I love this one. This was easy to do and I immediately thought of jelly beans.

That is a great job ek22. I love it...how did you get text all different colors? That isn't a gradient is it?

No, molly, I cut and pasted the letters to separate layers and filled them in different colors. Ran the tut on each individually and then arranged them, dropped shadows under them and merged them all together into a pile of jelly beans.

Wow, that is a lot of work. Anyway, thanks.

Nah, it's not too bad. Once you get in the swing of things it goes pretty fast.

just going through the whole tute for each letter is large, for me :teeth

Woo Hoo, I did one but I cheated by using Graechan's script for each letter.

So you know what happened to the 'J' before you ate it. It's been licked.

Hello, I'm stuck on the fill with white?

Is this correct? When I fill with white, nothing happens?

When in the Channels Dialog, if you fill the channel with white.
It will appear as though nothing has happened.
You need to select a particular layer within the image to fill with white.
Instead of filling the channel with white.
