I need to add some text to this shot of DJ Larry. He might want to use it for a flyer. He wanted just the black background and I think it would look a lot better with text saying "DJ Larry". I will give him both final products but....

I have no clue how to make flashy text. Maybe something like these styles...
Can anyone help?


Thanks,

Photoshop has a "Styles" panel that does some pretty good effects on text. You can apply those and muck with them from there. You may also be able to find some add-on styles for it if you search.



Hope that helps.

You may want to remove that wrinkle on his tee first :)

Then maybe go to the Alien Skin website and download their trial version of EyeCandy

Yes that was going to be my next move was getting that wrinkle out and removing the chain.

The net effect of the pattern looks a bit more camo than disco
