Out of Bounds (OOB) is an interesting photo effect where the object

or scene in the image seems to jump right out of the photo or its

borders. It is a photo manipulation technique to add an illusion of

3-dimsnsionality to a flat photo. Getting an interesting OOB effect

depends largely on the photo angle and the overall execution of the

concept. It is lots of fun to create an OOB effect. You can use any

photo editing software such as Photoshop or Gimp. With some imagination,

creativity and basic photo editing knowledge you can create an amazing

OOB image that captivates the viewer’s attention. This article showcases

50 most spectacular examples of Out of Bounds photo effects. We have

also featured some excellent tutorials if you are interested in learning

how to create this effect in Photoshop. So lets venture into this

mesmerizing world where you will find creatures, people, and vehicles

jumping right out of the screen.

Simply I liked! Why? Because it’s simple…this is the idea of minimalism design.

This concept of creating a web page tends to emphasize the idea that “less is

sometimes more”. Nowadays all the websites are using big headers, enormous

footers all full of colors and amazing pictures; much more an important page

should have at least a Flash application.

It is a good point; the color is a

key factor in marketing so it is easy to understand the role of it. In my opinion this kind of design shadows the written

content. After all we are searching for some information which in most cases is

written (pictures, layout, colors are for attracting people, not to give you

good pieces of information). As a reaction to this richness of colors and

pictures, minimalism design offers a radical solution: a great and impressive

background, a simple or almost nonexistent menu, one or two pictures and a nice

content. A few years ago I thought about these websites that they are for

dummies and are created by lazy designers. But it is not true! To create such a

webpage one needs a lot of experience, many days (why not nights) of work and a

very good sense of proportion.
