Glass Text Effect

Hello there again... After long hiatus, lol... welcome again to my another free Photshop, today we're gonna create a Photoshop Glass Text Effect. We're gonna demonstrate how you guys can achieve that style in just a couple of steps a Photoshop Glass Text Effect only using layer styles.. Yupp... with only using it.

First you have to create a new blank doc, 630 x 250 px is enuf. Type the text that you're going to apply the layer style and apply a gradient to the background layer. It's all up to you to create your own BG style of it.

See first the image below... Hell yeah.. you guys just need in about 2 Layers on your workflow... Background Layer combined with Text Layer... there's no need others.. Go Go Go!!!

Right click on text layer and choose Blending Options, The Blending Options Panel appears, Now you need to enter the exact setting that you seen in the screenshots for each of the effects.

Select the Drop Shadow and enter the exact setting from the screenshot.

And the mission is now accomplished.

The beauty of this style is that you can insert any background and you will be able to see through the text.

I hope you learned new skills and techniques from this tut I also hope they will help you on your future projects. Like usual... try to experiment all the time when practicing. Staying well organized will help you to stay focus more on the design.

After 2 days and 1 night get hiatus, I can still see the differences in this layout... feels different, a bit less comfortable, very sensitive kinda part of the keypad buttons of this damn layout.
