Little tip on text effect
Little tip on text effect
(OP)
This may be an obvious one to regular users of PSP, but here's a nice simple text effect:
1) Write some (white) text on a coloured background
2) Go to Image/Blur/Motion blur
3) Set the direction to 90 and intensity to high (like 40)
4) Select the text again (what you previously typed will be saved - at least it does in PSP5)
5) Place the same type over the blurred image
6) Hey presto! Simple but cool effect.
For an example, check out the blue band at the top of www.syclick.com
