1 Tutorial a Day-11th Entry Color Chrome Text
This one seemed pretty cool mainly because I am really trying to learn more text effects. I think a lot of them would be good to consider when creating logos, not all of them but some. So I went to webtoolkit4.me and found this one, I actually did a google search for tutorials having to do with text and found this one. I have never been to this site before I have to check out what other goodies they have!
Here is the look chromed out with a little color in there. Now every one who has messed around with Photoshop has probably come across the Plastic Wrap filter which gives a some what similar effect. But this was totally done in Layer Styles which is great for learning about Layer Styles.
Here is my version, I decided to add a reflection, some strokes of light and some bling. I made the reflection in 2 seconds you can check out how HERE, I have been doing that one for a while so it gets easier and faster every time. Actually my friend ryan showed me that one, you can check out his cool graphic design over at mean-e.com. The strokes of light are from a paintbrush set I found on the internet a while back, just do a google search and you will find them or something cooler. I just added all that stuff to change it up a little, you have to make these tutorials yours in some way. Have fun with them and experiment with the possibilities that’s what I did. There you have it something for that special someone! CINTA!

Hey there Mate,
Good site. Some interesting and informative posts man
I know, I am creeping,lol. I hope can produce something like this myself one day. Who did you source your templates from?
Hopefully one of you folks may be able to help me out a little here. I am searching for someone who I was informed told used to be a member with this site. They used to use the name ‘tafffslaffs’.
You see I am wanting to start my own website on health type content for things such as: nonlaser tooth whitening (hence the where did you get your templates from,lol) but am having realllll difficulty getting hold of dropshippers for these goods. I had been in touch with this guy but my PC got stolen and unfortunately had all my contact details on it (I know, I know, should have backed it up
)
So if you guys have heard or seen anything of him could you send me a message please? Failing that maybe one of you guys knows someone?
Also, which hosting do you use as I keep hearing negative tales about the host I am considering of placing my site with. Also any other helpful tips you could give re starting up my site would be helpful and gratefully appreciated.
I do hope that someone has helpful information on this
Thanks Bro,
