| Open a new image with a white background and apply your text. Deselect
it. |
 |
 |
Choose Image/Blur/Motion Blur settings at Angel=45 degrees,
Intensity=20 or more or less; Experiment! |
| Make sure you have the palette on white background and choose Edit/Cut.
Then go back and paste your image as a transparent image. Do NOT deselect it. |
| Choose Image/Other/Hotwax Coating. Make sure your foreground is white
and background is a dark color. |
 |
 |
Apply the motion blur again with the same settings. |
| Now Selections/Modify/Expand settings=1 pixel, then Image/Blur/Soften.
Apply your text again with the same settings. Try to line the edges up, so that you have a
3D block effect. Do not deselect the text. |
 |
 |
Next choose Selections/Modify/Contract settings=3 pixels. Now choose
Image/Effects/Cutout, the settings are Shadow=Black, Blur=10, Offsets~=4 or 5. |
| Experiment with DingBats too. |
