jverbgraphics Posted January 20, 2006 Share Posted January 20, 2006 I was wondering if anyone could share an easy way to make letters and numbers triple outlined in photoshop? I have figured out how to do one color outlined in a second color but not a third. Thanks for your help! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
paynomind Posted January 20, 2006 Share Posted January 20, 2006 Here is what I'd do:Type in your first outline color. Them convert to curves. Then, select the type. Go to Select and Modify > Contract.... use a couple pixels (depending on how big your art is) Then fill on a new layer.Then, select the orginal text again, go to select > modify > expand, and fill on a new layer, below the others.It aint perfect, but neither is creating things in photoshop.

deked73 Posted January 22, 2006 Share Posted January 22, 2006 I have an Photoshop 5. When I need to get triple colors on the letters, I use outer and inner glow. Go under layer, select effects, and use inner glow and outer glow. Pick your colors, put mode at normal, 100% opacity, 600 intensity, and use blur to change size of stripe. It is not perfect, but it could work. If you want sharp edges you will have to fix it by hand. Because the glow effect rounds the corners off. I hope this helps a little bit.
