One of my forum members asked me how I make names with images in them

so here is how I make them.  There are probably a dozen different ways to do 

this but this is just one way that i know and find easiest.

Open blank canvas 700 x 700 

floodfill white

text tool

use a blocky font

I am using GramophoneNF

size 120, color black

create as vector

convert to raster

select all, float, defloat

choose two colors from your tube(s)

make a fore/back gradient

linear, angle 45, repeats 4

new raster layer

floodfill with your gradient

copy your tube(s)

paste as new layer(s)

resize & position to your liking

selections invert

hit delete on each tube layer

merge all tube layers together

change blend mode to lumincance

duplicate

adjust blur, gaussian blur 8

change blend mode to screen (or whatever you like)

selections expand by 2

new raster layer

floodfill with background colour

add noise, 100, uniform & monochrome checked
drag this layer below your gradient layer

selections contract by 2

new raster layer

drag this layer to the top of your layer palette

effects, eye candy 5 Impact, glass

make noise layer active

add dropshadow 2,5,50,8,black

add name and copyright information 

delete white background layer

and black name layer

merge visible

crop and save as png
