Flaming Text Tutorial for Photoshop

Step 1: Open a new image in Photoshop. I used the size to be “500 x 125” pixels.

Step 2: Fill the background with Black Color. For this, firstly, select the Foreground color as Black, then select the Paint Bucket Tool. Now click anywhere in the image to fill it.

Step 3: It’s time to write our text on the image. Click the ‘Horizontal Text Type Tool’ and click on the image. A cursor will blink, where you can write the text. (Don’t worry if nothing appears. The text color is black by default, which is same as background color. Just type what you want, and we will fix this later).

Step 4: Change the font color to ‘White’ from the ‘set text color’ box (see screenshot). You can adjust the Font Style and Font Size also. I recommend using simple fonts like ‘Monotype Corsiva’ in this effect.

Step 5: Now go to “Layer || Flatten Image” or press “Ctrl+Shift+E” to merge the text layer and the background layer.
Step 6: Now, go to “Filter || Stylize || Wind” and choose “From the Right” direction and press OK. Again go to “Filter || Stylize || Wind” and choose “From the Left” direction and press OK.

Step 7: Now choose the option “Image || Rotate Canvas || 90° CW” Repeat Step 6 now. You will get the following result.

Step 8: Make the image normal by “Image || Rotate Canvas || 90° CCW”

Step 9: Choose the option “Filter || Stylize || Glowing Edges” A dialog box will open up. You can see three sliders here. Adjust them as you wish. I used these settings :
·Edge Width – 1
·Edge Brightness – 9
·Smoothness – 5

Press OK when satisfied. You will get something like this.

Step 10: Time to give the final effects. Choose “Image || Mode || Grayscale” (Choose ‘discard’ if a message pops-up). After that, choose “Image || Mode || Indexed Color”
Step 11: Go to “Image || Mode || Color Table” and select ‘Black Body’ from the drop-down menu.

Step 12: Finally, choose the “Image || Mode || RGB Color” option. You are done. Now, you can save the image in any format you wish.

You can use the above method to overlay a Flaming Text on any image or siggy to make it look
