How to create a cool rainbow nebula text effect that you can play with. This is a fairly easy effect to achieve.
The result will look something like this:
1. Create a New project and set your dimensions. In this case, I am going to use 500 x 200. This part is up to you.
2. I think this effect goes best with a dark color(black) so use the fill tool to turn your background black(or your color pick if it is different).
3. Next, add your text using the text tool. I believe the font Century Gothic goes well with this. However, I am going to use my logo with this. Make sure whatever you do, if you use your logo or not, that your subject is white.
4. Right-click on the text/logo layer in the layer panel and select Alpha to Selection. Then create a New Layer and go the Filters→Render→Clouds→Plasma and click OK. Put this layer on the below the text one if it is not already.
5. Now Gaussian Blur the text layer by 5 pixels and set the Layer Mode to Overlay.
6. (This step is optional. I am going to do it though because it gives a good result in my opinion.) Duplicate the Plasma Layer and Gaussian Blur it by 5 pixels. Then you can play around with the opacity with the Layer Mode on Screen, I set mine to 50%. Then duplicate the text layer and lower the opacity which I did to 50%. This gives the text more shine.
I'm working on making a really awesome pic but I'm stuck. The style I use in all of my pics is by making a new layer, changing it to color mode, then making rainbow colors with a really soft brush. Everything was going fine until I threw some text in there. Now when I paint, the text stays the same color!
I am looking to create text words that have a silver/bright mirror effect. The effect might look like silver liquid (water) effect. Or do you know what software it could be designed on.
exported transparent png fiiles get this rainbow of color distorted bleed when previewing or importing into programs that cannot read the png's transparency!!! even program that can read the png's transparency after you check a 'make transparent' checkbox (such as Memorex Expressit label design studio) have this distorted color bleed!! like in the label program checking 'make transparent' leaves the rainbow color distortion in!!!
this seems to be ONLY happening with Gimp exported PNGs!!! other PNGs and other programs that can generate transparent PNGs don't have this issue!
I'm having issues with threaded text. I've created my desired paths for threaded text, essentially a rainbow, that aligns with my package design. When I create threaded text it behaves wierdly. The following occurs:
1) creating threaded text with my rainbow paths, it creates the paths upside down. I've figured out how to rememdy this with the path options, but wish it didn't default to upside down.
2) My path layers for each row are in decending order, i.e. - would like text to cascade top to bottom; however, when I start typing, it uses the bottom line first causing my paragraph to read from bottom to top. This is incredibly frustrating!
I've been interested in using GIMP to create a multicolor streamer effect similar to that on the American cover of Manifold: Space (image here). The problem is that I'm not sure what tools, settings and/or effects to use to make such an effect.
I would like to know the quickest way to create face in hole type photo templates. I was at Universal studios and was impressed by the speed they could create face on body images. I am thinking it has to do with lasso select tool with a feather on edges > invert selection.
Also what is the quickest way to make the photo face match the original face color. (is there some kind of color select to do this?)
I have the latest Macbook Air 13" (intel i5 1.8 mhz with 4gb DDR3). I downloaded a trail version of PS CS6 from the creative cloud. It worked fine but suddenly it began act wierd. Every 10 seconds the software stucks for 3 seconds (Rainbow wheel). My computer is brand new and nothing else is installed. I upadted the latest PS patch and download the latest OSX updates but it is still happening.
Update: This is happening mostly when I'm using the text editing tool... (I'm using hebrew fonts as well),
Is there a way to use this program to create a double exposure effect? Ican do it with my 35mm camera manually while taking pics. But was not sureif you can create the same digitally?
Basically I have 2 images, 1 is a texture background and the other is a face. I wanna create the effect that the face is blended into the photo just like in this one:
I have attached a logo I want to create. The text is running through this silhouette I have made and when it runs through the silhouette I want to change the text from black to white in only the places it is on top of the silhouette so it can be read.
I want to create the text "RoMa" like a fireworks (see below image - text should replace the stars and should look like firework). Please tell me how to do it. Would be great if you could post a tutorial or a link to it or would be even better if you could send me an action for it.
I want the text on my layer to react in negative to the layers underneath. I set the layer to "Divide" but it doesn't affect the entire word. Check out the attachment to see what I mean. The text, "Desirae" is on the layer "lettering" and is set to Divide.
All I want to accomplish is for the word to be readable against the black and white.
Im using the blend effect with text in 2.8, but after editing and seeing the actual playback it appears too fast. My question is there anyway to slow this effect down?
I would like to create a gloss varnish effect like the below image. To apply to a logo or text to make it look like it has a spot varnish gloss coat. Looking at the image, it looks like it would be quite simple and not too technical but I can't seem to replicate the effect.
How to create the effect of an object (in this case a crown) hanging on the edge of a letter (on the end of a word). I am designing a logo for our kids ministry at church. It is called "Kids of the King" and I have an eps of a crown and I want to hang the crown off the K in the word King. I am trying to make it where the back half of the crown is hidden behind the K so it gives the effect of it hanging off the edge of the letter.
