Program(s)+version: Photoshop CS3, GIMPInvolves: Text tools, layer stylesTranslatable: Yes, mostlySteps: This tutorial doesn't show how to get from point A to point B, so there aren't really steps...Difficulty: Beginning/Intermediate Text in Photoshop This is Photoshop's Character box.

Psdmag.org Text icon guide - Icons by Curtana Various people have asked how I go about making my text-only icons. This isn't really a tutorial for any specific icon, more of a general guide.

So, yes, pick good textures. 100x100textures, icon_textures, neondistrict, etc. and snag a large selection. shoqolad and this tutorial by discolore are great places to start if you want to go that route. All I'd really add to grrliz's comments on textures is that sometimes, if you have a texture that's too busy, you can still make it work by masking part of it: 2. Have a wide selection of fonts. Whenever you try a new font, make sure you check which Anti-Aliasing it looks best with - sharp, crisp, smooth, or strong. Pick a quote that's a manageable length. 3.

Fontaholic My Top 5 After Effects Expressions I realize that expressions can be daunting, and some would rather copy and past useful code rather than learn the language. That’s cool with me. Therefore, I’d like to share with you my top 5 after effects expressions. These are expressions I use in just about every project, and I consider them to be incredible workflow enhancements.

This expression is a bit of a community effort. Modify “amp” for the amplitude or how much bounce is present. amp = .1; freq = 2.0; decay = 2.0; n = 0; if (numKeys > 0){ n = nearestKey(time).index; if (key(n).time > time){ n--; }} if (n == 0){ t = 0; }else{ t = time - key(n).time; } if (n > 0){ v = velocityAtTime(key(n).time - thisComp.frameDuration/10); value + v*amp*Math.sin(freq*t*2*Math.PI)/Math.exp(decay*t); }else{value} Like the free content here? 2. 3. 4.

There are those who read them, there are those who write them, and then there are those who draw them. Lettering is the process of creating illustrations with letters, numbers, or any type of character or phrase. It’s far removed from the ordinary writing most of us do. The original aims of this technique consisted in maintaining legibility and uniformity. The creativity of graphic design has on occasion made it a work of art beyond simple inscription. The imitations we see applied in web design through CSS, unlike hand-written lettering, use full typographies to which we can apply new CSS3 capabilities such as multiple shadows, gradient backgrounds, and 3D effects to imitate the effects of lettering.
