Hello! Today, I will show you how to make a kind of text effect that will look like some kinda vortex thing. here is the result: Hope you like it! 1. Open a new image. size it about 400x400 2. Add the text. 3. Use the magix wand tool and select only the text. After that, do a gradient of the colour of the text on it. 4. Use a Gaussian Blur(Effects>Blur>Gaussian Blur). Set it to 7 5. set the magic wand way high. And select all the canvas with it. 6. Do a Twist(Effects>Distort>Twist). Set amount -18.47. Size 1.04 and quality 5. 7. Duplicate the layer. Uncheck the top layer's box. So it will now look invisible. 8. on the bottom layer, go to Adjustments>Brightness Contrast. Change it to full settings so it would look white. 9. Go to effects>noise>add noise. Set Intensity 100, saturation 0 and coverage 100. Go to effects and repeat it for 2 times. 10. Go to effects>blur>motion blur. Angle 25, distance 27. 11. change the colour to black and to some clouds(effects>render>clouds). scale 250, roughness 0.50, blend mode colour burn. 12. Check the first layer's box. So it will be visible again. On the first layer, use the magix wand and select only the area outside the text. 13. Click on the bottom layer and click on delete. It should look the same. 14. On the top layer, change the layer blend mode to anything you want. I used Overlay to do this one and here it what I got. 15. Merger the layers down. So you only have 1 layer now. 16. Add some curves, here is mine. 17. Done! Here are some others I made:

This is pretty simple. before I teach you how to make it, here's what we're doing to make: it's really easy. You can also learn how to make fire in this tut. Plugins needed Ed Harvey Effects(Splinter) Credit: One of the steps has been used in this tutorial: http://paintdotnet.forumer.com/viewtopic.php?f=15&t=21019 :AddNewLayer: Open an image first with the size of 400x400 1. Use the rounded rectangle tool and make something like this. (Remember, change the primary colour to black, and secondary colour to white first) 2. Use the rounded rectangle tool and make something like this. But this time, change it to draw filled shape with outline. 3. Then draw something like this. Change it to draw filled shape first. And change filled type to Dark downward diagonal. 4. Next, Zoom Blur(effects>Blur>Zoom blur) it. Make it like this. 5. Pencil Sketch(Effects>Artistic>Pencil Sketch) it. Full settings. 6. :AddNewLayer: Add a new layer. Make it above the layer you jsut did Pencil Sketch on. 7. Do a Mandelbrot Fractal(Effects>Render>Mandelbrot Fractal). Make it like this. 8. Do a Splinter(Effects>Blur>Splinter). Make it like this. 9. Do a Zoom blur. Make it Zoom amount 51 again. 10. Next change the layer you just did zoom Blur on to the blending mode Difference. Do that by clicking F4. It will look some what of a firey effect. 11. On the layer below the firey effect. Do a splinter like this. 12. Merge the 1st layer down. So now, you only ahve 1 layer to work with. 13. Do some Curves.(Adjustments>Curves) Set to Luminosity. I did it like that. 14. :AddNewLayer: Add a new layer. Make it above the layer you just did Curves on. 15. Fill the wholve canvas blur with the Paint Bucket. (Hex: 0026FF) Remember to change it to Solid Colour. You can also use some other colours. But remember to use dark ones. However, don't use Black or white! 16. Now, add some Noise(Effects>Noise>Add Noise). Intensity 100, Colour Saturation 0 and Coverage to 100. after that, repeat that for 2 times. It should look like that afterward. 17. Do a Motion Blur.(Effects>Blur>Motion Blur). Set Angle to 25, and Distance to 40. 18. On the layer you did the motion blur on. Do some Clouds(Effects>Render>Clouds). Remember to change the colour to black. And change the blending mode to Colour Burn. 19. Change that layer's blending mode(press F4) to anything. Although I suggest Addictive, Colour Dodge, Reflect, Overlay, Difference, Negation, Lighten or Screen. The one I did below is Screen. 20. Done! Sorry if there are any grammar mistakes. I'm not a fluent englsih speaker.

Nice! but I don't like how the inside of the bubble looks.

Awesome! But I'll rather prefer it without a border.
