entY8 Posted July 8, 2006 Share Posted July 8, 2006 If you've got the guy on a seperate layer (otherwise, achieve that first), make a new layer below the guy but on top of the background. Then select the guy layer, use magic wand on the area around the guy, invert the selection and switch to the new made (glow) layer. Then use the fill tool with the color you want the glow to be on the still selected area. Now use gaussian blur; the higher the radius of the blur, the higher the radius of the glow Move to General Discussion, btw. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bob Posted July 8, 2006 Share Posted July 8, 2006 Copy the layer and Glow just only one. The deepest. Quote No. Way. I've just seen Bob. And... *poof!*—just like that—he disappears into the mist again. ~Helio Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
entY8 Posted July 8, 2006 Share Posted July 8, 2006 Copy the layer and Glow just only one.The deepest. I don't think the glow effect is suitable here. Afaik it works better for lighter colors than for darker ones, so the glow wouldn't be even. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LimeLight Posted July 29, 2006 Share Posted July 29, 2006 Ooh, Oooh, I know a really easy way. Drop Shadow, set the X and Y axis' to "0" and set the glow blur or size or whatever it is to whatever suits your mood. Pick a color and you're done. BTW, that used to be my sig on another message board lol. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
