4-Minute Photoshop Pro Tips | Distressed Text Edges

[@agis7172]

Best tutorials I've seen in my 12 years on YT experience!

[@Texturelabs]

That's awesome, thank you for the kind words!

[@NickPritchett]

Dude, no joke! I've tried many times to find tutorials on how to make text look more vintage/raw/distressed/etc and this is the first one I've found that I think is relevant and high quality. Well done!

[@Melancholic_Static]

If anyone reading this is having trouble with the crystallize filter seemingly not working, here is what fixed it for me (and it's stupidly simple) on the Colour Fill layer, it seems the colour (on the left of the layer) is selected by default, but you have to click on the actual Layer Mask (right) and then try it and it should work.

thank you!

[@starman1294]

How do I do this on the web app?

[@nickelart123]

you saved my life! Forgot about that!

[@cxbx09]

Highest quality tutorials ever. Truly pro techniques. Thank you!

[@Texturelabs]

That's very kind, thank you!

[@jrod291]

How am I just finding your channel????? Amazing

[@IanJones942]

Your enthusiasm for the crystallize filter is contagious! I love it!

[@Flysonfame]

Such a simple yet infinitely useful technique. I already can imagine so many ways to play of this concept utilizing many other filter settings. Thank You.

[@Texturelabs]

Nice, ya that's 100% the idea!

[@jessemkahn]

what an amazing use of a previously seemingly pointless filter!!!

[@triptee3449]

i'm going crazy how does people even figure this things out? best channel ever

[@MegPorterArt]

I learned like 5 things in one video, this was AMAZING!! It may be three years old but this is incredibly helpful, thank you so much!

[@Kim-learns-to-fly]

[@tpkp8442]

Your Creations are just wow✨

[@misjavanlaatum]

Wow. I've been using PS for years and years, but neither that fade nor the "select and mask" options I've ever used. Great tutorial!

[@knowdiff]

Brady, you are amazing, Amazing, AMAZING! Thank you for making impossible possible for me.

[@CraigHoward]

I am so glad I found you, I can not tell you how valuable this kind of stuff is for people who create paper replicas / props / faux documents for screen or collection! This is gold dust!! 😍 immediate sub

[@GreenNoize]

I searched a lot for a tutorial about ink edges and wet page effect and this gave me the best results by far. Just used it for the objects of a videogame I'm working on! Gold! Thanks!

[@marshallhartlen1596]

The possibilities are literally endless, thank you so much!

[@Garstor]

This was awesome! Thank you for the big reminder that filters can be used on masks. It is easy to forget that sometimes and you miss out on spectacular effects like this.

[@mira-graphics]

You are just AWESOME sir.

[@judithangerman]

Great video!!! Thank you!

[@DonnyJ]

Incredible. Really helpful bro!

[@Texturelabs]

Awesome glad to hear that!

[@nateoski3635]

Thanks again Brady for creating accessible tutorials that are bite sized and digestible. Now, I understand the importance of using shift+F5 or fade after you applied the crystal filter or any other filter. Obviously, there are many ways to get a similar affect. This is quick and easy. Thank-you for the great content.

[@alphacomputersolutions2314]

Exactly what i was looking for

[@GierlangBhaktiPutra]

Concise and practical tips. Really helpful!

[@LouiseAthena]

amazing tutorial !

[@srdj]

Thanks a million!

[@racerschin]

*better on a smart object for live fonts.* copy smart object 3 times and apply the crystalize(s), you can then control it all independently. add some blending options for that aged look. instead of the select and mask, prefer blur and levels/sharpen afterwards. live templates are 90% of the times better.

[@AA-hg7xq]

I don't get this to work. Clearer steps please. Thank you.

[@jessiemartin8967]

Using Windows: Followed your steps exactly, when I went to apply the filter, it came up with a pop up saying I need to “rasterize” or “convert to smart object” to continue. I tried both options, deciding to go with smart object. Once I applied the filter, at 5pixels, nothing happened… help!!!

[@Granada263]

so cool

[@Thomas-Hodapp]

So simple and yet so effective!😀

[@gaybowserballer]

[@westsidestudioimages]

really nice tutorial. I am going to use it with a font like Courier to simulate an old typewritten letter.

[@vycebloom7989]

that was insane THANK YOU

[@rushi_artworks]

Really Cool and simple. Thanks

[@TheQuestionTheAnswer]

Thank you so much for this! I actually took a bit of a left turn and used the Dissolve instead when fading the Crystallise filter, and it was pretty much perfect for what I was looking to do.

[@Texturelabs]

Ah that's great... Best case scenario for me is if someone can take a technique like this and adapt it into something completely different for their work!

[@user-bi5le4ew5r]

this was so cool, absolutely loved it!! thank you so much for your tutorials!
