your blending is way to blurry/obvious and stands out like "hey this is where i tried to blend"

adjustments --> gradient --> choose/layer properties
filter --> other --> highpass softlight
work on a smaller canvas
the effects are really LQ

do you have too apply the high pass filter too each layer ? or is it a way too apply too the whole image without combining the layers? thats the part i cannot remmeber

ty for the gradient steps i needed that one, have been doing the straight gradient tool + orange --> purple then black too white
changing too soft light at 32% opacity

and how doo you up the quality on effects i think that part iv always been lacking
can never get good high quality sigs under kb size for jsp '

these had no specific settings and still LQ

that was me trying too fix the smudge tool on AP7 too where it would do splatter effect, and then going too the filter --> brush strokes --> splatter and applying the settings with too small size and keeping it... one of the mistakes i noticed after saving, overlooked in the process

if you are smudging, sharpen each layer
ctrl+shift+n
image --> apply image
high pass that layer
just dont use lq stocks and blur

You are one of very few people looking for real Cnc, but holy shit is annoying to read a page of centered text.

Hang around, we need less idiots.
