1. Make a new file in Photoshop with black backgournd and type some white text on it, use whichever font you like,I used BrokeBoy , rasterize your layer.
2. Duplicate your text layer, go to Filter>Blur>Guassian Blur , enter 7-10 (may very upon the text size) for the Blur value, click OK. Duplicate your blurred layer and merged the two blurred layers together --name your Glowing layer " Glow ".
Now press Ctrl+U to adjust Hue/Saturation . Check the color box and adjust the Hue/Saturation in this way:
- Saturation : 100
- Lightness : -30
- Hue : 50
3. Create a new layer on top of all your other layers, name it " Dodge ".Select the gradient tool , set it to radial.
Make sure the foreground color is black and background is white , drag the gradient tool as illustrated -- from center to the right top corner.
4.Set your " Dodge " layer's mode to " Color Dodge " You will end up with what I call the " dodge-glow effect ".
Tip : You can also delete and add the " dodge glow effect " by using a big, soft airbrush tool. Use black airbrush tool to delete the " dodge glow effect " and white airbrush to add it. Make sure your " Dodge " layer is active when you do this.
5. Select your " Glow " layer. Press Ctrl+U to adjust Hue/Saturation , set Hue to -24, leave everything else at 0 , click OK.
6. Select your original white text layer, go to Filter>Blur>Guassian Blur, enter 1.8 for the value, click OK.
7. Make a new layer on top of all the others. Name this layer " Spice Up ". Use a soft, red airbrush tool to paint in some of the areas of your text.
8. Set your "Spice Up" layer's mode to " Color Dodge ". Now play around with the hue/saturation of your " Spice Up " layer to see different results.
Tip : You may also adjust your " Glow " layer hue/saturation and see how it flows with your " Spice Up ". Different color combinations will yield very different results.
9. Optional Step Duplicate your " Glow " layer. Go to Filter>Distort>Displace , leave the values default and then navigate to the "PS-stuff distortion map.psd " ( download the displacement map) if you don't have it. Move this layer around to achieve different results.
