How to make...
 

Hi, does anyone know some tutorials on how to make boxes?

Like this one...

http://www.spoono.com/tutorials/photoshop/boxart/

ther you go good sir. have to have PS or be able ton "translate" into other programs

perfect.

thx!

While spoono's tutorial is amazing and very cool, a lot of companies out there that feature "box art" of their products simply take pictures of them and then edit the pictures in photoshop. Just thought I would let you know :)

if you take photos you may get the background which doesnt match the rest of the page. so spoono is better methinks

Spoono still had to edit the images he scanned. Either way it is about the same process.

MNS

You can also create simple vector artwork and export it as an image... using illustrator, corel, etc. Especially from the image you showed, I don't see anything that can't be done in Illustrator -- or photoshop just as easily.

An interesting plugin for illustrator that many people in the packaging industry use is called FoldUp 3D:

Just another option for you to use if you'd like.
