m2lucky Posted December 14, 2008 Share Posted December 14, 2008 Hey guys I have been reading a lot of tutorials and I was looking for an Ice font like this but I couldn't find it so I decided to make my own. This is my first tutorial let me know what you think. Plugins usedDrop Shadowhttp://paintdotnet.forumer.com/viewtopic.php?f=16&t=22881 1. You can start out with whatever size you want I am using 600 by 200 2. Then use CTRL-A, then delete. This will leave you with a transparent background 3. Then Type your words with a light blue font I used Baveuse size 72 Hex# DBFFE1 4. Create a new Layer 5. Ok, Now go back to the background layer and with the magic wand tool hold SHIFT and click on your text. You should have just the text selected. 6. Once you have your whole text selected go to Layer 2. 7. Now change your primary color to white and your secondary color to full transparent. 8. On Layer 2 use a linear gradient from the top to the bottom. This should give a slight shininess to your text. 9. De-select your layers with CTRL-D 10. Merge your layers together 11. Now use the frosted glass plug-In I used the settings Min: 6.23 Max: 1.08 Smoothness: 8 12. Now use a drop shadow. Here are the settings I used Alright now you should end up with something like this Well that was my first tutorial let me know what you think, and I would love to see your attempts Music Brings color to the world Photobucket Sucks!
