Hi there! It's kerozeo here. A bunch of you guys have asked how to do the text on the covers I made for graphic silly so I thought I would do a small tutorial on it. There's not much to it but I'll have screen shots and all.
Now just a warning, I do use Photoshop and the way I did it here is a Photoshop/gimp/Pixlr editor way of doing it, for mobile apps I don't know how to do this :).

So what you want to do is open up a new file, it can be anything depending on what your making, but a FYI a Wattpad cover is 512x800
Type out your text. In this example and the graphic silly covers I used the font beon.
Then double click on your text layer so you see this menu shown below.

This is the the fx editing menu. Now firstly click on outer glow that is on the left. You'll see the menu in the next screen shot.

So you just want to make sure your settings look like mine. Like changing your glow color to red and making the size larger ect, it doesn't have to be fully like me. Do whatever fits your graphic.
Now go the satin menu.

A very important thing to do when at this menu is change the color to white instead of black of the satin, you do that by clicking on the box next to opacity. Also make sure to change the box that will originally say multiply to screen. Other than that just make sure everything you see here looks the same for you :).
So if you now press the okay button at the right of the menu you'll see your text now looks like this

You can do this with any color of text, doesn't matter. Just make sure to edit your outer glow to match that new color :D
