Hi : Tutorial is amazing im new in photoshop world but i have one question,is text png? Because need it for my logo :) Thanks

[ChChCheckItsClan]

@ItzzMarija I'm not sure I understand your question?

[omrik22]

hey i have a questoin... how do you zoom in in the canvas, and how to you increase and decrease the brush size? (what keys do I have to press)

[ChChCheckItsClan]

@omrik22 If you go to your General Preferences (Ctrl+K / Cmd+K) you can turn on a feature called "zoom with scroll wheel" which will let you zoom in and out using the scroll wheel on your mouse. That, or you can use the zoom tool (Z). To increase/decrease your brush size, just use the bracket keys [ and ]

Hope this helps! =)

@omrik22 You should not even have Photoshop if your asking that stupid of questions!

[ChChCheckItsClan]

@T40Designs I bet you think you're a really cool guy, talking trash like that. But guess what? Nobody cares about you. If I could compare the importance of your comments to anything I wanted, I'd compare them to the size of your wiener. Very small.

THX for this tutorial. I used it and i have now a great textlogo for my online game clan.

[Shaddaigraphics]

this tutorial was just what i needed. Three thumbs up.

[Shaddaigraphics]

Oah. Found it.

[Shaddaigraphics]

I'd like to help but your question seems unclear. 

[Shaddaigraphics]

First of all make sure the layer you desire to mask is selected before clicking the new layer mask button.

[Shaddaigraphics]

HEY guys. Need the link for the "fire by shades of gray jpeg" used to amplify the flame effect in this tut. Kinda nu in youtube,( i now that sounds lame to y'all) but please i need you help. Thanks.

[Shaddaigraphics]

hey can you give me the link for the flame by shades of grey jpeg he uses in this tutorial? can't fin it. Thanks in advance.

Question: Why is it when you hit "create layer mask" It shows a dynamic mask next to the layer? Mine only shows the "create layer mask" icon.
