Morning Guys,

Today i woke up and while started to browse pixel2life.... suddenly I thought to write a tutorial.

So here we go.

This is the final image i have got.

Before beginning the tutorial...

I want to remind you that the two shades of glow used here are professionally used in many ways. Reminding you about proxicide's MKvsSF-3. He used the both glow effects in his movies to make it more catchy. But here is a quick reference to those glow shades.

 So start with a 640 x 480 document with Transparent Background and click on OK.

Now Press D*. (D to make your foreground color "Black" and Background color "white). Use Alt+Backspace to fill the foreground color to background. Now you have a black background.

Now type your text:- Anything you like to type (your name or girlfriend's name whatever)

Now click on Layer -> New Adjustment Layer -> Color Balance

Now adjust the color balance settings as shown below.

Note:-Ensure that "Preserve Luminiousity" is checked.

 Click on Ok and now Select the text layer

Click Ctrl+J to duplicate the Text Layer.

Now duplicated text layer is selected. Click on Layer -> Rasterize -> Type

Now still selecting the rasterized layer Click on Filter -> Blur and enter the following settings in it.

Now what you see here is giving 10 pixel blur to Rasterized text layer.

The color we see here is due to the color balance adjustment layer above the Rasterized text layer.

Now Press Ctrl+A. It will select the whole canvas.

Now Press Shift + Ctrl +C. It will copy all the layers objects in a merged clipboard data.

Now press Ctrl + N. It will open a new document......... click on OK

Now Press Ctrl + V to paste the content

Now select half of the canvas and give it a feather of 120px like this.

Make sure the selection is active.

Now Press Ctrl+U to open Hue/Saturation or Image -> Adjustment -> Hue/Saturation

Enter the following values Enter 125 in Hue and Press OK

 Here is the Result.

See how easy it is .

Now you are done

Enjoy!
