Tutorial On Distorted Text?

I'm trying to duplicate an Oklahoma City Thunder shirt for my university.

I know how to place an image behind text, but I'm having trouble getting it to look like I want. If I use one big text box, I can't get the letters close enough together.

If I use multiple text boxes, I can't get all the clipping masks to come together right.

Is there anyway to nudge the text together like you can in indesign?

Just looking for any help here!

Thanks!

hi guys! reserved here! i just recently started up a new MLG Team for my Gaming Community XGC "Xiled Gaming Community" my team consists of some of the best players within xgc and we need a logo, so i was wondering if someone would be awesome enough to make one for me?

if you decide to what id like is rather simple for right now, all i want is to have like a 3D style text maybe with the first text "XG" in bold and the color to be yellow, now i want all the text to be diagonal starting from the bottom left to the top right if possible. then right under that text i want "Xiled Gamers" same text same color. then behind all the text i was like a shattered glass effect right where the "XG" is going across the whole thing if possible. if someone could do this for me, my whole team and i will be forever grateful!

Hello,

I'm new to PS and new to this forum, so be kind! I need to edit the font used in my product category images and to do it I have tried filling the text in with the matching colour, and then retype the text. However the images have been created (as you can see) with a transparent layer over the actual product and in-between the text. So my question is, how can I fill the text in without losing the "transparent" effect? below is an original image and an image where I have removed the text by filling it in


Many thanks, Ben

I did find a post to this but the solution did not help me and it was over a year ago so I did not want to bump an old thread. Here was the post I came across


"I'm having a bit of a strange problem with the text tool on CS4 at the moment.

When I have drawn a work-path with the pen tool and then attempt to type along it the text does now show up and I cannot edit it.
The cursor changes when I hover over the start of the path to indicate that the type path is available but once I click and start typing nothing seems to happen. The name of the text layer changes to what I've just typed however so it is definitely inputting it somewhere."



This is exactly what I am dealing with now. The solution in the original thread said make sure the text is not white on white background ( mine is black on transparent ) and is left justified and not center or right. My text is left justified and it still does not show up. My text is Wet Dynamite. The odd thing is my font size is currently 72, if I drop it down to 48, the W shows if I go smaller it disappears again. Even at 48 when the W shows, if I try to retype, I still can't see the rest of the phrase. I have done this method before and had no issues in the past with this technique. This seems like a bug in CS4 to me.

Any help with this would be great as I can't get past this stage in my design and can't use the warp tool for text because it looks like crap.

Thank you for your time. Ive saved my project out into a test file so you can see. If you can load it and easily see or add the text in the top curved path, then I know there has to be an issue with my CS4

Hi,
I'm wondering if this is possible:
The right side is what I'm trying to achieve.
It's a simple enough effect, but the problem is that I'm curious if it can be some sort of dynamic effect in that I can change the "A" text to "B" and still have the outline cut out of the "M" (Or whatever if I need to change the "M" text to "Q" or something).
Basically I need the "A" and "M" to be able to change while the stroke of whatever the "A" letter (or shape) is will always cut out whatever shape, text, or image is placed behind it.
Is this possible without having to manually cut it out of the back image every time?

The illusion can easily be created by having a white background and using a white stroke on the "A" (that creates the effect I'm wanting)..
However I need them to be transparent and easily editable so they can be saved as transparent images for multiple uses quickly and easily.
(I apologize if I didn't get this across very clearly)

Hi folks!

I don't use much text tool, but it's for curiosity.

When I type some word with text tool, all works fine, but when I tyoe a number or a dot in example, it puts in the beginning of the text...

TAL (Thanks a lot)

Hi everyone I'm a complete beginner with photoshop, I have CS6 I'm looking to copy a style of text from a photo and replace it with other text.

The style of text I am trying to copy is from a stamp so I don't think it will be in selection of texts available in photoshop, have tried looking around youtube for tutorials but I cannot find anything along these lines.

I've attached a photo of the text I would like to change, it says JUN 2014 I would like to change it to AUG 2014 using the same text.



Any advice much appreciated

Thanks

Hello,

Can someone that knows what they're doing provide me with a tutorial on how to achieve this visual effect?

......Admin edit .... please upload full image rather than off-site redirect.

I am talking about the green image on this flyer with the man who is standing with his back to us, and the faint green text that is superimposed around him.

My photoshop skills are moderate, so I can make all the layers of text and the man. My question is, how do I achieve the green fill that is used in the image.

How do I make the image "green" like that?

Is it a combination of making it grayscale and then replacing grey with green? Or should I use a mask and a translucent fill?

Big thanks in advance!

Hello Photoshop Guru forum, I think I need one such guru's help for something- I'm trying to conform a graphic logo image with text (currently using a non-vector) to curve along the edge of a circle without distorting the letters and such. The warp tool is somewhat helpful but too haphazard. In general I use PS more for painting and such, so my experience working with paths is limited.. anyone know what technique makes the most sense in this situation?

To reiterate, this is for a sticker project, so I'm trying to wrap a logo along the edge of a circular sticker. It doesn't occupy too much space, as it's going along the curve with other text. Using Photoshop CS4 on a Mac. Thanks for any assistance you guys can offer.

I was sent a jpg image that is primarily black and white, but has red text. It's flattened, but I need to give this image to the printer to be printed that way - the only red will be the text. I tried converting it to greyscale, then to duotone, but it puts a red tint on everything. I've tried adjusting the lines, but I can't get it where only the text is red. Isn't there a way to choose what areas I want the second color on? Thanks!
