Sotos Posted October 21, 2010 Report Share Posted October 21, 2010 Well, in Gimp, when I try to apply a gradient on text, it always comes out pixelly, no matter what the text size is... What can I do? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LiAM Posted October 22, 2010 Report Share Posted October 22, 2010 Blur or make the text slightly smaller. It's just the font file is very HQ and so it doesn't fade outwards. If you look at curved shaped on computers, the pixels fade into grey-white and vice versa, a bit of blurring at the sides will fix. And for the shadow, you can replicate the layer, paint the whole thing black, blur it a lot and then move it around. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LiAM Posted October 21, 2010 Report Share Posted October 21, 2010 You want the text to be the colour of the Gradient? I.e. the gradient becomes the text? Text layer, above that, gradient layer > screen / multiply it depending on the colour of the original text. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sotos Posted October 22, 2010 Author Report Share Posted October 22, 2010 No, I mean like the following example... (I know the shadow is cut off, but that's another problem...[img]http://forum.yugiohcardmaker.net/public/style_emoticons/default/dry.gif[/img]) You can see the pixels in the result clearly...[spoiler=Logo][img]http://b.imagehost.org/0193/1_74.png[/img][/spoiler] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
