Polraudio 122 Report post Posted January 1, 2010 I was bored and was messing with photoshop. Well it led me to making many different ways to do text. Let me know what you think. I like the 3rd one. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Noob Saibot 38 Report post Posted January 1, 2010 Funny. I was messing around with it one day and did a nice text affect, but I have not been able to replicate it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Chief 30 Report post Posted January 1, 2010 Hebi, if you post the text here, I could take a look and possibly replicate it and show you steps. Pol, I like the second one, its very cool. I normally dont put a stroke on something with Alpha on the outside, as it tends to look messy, but yours turned out quite nicely. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Tomo2000 60 Report post Posted January 1, 2010 I like them, especially the 2nd and 3rd one. You could make some pretty cool title screens with those text effects. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Well I don't have the image, but it kind of looked like Pols first text, but with color to it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kaylen 1 Report post Posted January 1, 2010 A while back I also dabbled in making text in gimp; the third one of yours is my favorite. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Polraudio 122 Report post Posted January 2, 2010 should I make a few tuts for some simple text styles? Sure. It would be nice to learn a little more and see how you do things. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Noob Saibot 38 Report post Posted January 2, 2010 should I make a few tuts for some simple text styles? Sounds good. The only thing I know of is clicking the text layer to bring up a window that allows you to add drop shadow, texture, etc. Amaze me Chief. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
