[LOCK]how to make shadows for writing in photoshop [/LOCK]

[Doomboi]

1- Open a picture (preferably empty) 1024X768 recommended

 

2- Write what you want to (make it big)

 

3- Rasterize the writing

 

4- CTRL+click the thumbnail of the writing

 

5- Feather it (around ten if its the recommended size)

 

6- Make a new layer

 

7- Fill the new layer WITHOUT deselecting the feathered selection (black)

 

8- Drag layer 2 into the correct place

PS: If this is old or too easy, don't flame me.

PPS: I don't know if it'll work on gimp or other image programs but if it does go for it.

if your using one of the newer versions of photoshop,you can right-click your layer and click layer option,then use the drop shadow option and change the settings around a little
