all work you adapt ur files man, you need change sql,xml & .dat files.

yes man is only for FDwarf read post I put this.

yes man this work in L2JTEON

look you know why, because this is not a discussion if the server is hosted at home or in Germany, who cares that you think a little before commenting nonsense.

stop making stupids post man, no only for u, for all ppl think im not CriticalError, I don't give nobody account, im real CriticalError and make so many post I found in the net, you don't like work ok leave comments o make smth be urself but stop making spam!!!!

very nice job mate, this is really usefull keep working

ofc same of Nevos and I told you before, you can do manually o can fix counting how much column have in your database and check how much u have in ur SQL, just fix that adding other value o delete is neccessary and you done :)

always same, you can fix this manually really easy man, just need see how much row's have in ur DB and check ur SQL download, so just add o delelete some value depend you have in your DB.

you need adapt sql for your DB man, read how much row's have in DB Navicat and next read how much have in SQL so just add o delete value and you done.

is not my server and I don't play nab, stop flame in topic o report to MOD.

read better man

Ok guys when looking for top quality content, you’re usually forced to pay for your resources. They’re generally better and easier to work with, and offer a wider range of use. Sometimes though, you can find the same level of quality at zero cost, and it’s exactly what we’re going to do today. We’re going to create a detailed illustration with free gifts and self made goodies. Step 1 The first thing we’ll do is create a very large wooden texture. Getting the same result may be difficult, so just try to obtain something that looks like a wood texture. Start up Photoshop and create a new document. Make it big; somewhere around 6000 px by 6000 px (300 ppi). Select a dark brown (#48403a) as the foreground color and a lighter version (#ac9f92) as the background color. Fill the document’s background with the foreground color (#48403a) and go to Filter > Render > Fibers. Change the settings (Variance of 12.0 and Strength of 34.0) and randomize it until you get something similar. Playing around with the settings can help. Step 2 We’ll now give the fibers more depth and a darker color. Go to Layer > New Adjustment Layer > Gradient Map. Once you created it, change its layer Blending Mode to Overlay and Opacity to 50%. Step 3 Now create a new blank layer and fill it with the color #633a1c. Set the layer’s Blending Mode to Multiply. Step 4 And finally, select the Gradient Tool (G). Choose white as the foreground color, and create a white to transparent white gradient from top to bottom. Change the layer Opacity to somewhere around 10%. Select the entire canvas (Command + A) and copy the merged file (Command + Shift + C). Step 5 Create a new Photoshop document using a landscape A4 canvas (29,7 x 21 cm at 300 ppi). I created mine in CMYK format, so if you want the colors to make any sense, make sure you select CMYK, not RGB. Now add the type to this new document. Download this free font and type in each letter on a separate layer. The color doesn’t matter, as it will be replaced by a texture. I chose different shades of green just to show the layer order. Step 6 Now double-click on the letter “T” layer and add these effects. Here are the color codes for each of them: Drop Shadow set to #000000; Outer Glow set to #476454; Bevel and Emboss Highlight set to #f09629 and Shadow set to #45293c, and Stroke set to #466454. Altogether, your effects should look like the image below. Step 7 Copy the layer style (right-click on layer and go to Copy Layer Style) and paste it over the rest. Also, create a large ampersand behind all the letters. Step 8 Create a new blank layer above the letter “T” and make it a clipping mask. Place the wooden texture inside. Step 9 Create another blank layer as a clipping mask above the texture. Make a selection of the “T” layer (Command + Click on the layer icon) and contract it by seven pixels (Select > Modify > Contract). Step 10 Fill it with white and blur it slightly (Filter > Blur > Gaussian Blur). Step 11 Change the Layer’s opacity to 40% and select the eraser tool (E). Make it about 80% soft and erase the bottom part. Step 12 Get this and this screw. Cut them out with the pen tool and desaturate them (Command + Shift + U). We’ll use the first one for large screws and the second for smaller ones. Place one of the large ones in the middle of the “T” and apply the effects shown below. It will now look like it’s holding the “T” in place. Step 13 Do the same to create the smaller one and place these screws on all the letters. Step 14 Now you’ll need this free ornate pattern. Open it in Illustrator and double-click on the flourish detail (not the pattern). Use the Direct Selection Tool (A) to select a white part of the detail. Change its color to #486554, Copy it (Command + C) and paste it (Command + V) into the Photoshop file as a Smart Object. Step 15 Now add this layer style shown below. It looks odd now, but it will be better once we add the second color. Step 16 Create a new blank layer as a clipping mask and paint (#74cdd8) with a soft brush the tips of the flourish detail. Step 17 Group the layers (Command + G) and duplicate the group, then position it accordingly. Step 18 Place a large one on the bottom. Step 19 Add a few smaller ones that appear to come out of the large one underneath. Try to keep an orientation that feels natural and organic. Step 20 Add the final ones too. Step 21 As usual, we’ll adjust the colors and contrast of the document with good ol’ Adjustment Layers. Add the first one by going to Layer > New Adjustment Layer > Gradient Map. Step 22 Now add a Selective Color Adjustment Layer and use the Colors drop down menu to get to Blacks. Step 23 I thought the composition needed a touch of another color, so let’s add some orange. Duplicate one of the floral patterns and make it smaller. Delete the bright cyan and paint with this color instead: #f7db58. Step 24 Add a few more. Step 25 Now, make a selection of each letter and paint with the same color. Step 26 Go back to the Go Media Illustrator file and double-click the ornate pattern this time. Select the white part, and make it black. Copy it and go to Photoshop. Create a new document and keep the Clipboard size. Paste the pattern into the new document that should be an exact fit. Make the Background layer invisible and go to Edit > Define Pattern. Step 27 Create a new blank layer above the wood texture background in our illustration. Select the Bucket Tool, and click on the drop down menu to paint a pattern. Select the newly created one and create one in the blank layer. Add the layer styles shown below. This is what you should see at 100%. Step 28 Create a new layer, make it a clipping mask and paint with a very large, soft shadow a few white glows near the center. Keep the Opacity low so that they don’t become too obvious. Step 29 Use the same orange to paint a few subtle glows in a few places, just like in the previous layer. Conclusion Finding the right resources can be a great way to eventually create your own typographic illustrations. It’s like learning from others before you do everything by yourself. In time, you’ll be able to create details that are not only of the same or even better quality, but also something that reflects your style. And hopefully, I’ll be able to write a tutorial about that some day! You can view the final image below. Credits by Alex Beltechi

Ok let take typography one step further by having text falling from the sky in a burning inferno. Yes, this is the text-on-fire tutorial to end all tutorials. It uses a little Illustrator for the text and a lot of Photoshop to burn up the screen! So in this tutorial, I will show you how to create a fire effect similar to when a spaceship or comet enters the earth’s atmosphere. The image we’ll be creating is inspired by a Nike Ad I saw some time ago. It’s always a good idea to keep your eyes open for inspiration for effects and designs no matter what you are doing. Graphics are everywhere and you can learn a lot by looking at what other people do. Now on to the tutorial! Step 1 First create a new document and fill it with a dark grey. Step 2 Create a new layer, call it “Clouds,” and using the Lasso Tool (L), make a selection similar to the one I’ve shown below. Set your background color to a 50% grey and the foreground to a dark grey. Go to Filter > Render > Clouds and, holding the Alt key, create clouds. After that go to Images > Adjustments > Levels, and change the input levels and output levels until you make the clouds neither too dark nor too light (see the image shown). This layer will be on top of the others. Step 3 Create another layer and repeat Step 2, but this time just change the background color from 50% gray to a blue or green color. This will create a small cloud, lighter than the big one. Step 4 Now we’ll switch to Adobe Illustrator to create some text. I used Times New Roman for the font. After that go to Effect > 3D > Extrude and Bevel. Now we will create the 3D text. Rotate the object and change the perspective. You can use the same values as I did (shown below). Step 5 1. Copy the 3D text and paste it in Photoshop. 2. Place it in the center and add some Noise (Filter > Noise > Add Noise). 3. Now let’s change the Layer Style. First add Bevel and Emboss. 4. After that, let’s add a Gradient Overlay. Step 6 1. Duplicate the Type layer and add a Motion Blur (Filter > Blur > Motion Blur). 2. Set the angle of the blur to -53. 3. Change the layer mode to Linear Dodge (Add). 4. Create a Folder, call it “Typo,” and move these two layers into it. Step 7 Create a new layer and repeat the Step 2, this time using a selection as shown going out the back of the letter T. This will create the trailing smoke. Step 8 Creating the FIRE 1 – Create a new layer and call it “fire1.” 2 – With the Elliptical Marquee Tool (M), create a selection. 3 – Set the background color to light grey and the background to black. 4 – Create clouds as we did in Step 2. 5 – Change the Levels to increase the contrast; 6 – Change the Hue/Saturation with Colorize selected until you get an orange/yellow color. Step 9 Create a new layer, call it “blazes,” and repeat Step 8. After that, duplicate the layer and call it “flames.” Create a folder and move the Fire1, Blazes, and Flames layers to this folder and call the whole folder “Fire.” It will be on top of the Typo layer. Step 10 Select the layer “blazes” and go to Filter > Liquefy. There select the Turbulence Tool (T). Now, on the edges of the fire, start creating some blazes. Use it like you would the smudge tool. Set 11 After the Liquefy, go to Edit > Transform > Warp and change the blaze’s form to something similar to the image below. After that apply Filter > Sharpen > Sharp. Step 12 1. Create a new layer and call it “yellow color.” 2. Create an ellipse selection with 30px feather and fill it with white. 3. After that edit the Layer Style and apply a Color Overlay using an yellow color and Multiply for the layer’s blend mode. Step 13 The order and the Blend modes for the fire are: 1. Flames: Lighter Color 2. Blazes: Normal 3. Fire1: Lighten 4. Yellow Color: Multiply Step 14 Sparks For the sparks we will use brushes. Create a folder and call it “Sparks.” It will be on top of the Fire folder. 1. Inside the folder, add a new layer. 2. Fill it with black and change the Blend Mode to Color Dodge. 3. Select the Brush Tool and let’s create a brush. 4. In Brush Tip Shape, change the Diameter to 12, and increase the spacing. 5. Select Scattering and set Scatter to the 1000% and Control to off. Change the Count to 2 and Count Jitter to 100%. 6. Select white and start painting some sparks. Step 15 Create a new layer and repeat the Step 14 but now change the Scatter Option to 0%. Start creating some single line sparks like swirls. Step 16 Here I used the Gomedia Spraypaint brushes to create those tiny little sparks, but you can repeat the step 14 changing the Brush size only. Basically, create a new layer, put it behind the others, fill it with black, change the Blend Mode to Color Dodge, see the color to white, and create the sparks. Conclusion Credits by Fabio

Ok today tutorial we will demonstrate how to create a cosmic love goddess using some of Photoshop CS5's new tools including the Refine Edge Feature which really helps to streamline the process of masking and removing objects from their background. Step 1 Normally, I would ignore this step because it’s quite basic but Photoshop CS5's new Refine Edge feature is extremely easy to use and can save you a lot of time. Okay, let’s get started! Open your stock photo. Choose the Quick Selection Tool (W), it may be hidden under the Magic Wand Tool. Depending on your photo’s resolution, choose a suitable brush size, then paint over the parts you don’t need as shown below. With selection still activated, click Refine Edge on the Option bar. When the Refine Edge dialog box comes appears, choose View: On Layer (Hotkey: L). Use the settings below: * Edge Detection: Check Radius, Radius: 6px * Smooth: 20 * Constrast: 20% * Shift Edge: +20% * Check Decontaminate Colors: 70% for Amount. Don’t click OK! With the Refine Edge dialog box still open, click "Refine Radius Tool (E) expand detection area" on the left side. Then draw over the cutting edges, do this a few times to get a desired result. Save this as a PSD file or a PNG with a transparent background. We will need this later on. Step 2 Open Sky 1. Go to Image > Adjustments > Curves: Place Sky 2 into the document and scale it to fit. Position on top of the background layer and set blending mode to Overlay. Now place the Wave photo. Go to Edit > Transform > Flip Vertical. Position "wave" layer between the two cloud layers. Change blending mode to Multiply. Step 3 Now place the PSD/PNG model photo from Step 1 into your working document. Put her on the top layer (name it Model). Cmd + T to resize her and rotate as shown below. Place the Wings photo into your working document. Resize, rotate, then Duplicate the "wings" layer. Put one below the Model layer and one above. With the "Wings front" layer still activated, pick the Eraser Tool (E), with the brush’s hardness set to 100%. Remove the left wing to reveal model’s body. Don’t worry, we already have a backup wing underneath. Step 4 Place the Helmet image into the working document, name it "Helmet" and put it on the top layer. Use the Lasso Tool (L) to cut it into 2 parts (back and front) and split it into 2 different layers. Put the "Helmet back" layer underneath the Model layer and set "Helmet back’s opacity to 60%. Resize and Rotate them as shown below. Pick the Dodge Tool (O) and use a small soft brush set to Range: Highlights, Exposure: 80%. Shade both helmet front & back until it looks shiny. Step 5 Place the Necklace photo into your working document on the topmost layer. Resize, rotate, and Distort it until it fits on the model’s neck. Step 6 Let’s add a bit more hair to the model using our Hair Brush set. Use the technique we outlined in Step 3 to reveal the model’s arm. Step 7 Now let’s make some ribbons with the Pen Tool (P). Create a new layer on top of everything, name it Ribbon 1, select the Pen Tool (P), then draw a path like the one shown below (remember to use the Direct Selection Tool to customize your path where needed). Using the Direct Selection Tool, right click on the path, then choose "Fill path", fill it with any color, then click OK. We will fix it later. Apply a layer style as shown below with a Gradient Overlay. Note : if your ribbon is not curvy enough, just go to Edit > Transform > Warp, with this tool you can freely create many styles of ribbons. As you can see I created two more ribbons with their Opacity set to 60%. Step 8 Now let’s create some stars. Choose the Brush Tool (B), select a soft brush 15px, then open the Brush Palette. Paint stars on the canvas as shown below. Use the scatter and size jitter feature to vary the size and placement of each star. Set Star layer’s blending mode to Overlay, then select the Eraser Tool using a soft, large brush to erase stars you don’t want. Step 9 Open the Rose photo, cut out one piece, crop it, then go to Edit > Define Brush > Name it Rose. Now go back to your working document, select your Brush Tool (B), choose the rose brush that you just created, open the Brush Palette and use the settings below. Create a new layer and bring it to the front. Choose red, orange as colors, draw pieces of rose that follow her body, after her hand. Step 10 Go to Layer > New Adjustment Layer > Color Balance. Do this three times to make three Color Balance layers. Use the settings below. Now click on the layer mask thumbnail of the Color Balance 2 layer, select the Eraser Tool using a soft, large brush with the Opacity set to 50% erase the center area of the picture, do the same thing with the Color Balance layer 3 and you are finished! Final Image Take a look at the final image below. Credits by Nhan Trung Hoang

Hello today in this tutorial, we will create this effect using very basic Photoshop tools and layering effects. This tutorial is simple enough for a beginner to understand, but I should warn you that in this tutorial there ends up being over 60 active text layers, which will require a heavy use of your computer’s memory. Let’s jump into this tutorial and layer some glowing text. Step 1 Make a new document that is 2000px by 1200px. Then make a new Gradient Adjustment Layer with a linear gradient that goes from a dark gray (#464646) at the bottom to black (#000000) at the top. This will be our background base. Step 2 Make another linear Gradient Adjustment Layer above the previous one, and make it a rainbow of colors of your choice. There are some colorful presets that you can choose from in the gradient palette, or create your own. Set the layer’s Fill down to 25%. Then set the layer’s blending mode to Color. Tip: When you set the blending mode to color it makes it so the layer only affects the color of everything below it, while leaving the lightness/darkness alone. Step 3 Finally make another Gradient Adjustment Layer above the previous two. This one will be a radial gradient. Set this one up so that the only 2 colors in the gradient are black and then make the transparency go from 100% at one end and 0% at the other end. If you see that black is covering the center of the image, check the Reverse box. Then make it so the black goes around the edges of the canvas. Set the layer opacity to 65%. I moved the transparency handles around a little to get the exact effect that I wanted. Step 4 Now lets begin with the text treatment. Hit (T) for the type tool, and make a (single click) on the canvas. Then type your letter, in my case a P. Then grab the Move tool and (Hit CMD+T) and transform the letter, adjust it until it’s the size that you want it. Hit (T) again for the type tool, and if it’s not already, make the letter black by clicking the text color box in the property bar. Set the letter layer’s blending mode to Screen. The letter will disappear. Step 5 (Double click) to the right of the letter layer’s name in the layer palette to bring up the layer styles palette. Put an Outer Glow and a Stroke on the layer with the exact settings that you see below. You will see a very faint image of the letter now. Let’s use this first letter as a starting point for all the text in the image. Once we layer several different letters on top of each other, our effect will come to life. Step 6 Duplicate the letter layer by dragging it down to the New Layer button at the bottom of the layer palette. Select the type tool (T) and then change the font on the new layer. If the new font doesn’t line up how you want to hit (CMD+T) to free transform the new letter. Make sure that you always line up the baseline of the letters. You can move the anchor point to the base line when you are transforming to keep it lined up correctly. Now do this step 20 times, each time using a different font. I chose to use all different fonts that have serifs. You can use all fonts that are sans-serif if you like, but I wouldn’t mix the two. Step 7 Select all the text layers that you have. Then hit (CMD+G) to group them. With the group selected in the layer palette, hit (V) for the move tool. Then (while holding ALT), click and drag on the letters on the canvas to duplicate them. Drag them to the right where you want the next letter to be. Now there should be 2 groups of text in the layer palette. Turn off all the letter layers in the new group (except the bottom one) by clicking in the little ‘eye’ icon next to each one. Now select the text tool (T), and highlight the single letter. Then change it to the next letter that you want, in my case an S. Finally, turn the S layer off. Then turn on the next one and do the same. Repeat this until all the letters in your new group are changed. Turn all the layers back on. Repeat this step for each new letter you need. Step 8 Select the elliptical marquee tool and make a very thin ellipse at the base of your letters. Then Feather the selection about 20px. Enter quickmask mode (Q). Then go to Filter>Blur>Motion Blur. Make the angle 0 and the length 700px and hit OK. This gives us a nice fade out to the left and right sides. Then exit quickmask mode (Q). Now make a curves adjustment layer above the gradients, but below the letter groups. Then apply a curve that looks like the one below. This just gives our letters something to sit on. Step 9 Make a new document that is 300px by 300px. Double click on the background layer to make it an active layer. (Double click) to the right of the layer name to open the layer styles palette. Apply a color overlay to make the layer black. Then add an inner stroke that is white to make a border. You can see my settings below. Go to Layer>Flatten Image to flatten the image. Hit CMD+A to select all and then go Edit>Define Pattern. Step 10 Go back to your other document. Make a new blank layer just above your curves layer by hitting the New Layer button at the bottom of the layer palette. Not go to Edit>Fill and select Pattern for the Contents. Then select your black box that should be at the end of the list, and hit OK. Now Hit (CMD+T) to transform the layer so that it fits in the foreground space. Then (right/control+click) anywhere in the transform box and select perspective. Drag the bottom right handle way out so you get a nice perspective on the pattern layer. Set the layer’s blending mode to screen and the opacity to 15%. Step 11 There is one last step to add a finishing touch. Select the type layers and duplicate them by dragging them down to the New Layer button. With the new groups selected hit (CMD+T) then (right/control+click) in the transform box and select Flip Vertical. Move them down so they look like a reflection. With all the reflection groups selected hit (CMD+G) to put them into another group. Set that group’s opacity to 25%. Add a mask to the group by clicking on the Add Layer Mask button at the bottom of the layer palette. With the mask selected hit (G) for the gradient tool and apply a linear gradient from black to white, so the reflection fades out as it goes down to the edge of the image. Conclusion This tutorial covered some simple steps and effects to achieve stylish results. The final image is below. If there are any questions, put them in the comments section. I will answer them as soon as I can. I hope you enjoy this tut! Credits by Kyle Pero

Ok today we do several ways to smooth skin in Photoshop. All to often, however, skin can appear too smooth, fake, and synthetic. Today I will demonstrate a straightforward technique to help you smooth skin fairly quickly while preserving the texture of the pores. Let’s get started! Step 1 First, open your image and duplicate your background layer. Simply drag the layer onto the new layer icon in the bottom right of the layer palette. Now set the blending mode of this newly created layer to "Vivid Light." Step 2 Now, let’s invert this layer. Do this by pressing Cmd + I or Image > Adjustments > Invert. Then, apply a Gaussian Blur by selecting Filter > Blur > Gaussian Blur. Applying a blur filter to an inverted picture will make it look shaper. Use the slider until you can see the pores on her face. Step 3 Now let smooth the skin! Go to Filter > Other >High Pass. Move the slider until you are happy with the smoothing. You may notice some ghosting and other weird stuff around the eyes – just ignore it for now. Concentrate on the cheeks, forehead and nose. Step 4 Almost done! Create a new mask for the layer and fill it with black to hide the image. Switch your color to white, select the mask and start drawing on the skin with a soft brush. Start at the cheeks, move over to the forehead, the nose and stop on the chin. If the effect is too strong for your liking, just lover the opacity of the brush and you’re good to go! Final Image We’re finished! I hope that you learned a few new techniques here. If you have a different approach, let me know in the comments! By Rainer Hietsch

Ok in this tutorial we’ll be creating a smoky night effect on text to give it an eerie supernatural sort of feel. It’s a good exercise in using the Wave distortion filter. Step 1 The first thing we need for our image is a background. We’re going to use a quick star-sky background. There are lots of tutorials around for this effect, and it’s actually a simple two-step process: clouds + noise. So on a new blank canvas, start by choosing a dark blue color – #18323a – and black and then go to Filter > Render > Clouds. Step 2 Now create a new layer, fill it with black, and go to Filter > Noise > Add Noise and use values roughly as shown below. Step 3 Now that is way too much noise, so go to Image > Adjustment > Levels (or Ctrl+L) and bring those sliders together until you see most of the ‘stars’ vanish as shown. Step 4 Now set the stars layer’s blending mode to Screen so that the black vanishes and just the stars remain. It’s still a bit too even though, so add a Layer Mask to the layer, and with a large fat brush just mask out blobs so that it seems a little less even. See the screenshot below to see the layer mask I added… Step 5 In this step, I added a radial gradient layer going from the white in the center to black at the edges and set the layer to Overlay and 45% Opacity. The effect is just to darken the edges and it’s not an essential step. In any case you should have something like this image shown below. Step 6 Now we add our text. I’ve used a font called Cuez_Ver6 which looks suitably strange. If you go to a free font site and look under sci-fi or the like, you’ll doubtless find something similar. Actually it’s quite unreadable really (especially the r), but who cares, it looks cool! Step 7 Next we’re going to add some layer styles. You can get a sample PSD file at the end of this tutorial, but because we’re switching to a pay system for the samples, I’ll go through the settings in case you don’t want to buy the file. First I’ve given the text a Color Overlay of straight black (#000000). Then because the basis of this text effect is a creepy light, I added inner glows. First an Inner Glow as shown below, and then an Inner Shadow with color #54a4ff, blend mode Screen, distance 1, size 2, angle -90', and everything else default. Step 8 Next we use a textured Bevel and Emboss to give the style some unevenness. You can see the Bevel settings below. The Texture I added is just one of the standard ones that comes with Photoshop that looks like bubbles. And I set the Depth to -79. As you can see below, this makes the inner glow look a lot more uneven. Step 9 Finally I added a Drop Shadow and Outer Glow, both set using Screen and the color #008ac5. I used both so that I could make one of them a small glow and one a really spread out glow, so the distances were 10px and 100px. Step 10 Ok, so here’s our text with the Layer Style applied. It’s off to a good start, but you can only do so much with Layer Styles, so now we do some good ol’ manual effects. Step 11 First of all, duplicate the text, right-click the layer, and remove the layer styles. Then change the color of the text to a fluorescent blue (#5cdbff). Then press the up arrow once to move it one pixel up. This will give a sort of glow effect as shown below. Step 12 Ok, this next step is the key step in this tutorial. Duplicate the text layer with the fluoro blue color. Then go to Filter > Distort > Wave. You can use mostly the default settings, except where it has Scale. I’ve set this to just 10% and 10%. This will distort the text, but only a little bit. If you leave it at 100% the effect is pretty full-on! (Note: In the image below, I moved the text down so that it would be clear that I was applying the wave filter to it.) Step 13 After you have distorted text, go to Filter > Blur > Gaussian Blur and use a value of 4px. Then set the Opacity to 20%. In the screenshot below, I’ve switched off the main text so that you can see the distorted text. Step 14 Now hold down Ctrl and click on that text layer to select it’s pixels and then go to Select > Modify > Contract and use a value of 5px. Then press Shift+Ctrl+I to invert the selection and hit Delete. This should leave a thin wispy looking remnant of your text. Now switch on the main text layer, and it should look like a tiny bit of smoke coming off the letters. Step 15 Now duplicate that layer and go to Filter > Distort > Wave and distort this copy even more. Now repeat this step a couple of times and vary what you do with the wave. So you might want to press Randomize sometimes, or sometimes distort the copy a few times. Also I used a mix of blending modes on the different copies of the smoke. Two of them I had no blending mode set, two of them I used Overlay, and for another two I used Hard Light. Also it’s a good idea to mix up whether they are behind or in front of the text. Remember you want the effect to look like wisps of smoke coming off the letters. Step 16 Now that we have our small smoke sorted out, it’s time to add some bigger wisps. So again duplicate the fluoro blue text layer. Step 17 We now apply another Wave distortion, but this time where it has Scale, set the horizontal to 5% and the vertical to 100%. This will make the shapes become very elongated as shown. Once you’ve applied the wave, just repeatedly hit Ctrl+F to keep doing it over and over again until the text has been completely distorted into long wispy shapes. Step 18 Once you have a good smoky-looking effect, set the layer blending mode to Hard Light and you should have something similar to the image shown below. Step 19 Now duplicate that last layer and run a Gaussian Blur by going to Filter > Render > Gaussian Blur with a value of 4px. This will make our layer look a little softer. After that, get a large soft eraser brush and just brush away some of the bits at the bottom and top so that it fades off as it approaches the edges. You may also want to repeat these last couple of steps to add more wisps. Step 20 Here I’ve removed the bottom of those wisps and added a few more subtle copies. Also I added some extra type above the main text just to make it look a bit cooler. Step 21 Next I moved one or two of the wispy layers in front of the text so that it looks like the smoke is trailing over the letters. In particular look at the E in super to see what I mean. Step 22 Finally, to give it a more eerie feel I added a layer above all the others and with a large brush painted some green on top, then set the layer blending mode to Color to make it so that the image is a blue-green coloring. And we’re done! One slick, smoky effect! Credits by Collis
