Water

1. First off create a new workspace, it doesn’t matter if it has a transparent or colored background, but be sure to set your foreground color to black (#000000) and your background color to white (#FFFFFF), the quick key for this is 'D'. Size is not of any importance either, I decided on a 300x300 pixel image.

2. Go to Filter > Render > Clouds

You should now have something alike this:


3. Now go to Filter > Sketch > Chrome. You can leave the defaults in tact here.

Now this should be quite alike your image:


4. In this step it will be taking some serious waterish shape. Go to Filter > Distort > Ripple and set the amount to 999%.

This should look quite like yours:


5. Now go to Image > Adjustments > Hue/Saturation. Thick the colorize box. Move a bit around with the Hue, Saturation and Lightness amounts.

These are the settings I used here:


Now you’re done!

Your final image should look quite alike this:

Is this how you got the water on your website?

Anyway, very nice water! Beats the most water tuts out there that I have seen!

Thanks guys!

Yes Mesko, that's the way I did the water on the template I am building. The template is now finished by the way, but I cant be bothered to upload the newest screenshot. I'll just blast over my bandwidth again.
