Speeding text with flames

5) Go to “Layer” -> “Layer Style” -> “Blending Mode” and apply a “Colour Overlay” and an “Outer Glow” like in the images shown below.

6) Select the top Text layer and change the color to your liking. I chose a bright orange color and then merge the layers.

7) Finally, if you like apply a motion blur effect by going to “Filter” -> “Blur” -> “Motion Blur”

    i couldnt get this to work i dont know what im doing wrong… when i aplied the wind effect ot the text it didnt extend it beyond the text… plz help me.

  10. Dimitris Says:

    Hi, make sure that your text is white and it will extend. You can change the text color later by applying a color overlay style. I hope that helps.
