Title: Nice Looking text. Post by: Exilis on October 27, 2008, 08:59:52 pm Hey guys, this is my first tutorial.
It's for how to make nice looking text in GIMP. Unfortunately I'm a little short on time, so I won't have screenshots here for awhile. Step 1: Make the text with the text tool. Step 2: Go to Dialogs>Layers or Hit Ctrl+L. Step 3: Right click the text layer and select "Duplicate Layer". Step 4: Drag the duplicate layer under the original text layer in the "Layers" window. Step 5: Select the blur tool and blur the duplicate layer. Step 6: Select the original text layer and change the layer styles around to make it look nice. I like Normal with a somewhat low opacity, overlay, soft light, and grain extract as layer styles, depending on the mood/font of the text. Title: Re: Nice Looking text.
