<div class="IPBDescription">fonts?</div> I want to know how to do this in photoshop...

what i did was i opened paint and did a flood in grey

then i took a darker grey and used the 3box font (downloaded)

then i went over the edges with the line tool in black

edit:

also does anyone know where to get some good free fonts?

    The Modelling forum? Should be renamed the AvP forum. <!--emo&;)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/wink.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='wink.gif'><!--endemo-->

    I'm working on a little something that will hopefully get this forum moving a bit faster. People seem not to be doing much NS related art, which saddens me.

    To do that in photoshop:

    -fill the background-layer with gray

    -select the 'type'-tool and type your text.

    -fill your text-layer with dark-gray

    -add layer-style "Stroke" to the text-layer, and set its color to black

    -you're done!


    some good free-fonts: <a href='http://www.1001fonts.com' target='_blank'>http://www.1001fonts.com</a>

    That's pretty good, I don't even know how to put Text in an image with PhotoShop, I haven't used it much. But www.acidfonts.com is a great site for TONS of fonts.

    if you've got Kazaa, try looking for NO ADS.... it's awsome, you encounter it one, add it to the target list, and it never comes up again...or, if you want to be a litle more daring, enter words into the "wildcard section" example of wildcard: Gator now, ANY window with gator in it, will be closed. (even aligator will be closed).... the only problem with noads: you have to hit the popup ad once, good thing about noads: it never closes the wrong window on you.... and if it does, it's your fault <!--emo&:D--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif' border='0' valign='absmiddle' alt='biggrin.gif'><!--endemo-->

    i get my fonds from arttoday.com.... but then again, i have a membership, i don't have to pay the $0.25 a font.....

    i never see people in here either, but i come in and out alot... i really hate forums for that reason, not as fast paced as a chat room, and a little more addictive too....

    but with forums you can usually come back to look over something

    instead of looking in logs which can be vauge <!--emo&:p--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' valign='absmiddle' alt='tounge.gif'><!--endemo-->

    yeah, but then again, all the placement of your post governs alot about the hits it gets, it's almost having a website.... but not
