Use some dark gray to fill the background. You can use the Bucket Tool or to go Edit / Fill and then choose the color. I’ll go with #535353 gray. Now pick a font type and size. For the font color choose light gray. Mine pick is arial black type with anti-aliasing set on strong and color #a9a9a9. Write something.  Go to Blending Options for the text layer. Set the Outer Glow on something like this:  Now add Inner Glow with the settings similar with these:  Next one is Gradient Overlay:   Add a Stroke:  Duplicate the text layer. Set the copy underneath the original text layer and above the background layer. Right-click on the copy and choose Clear Layer Style. Set the Fill on 0%.  Add the Outer Glow to the copy layer with these settings:  Now apply the Stroke:  Create a new layer above the original text layer (Layer / New / Layer…). Hold down a ctrl key and click on text layer. Now fill the selection with white. Set the opacity on 50%. Deselect the selection.   Pick Rectangular Tool, select the bottom half of text and press delete.  That’s all. Discuss this on the forum. |
