ok... second tut...

1) Create new document... doesnt matter how big (i used 1024x768)

2) Using paint can, make backround black

3) Use Horizonal Type Mask Tool (right click in the type tool and its the empty 't' with a dashed outline), type your text (one word, its looks better)

4) Fill the text (using paint can) with white.

5) Duplicate the layer, title the new layer 'wind fx'

6) On 'wind fx' layer apply a filters->distort->polar coordinates (polar to rectangle)

7) Apply a filters->stylize->wind (wind, from left) hit ctrl+f 2 times (this does the wind filter 2 times) so you have done the wind filter 3 times on this side

8) Image->rotate canvas-> 180 deg

9) Hit crtl+f 3 times (wind filter 3 times, remember?)

10) Image->Rotate Canvas->90 CW

11) Ctrl+f 3 times (wind filter)

12) Image-> Rotate Canvas-> 90 CW

13) Filter-> Distort-> Polar Coordinates (rectangular to polar)

14) *OPTIONAL* To add colour create new layer paint can it the color of you choice and set the blending options of the layer to 'overlay'


Voila

Ratings?

If this is incorrect please by all means, let me know...

heh, I like it, it's just almost impossible to read the text.

Doulbe Take!

I was like "ooh that's cool" then i read Y3llow's comment and went :blink: THERE WAS TEXT? :o

Then i seen the text B) :P

Yeah... i know the text is hard to read, i just use if or awsome effects/ backroudn stuff.

I found a way to make it readable! yay!

Ok, so when you add the color, dont set the blending mode to 'overlay' or 'color' set it to 'color burn' and its very readable! :lol:

I see you made this one yourself eh? with the help of good tutorials.com?

...no... just because i made the same thing that someone else did means i got it from them? ...ok... have fun with that...
