alright well i was making a glitter text thing for a friend using cheri liney font. she wanted the outline to be a black glitter and the inside to be a blue glitter. well when i was done filling the outline, i could not use the magic wand tool to select inside.... does my program have a problem? i was able to last time.
Heres an example of what i want to do..  see how inside its glittery? how do i select the inside. i keep trying but iot keeps selecting the outline... |

basically, when you modify extend the outside to have the outline, save that as a new layer. then when you select it, the font and outline will be on seperate layers, and you will then be able to work w. them seperately.

You use.... PSP? Or PS? I believe this works for both.
You make two copies of the font, if that makes any sense. One for the black part and one for the blue part. And you merge the corresponding layers together. =S Does that make any sense? |
