What I mean by "Holy Grail" is that intense outer glow of crosses in religious illustrations but that looks natural in photographs. I am looking for technique, filter or third party plug in.
I have product photos to create this type of outer glow but I also want it to look natural.
I am looking for a fast, easy and adjustable way to do this -- if at all possible.

View 9 Replies View RelatedI'm trying to implement some effects in C++ for my user interface controls. I've figured out that Photoshop Layer Styles uses an anti-aliased form of the Euclidean Distance Transform for "Precise" techniques (Inner Glow and Outer Glow).
But what is the method used for the "Softer" technique for Outer Glow and Inner Glow? It seems this is also used for the "Smooth" technique when computing the height map for Bevel and Emboss.

I am in the process of creating a flier and I am running into a problem with my type. In my head line I am attempting to use an outter glow but when I do I get a choppy distortion on my letters. It isn't all that aparent when I look at it in photoshop but when I export it to a pdf you can tell and it is really obvious when I print it.

View 3 Replies View RelatedI'm trying to make a neat planet image for some hobby stuff I'm working on. I have an image (2048x1024) as a texture (from the program Fractal Terrains). I can render it into 3D using Shape3D (AWESOME plugin, btw).
Now I'm trying to add the inner and outer glow on the planet. I guess I'm not well enough versed in PDN to follow it exactly... my results aren't getting me where I want to be (yet, I know it works because others are praising the author).
Anyhow, here's the link to the original Glow tutorial. Here's an example of the type of effect I'm looking for -- the purplish halo around the planet.
I am using Illustrator CS5. I am trying to put an outer glow on text that I have done the 'create outlines' to. My settings are Normal color is white opacity is 90% and blur is 10mm. I hit OK and nothing shows up. If I change the color I use then I get the glow. The thing is I need the white glow. Can I not use white or am I missing something else?
View 6 Replies View RelatedI applied an outer glow to my objects in illustrator but it just won't display.
I've hit some kind of hotkey that turns raster effects off or something, but I dont even know where to start looking. I've used glows in the past and its always a bit wonky but now it just wont do anything.
I've been using spot colors, but have tried it without to no effect, and I run windows 8. I want to apply it to the compound shape hammer time, I thought maybe it was not working because of the compound shape so I tried getting rid of my inside shapes, but its not really changing.
I did just notice that there is a weird haze around the top hammer time on this image, but ONLY if you turn your head and look at the monitor from a strange angle can you really see it. So it might just be that I screwed up my glow settings here.
I'm trying to get the glow to be very strong for about half an inch and the fade out.
Since upgrading the AI CC (17.0.0), when applying an outer glow effect to objects, the effect sometimes expands its appearance involuntarily after saving and closing the file. The outcome is similar to selecting "expand appearance" from the Object menu.
When the saved file is reopened, the outer glow effect has become is its own object, grouped with the original shape. You can no longer adjust the effect in the Appearance panel.
I'm created a photo of an alien boy being beamed down to someone's house in a cone of bright white light from a flying saucer, and I tried to use the "layer style" to create the glowing light effect in this cone of bright light - but somehow I'm not getting the "glow" effect that I got before. I'm stumped as to what I'm doing wrong/not doing right to produce the glow effect. In other words, the outer/inner glow effect no longer works. Can anyone please help me?

View 5 Replies View Relatedi know this question is very general but are there any tips on creating outer and inner corner points for pattern brushes in Illustrator? The pattern brushes that are already installed with illustrator have very smooth corner points that blend well, even around quite sharp inner and outer corners. But when i create my own pattern brushes, i just dont seem to get it right.
View 2 Replies View RelatedHere I have a vector image. The pink stroke is a cut path that the software I use at work recognises and cuts. (Used for vinyl decals/stickers etc). All the lines highlighted in pink is useless to me, as it would cut out each individual line.
All I need is the outer edge of the entire graphic.
Note my crudely drawn red lines that border the image, that is exactly what I need. As you can see, the paths run through the image. BUT...When I try to erase the paths using add anchor point then cut path at selected anchor points so I can remove that particular segment, the colour essentially "leaks" as it isn't a closed area anymore. Rasterizing the image destroys the quality and I would like to be able to perform this task without loss of quality.
