Here you'll learn a really cool effect you can use on your text or other objects, that makes them appear to be made of gel-like material.
This tutorial is for Photoshop 6 - a similar tutorial for previous versions will be added sometime soon.
1. Type your text using the color you prefer. The font used in this tutorial is called DomCasual BT... some other fonts that may work well include (but are not limited to) Arial Rounded MT Bold, Challenge Extra Bold, Comic Sans MS, and GoodDogPlain. Choose Layer-> Rasterize-> Type, then CTRL+Click on the layer to get a selection around the text.
2. Now, make a new layer above the the one with your text. Go to Select-> Modify-> Contract and choose a setting of about 5 (this may vary depending on the size and "fatness" of the font you are using). Choose a lighter shade of your text's color and press ALT+Delete to fill the selection. Press CTRL+D to deselect.
3. Next, go to Filter-> Blur-> Gaussian Blur and choose a setting of about 2.0 (again, this will vary depending on the size/fatness of your font).
4. Now that we have the basics out of the way, it's time to add some nifty Layer Styles to pull everything together. Select the original text layer and choose Layer-> Layer Style-> Bevel and Emboss. In the Bevel and Emboss menu, use the following settings, or if you prefer, click on the thumbnail image below to see a screenshot of the menu settings:
Style: Inner Bevel
Technique: Smooth
Depth: 61%
Direction: Up
Size: 8
Smooth: 0
Use Global: unchecked
Altitude: 30
Gloss Contour: Rolling Slope
Highlight: Screen with 100%
Shadow: Multiply with 100%
5. Once you have those settings entered, simply select the Drop Shadow and Inner Shadow layer style options, leaving them with default settings (or of course you can play with the settings to achieve the effect you are looking for).
You now have some very cool looking "Gel Text" =)
i hope you are understand
