and they look completely different and better. I don't know if it's just the pictures being that bad, or if they all get make overs before their big "call up". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Almaida Posted August 4, 2006 Author Share Posted August 4, 2006 Thanks, guys. Feedback is appreciated. I think it's a little from column A and a little from column B, which is why I'm always on the lookout for newer pics. I'd say what it comes down too, though, is that WWE relies heavily on look and what they deem to be star quality, so the guys who get called up [i]do[/i] get something of a makeover shortly before it happens, so that they won't look like some schlub on TV.

berrysi Posted August 4, 2006 Share Posted August 4, 2006 Cheers for pics, I've got another couple of Burke pics (I didn't cut them, so credit elsewhere) that are pretty good imo (heel or face look maybe?, I like first one) if anyone wants them: [IMG]http://img268.imageshack.us/img268/4899/elijahburke4qj3.jpg[/IMG] [IMG]http://img360.imageshack.us/img360/6725/elijahburke5up1.jpg[/IMG] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

berrysi Posted August 5, 2006 Share Posted August 5, 2006 Just wondering but can anyone tell me how to add a proper border to pics, rather than the wrestler going over it? Its just I'd like to sort a few of my collection out to look all nice and stuff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bobinc Posted August 5, 2006 Share Posted August 5, 2006 You could add a border layer over your pick with the line or just draw it with a line tool. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jehovah Posted August 6, 2006 Share Posted August 6, 2006 In Photoshop, you can cut the picture as 148 X 148 and increase the Canvas Size to add 2 pixels each way of black. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

darthsiddus2 Posted August 6, 2006 Share Posted August 6, 2006 that one match didn't really impress me much although I can say he looks pretty impressive. he's gotta go against some vets before I can say he's good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Almaida Posted August 7, 2006 Author Share Posted August 7, 2006 Yeah, I've been gone for a few days. [QUOTE=berrysi]Just wondering but can anyone tell me how to add a proper border to pics, rather than the wrestler going over it? Its just I'd like to sort a few of my collection out to look all nice and stuff.[/QUOTE] The easiest way is this. 1) Create a new layer on top of all the others. 2) Select All (Ctrl + A). 3) Go to Edit at the top of the screen, click on Stroke 4) Make it 1 px and black, click OK. It's a guaranteed perfect border every time, and once you get used to it, you can do it in under five seconds before you finish up. And yeah, I'm already a big fan of Elijah Burke based only on his Smackdown appearances. The guy is just loaded with charisma and if he's as good a promo as I've been led to believe, he'll be a star someday. Plus he seems to be pretty athletic, which is always a plus. I just really like the dynamic between he and Terkay. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
