Matt-Liell Posted June 22, 2003 Share Posted June 22, 2003 Well I used to make my graphics with Paint Shop Pro but recently my older brother gave me his disk of Photoshop. My graphics were good before but I know all you amazing artists use Photoshop and I'm hoping it will improve my skills. Most things are pretty straight forward and I can figure them out and I have some nice graphics but one thing bugs me: TEXT How do you make text outlined with another colour or glow as I have seen some people do with PS or ImageReady? The rest I can probably figure out but if you guys (Darky and CoupeS impuricular:p) have any hints/tips/suggestions for me they would be most welcome.

HertogJan Posted June 22, 2003 Share Posted June 22, 2003 Photoshop is better... waaaay better than PSP You can do so many things with the blending options, you'll hardly use the filters!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HertogJan Posted June 22, 2003 Share Posted June 22, 2003 Oh and do a search on "Photoshop tutotials"... While most tutorials let you create pretty random effects, it helps you understand the program better, especially if you like creating abstract art those tutorials can be really helpful Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
