You're welcome. You probably want to save it on your hard drive and maybe even host it yourself. That way if I delete it from my Photobucket, you won't lose the image.

I believe that is from your favorite team question. I'm not sure if WSU is an option. You would have to ask the admins.

I had no idea about who these people were and even the definition of Swagga. Not much a television viewer. This a screen capture of a clip Google found. Hope it is what you anticipated:

I just started messing around w/ photoshop and got some pointers from another poster on Saints Talk. However, I saw the sig you did for Them and was wondering how you got the outline of the font.

Is it a font specific thing or can you do that w/ any font on photoshop? If so, how? I know about the outer glows and drop shadows, but that is limited. Also, can you change the color of the outer glows and stuff in the blending options of the layer?

The font for "Them" was specificallay requested from Dafont:
engravier initials

It already has those black perspective-type lines.

After I had the text I wanted, I copied the layer and painted the text black (the layer is now below the original text). Then I applied a gaussian blur. I made several copies of this layer. That way the original text has a slight outline to it without detracting from the the rest of the image.

I use a program called Paint.net. Photoshop is MUCH more powerful and anything you see that I can do, I guarantee you can do it better in PS.

Fonts aren't specific to Photoshop. Go to DaFont.com and find some you like. Download the TFF files and put them in your FONT directory under WINDOWS on your hardrive (assuming you have a PC).

There are some really cool text effects you can create with PS. Google Text effects Photoshop and you will find a ton of really helpful tutorials.

If you have any specific questions, I would be glad to point you in the correct direction. However, I am not knowledgeable with Photoshop's commands and dialog boxes.

I'm sorry, I was thinking of the one I did for JP90.

For "Them" that is basic font. Then I used a command called "outline." I am sure Photoshop can do it, I just don't know exactly how.

Its not coming from photobucket. You need to copy the photobucket link and put it in the address bar for your avatar.

my post on page 138 of this thread. I think the the 5th post. It's time to revisit that and see if someone can make it happen.


thanks

How do I upload a sig picture in a small enough size? I took one of the fireworks over Tiger Stadium for the Bayou Country Superfest, and when I upload it to Imageshack at the smallest size, it is still 55kb. What can I do?

Thanks in advance for your help.

It has to do with the resolution of the picture. If you post the source photo, I will try to cut it to the correct size and format.

I do it with photo editting software. There are also programs that shrink size of photos without distorting the image. I used to have one but the license expired.
