Photoshop Quick Tips #2 - Neon Effect with Animation

December 23, 2008 from abduzeedo's blog

Back in July I wrote a tutorial showing how to create the effect I use on Abduzeedo's logo, a very subtle light effect, sort of neon style. The tutorial is the Shining Neon Text Effect in Adobe Photoshop if you want to check it out. Also I decided to mix it a bit with the animation features that we have now in Photoshop.

Even though the effect was simple a lot of people complained that got stuck on some steps or their result was not the same, because of that, I decided to do a video showing how to create the same effect.

The wallpaper of this week is a very cool illustration created by Anna Anjos, a graphic designer and illustrator from São Paulo, Brazil. Anna started very young creating the internal drawings of her mother's book. Since her early days she preferred pencils and papers than conventional toys. Her first work was at age 10 where she had the opportunity to create the internal drawings of her mother's book. We highly recommend that you check out Anna Anjos' website

 Book Suggestion - Poke the Box
The book of this week is Poke the Box. Written by Seth Godin, Poke the Box is very inspiring and motivating about initiating and shipping. It makes you think about so many things and makes you want to make things happen. If you're stuck at the starting line, you don't need more time or permission. You don’t need to wait for a boss’s okay or to be told to push the button; you just need to poke.
