Hello everyone. First of all, I apologize for my english. I hope this is right forum section. I am Photoshop beginer and amateur. I dont use photoshop very often so please, take my question easy.
I have photoshop CS4.
Introducing my problem. I was trying to make a logo for music band. I didnt have any exact idea i just tried what i could do.
First of all i made this base text in mspaint ( i know its lame but nevermind )
Then i want to spice it up in some way... I launched photoshop and i decided to try some filters. Neon glow was interesting for me. After applying neon glow i had this result.
Then i made a negative and result was good for me. I tried it with different colours. This one I did with R - 0 G - 255 B - 255 and after negative it have red "aura" - nice
Well now, whats the problem. I found this way how to do this "logo" but then i wanted to do better "base text" and than apply this filter.
I did it exactly same way.
Base text made in mspaint, then -> PS -> filter -> artistic -> neon glow and i put there same values, but now the picture after filter, after same way, looks different. Even with whatever values it works just differently. I dont know why... and i dont know how to fix it. I even tried to put my original enrage into photoshop but now even this original "base" from ms paint have different output after filter. I didnt use anything else, only that filter. I tried to do a default PS config (ctrl + shift + alt at launching) but this filter is still working this different way, which is bad for me.
examples
As you can see, the text (letters) have still solid edges and you can only change "neon lights" which are outside or inside the text. ( its also adds some white light which is unwanted ) But when i applied this filter with same way first time, its output was different, the filter break these solid edges.
I tried to find what else could affect working of filter, I also asked my friends for advice, but no one could help me. They told me that filter is always same, only the colours changes it but i see that it is not.
I would be very grateful if anyone could help me with this issue.
