Tip #82 - X-Files Wannabe...

[ How do you do that type like on X-Files?
...signed a reader


Greetings,
I need a program that will do that fuzzy back lighting, lettering like I've seen on the X-files. (that green glow) for either WIN95 or NT?

Isn't that fun? No problem...
Photoshop or Paint Shop Pro will do back lightning, and it's fairly easy to do.
Of course everyone already has Adobe's URL bookmarked, but if you want to take another look at a different angle, try: http://www.webweaverxxi.com/psp40/ where you can see just how to do it.

But Jane, we're prepared a seminar for this question with a quick little tutorial on the technique using Photoshop (or ColorIT or any other painting program)


Thank you Jane for the question!
