@LittleTommyt1 It's in the Font Panel, but it's kinda hard to find. You have to make that panel bigger and it'll appear in the top row, and then you can turn off the shadows there.

Do you know how to get the shadow OFF of all my text? There must be a selection somewhere because all of my text has a shadow and I don't know how to get that off.

thanks

@ThePixelmator Yes, I knew that. I thought that you were saying that they were different...

@PixelCreativity That letterpress was inner shadow? Letterpress makes the text look like its been pressed into the background

[PixelCreativity]

@2800drengen Oh, I thought that it all meant the same thing...

Haha!

@PixelCreativity Inner shadow like in the PS Icon tut?

[PixelCreativity]

@PixelCreativity For example, while I was doing some inner shadow text for my new channel layout (you should check it out by the way - it is really cool), I did it completely different to many other tutorials showing how to! There are often many different ways to reach a specific goal sometimes!

[PixelCreativity]

@2800drengen Definitely a good thing! It just shows different styles between different people! Like the creativity in people...

You see, when I think of doing an inner-shadow effect, I think of a completely different technique. And I'll probably do a tutorial next week showing my way of doing it!

[2800drengen]

@PixelCreativity Is that good or bad?

[PixelCreativity]

There are so many different ways of doing this technique, it's interesting seeing your way of doing it!
