It\u2019s our way of saying thank you for being part of our core community of users. Last month it was the watery, shimmery Mermaid overly pack,\u00a0which resulted in tons of #pixlr tagged images that we positively adored. This time around we have a cool overlay pack we\u2019re calling Gibson, and you\u2019ll find it in Pixlr Desktop (Mac\/PC) and in Pixlr for mobile. It\u2019s a pack of ten overlays that add moody textures and fractured geometric elements.<br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/blog.pixlr.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/06\/tumblr_inline_nmx2l9WZ0P1rmon24_500.png\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-449\" src=\"https:\/\/blog.pixlr.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/06\/tumblr_inline_nmx2l9WZ0P1rmon24_500.png\" alt=\"tumblr_inline_nmx2l9WZ0P1rmon24_500\" width=\"500\" height=\"84\" \/><\/a><br \/>\nThese overlays are bolder than most, and there are a few techniques we\u2019ve already discovered that we really like. First, we love the flying bird silhouette overlays. The no-duh obvious way to use these is to place them in a landscape photo so they add a dramatic (but also possibly realistic) effect:<br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/blog.pixlr.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/06\/tumblr_inline_nmx2gl25iE1rmon24_500.jpg\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-448\" src=\"https:\/\/blog.pixlr.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/06\/tumblr_inline_nmx2gl25iE1rmon24_500.jpg\" alt=\"tumblr_inline_nmx2gl25iE1rmon24_500\" width=\"500\" height=\"500\" \/><\/a><br \/>\nThere are even more interesting ways to use these. One of our favorite overlays in this pack, Apocalypse, is also a bird silhouette overlay, but what if you put this into a close-up portrait? It adds an air of interior intrigue.<br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/blog.pixlr.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/06\/tumblr_inline_nmxca1eqVl1rmon24_500.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-447\" src=\"https:\/\/blog.pixlr.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/06\/tumblr_inline_nmxca1eqVl1rmon24_500.jpg\" alt=\"tumblr_inline_nmxca1eqVl1rmon24_500\" width=\"500\" height=\"500\" \/><\/a><br \/>\nThere are some bold effects like a very cool one called Alpha that sports a wolf emblem. We used a few different layers at varied opacities to edit this image of three friends before finally adding the wolf emblem:<br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/blog.pixlr.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/06\/tumblr_inline_nmx91dbo1H1rmon24_500.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-446\" src=\"https:\/\/blog.pixlr.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/06\/tumblr_inline_nmx91dbo1H1rmon24_500.jpg\" alt=\"tumblr_inline_nmx91dbo1H1rmon24_500\" width=\"500\" height=\"334\" \/><\/a><br \/>\nOther options in this pack include fractured lines that are great for adding texture to backgrounds like the sky. In the previous image, we let the overlays cover the entire image, but for this one, we used the History Brush to paint out some of the effects so that the effects look like they sit behind the couple. The History Brush is very handy if you like to layer on a lot of effects in subtle ways like this:<br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/blog.pixlr.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/06\/tumblr_inline_nmx5p251Qm1rmon24_500.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-445\" src=\"https:\/\/blog.pixlr.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/06\/tumblr_inline_nmx5p251Qm1rmon24_500.jpg\" alt=\"tumblr_inline_nmx5p251Qm1rmon24_500\" width=\"500\" height=\"333\" \/><\/a><br \/>\n<strong>This week\u2019s challenge: #pixlrgibson<\/strong><br \/>\nWhenever we release a new content pack for our members \u2014 well you bet we want to see what people make with it.
