Letterpress effect in GIMP
Submitted by sign on Fri, 09/11/2009 - 21:08.
Have seen loads of tutorials for photoshop how to make a letterpress effect as seen above but non of them for GIMP (http://gimp.org). It is a trendy effect these times on the web and yes, it is fairly easy to create one.
Prepare your gimp canvas
Start with a new clean canvas (Files -> New or Ctrl+N), lets say 640px width and 480px height.
Add a background
Choose a gradient tool and use these colours: #448ccb (top) and #003471 (bottom) to create a gradient.
Add some text
Now select a text tool and add some text. Choose a font you like but I recommend to use a bold text. Thin font won't work that well. Color of the font #003471.
Inner gradient
Right click on the layer with the text and choose "Text to selection".
Add a new layer.
Select a gradient tool and use this colour: #0f233a. Use gradient FG to Transparent and make the gradient from bottom of the text somewhere to the middle.
White Drop Shadow
Select Filters > Light and Shadow > Drop Shadow.
Set Offset X, Offset Y and Blur radius to 1. Colour white. Opacity 20.0.
Inner Shadow
Select from top navigation Select > Invert
Then Filters > Light and Shadow > Drop Shadow
Set Offset X and Offset Y to 1. Blur radius to 6. Colour black. Opacity 100.0.
Result
And this is what we ended up with. Have a play with values of shadows, etc...

Very alluring case about this good post, but still this confusion is to complicate to discuss.That is why we have controlled to create a custom writing service to help driving students. They can buy term paper that is custom and made by expert , buy an essay
or even buy research paper. But when customers use this kind of assistance – an ethical question is raised: Is it ok to use these kinds of services? Is it ok to use them, and will you be punished for using them.
Thanks
