In honor of the now closed Pacific Blue restaurant, once located in beautiful downtown Glen
Ellyn, Illinois, we present the following "neon sign" type tutorial. Create a new image and fill with white.
Next, Filter > Render > Clouds. Press Cntrl + U and adjust the Hue/Saturation settings as follows: Hue: 0,
Saturation: 50 and Lightness: -50. | |
Go to Filter > Texture > Texturizer and use following settings: Texture > Brick, Scaling >
200%, Relief > 10 and Light Direction from the Top Left.
| |
Select white as the font color and type "Pacific Blue" (or some other fine
restaurant name). Layer > Rasterize Layer comes next. | |
Create a new layer (Layer > New Layer). Cntrl + click on the original text layer. Now,
with the text selected, right click and choose Stroke at a setting of 2. Delete the text
layer. | |
Layer Style > Outer Glow, Blend Mode > Screen, Opacity > 90%, Color > #057ffc, Spread >
15%, Size > 62 pixels. | |
Layer Style > Color Overlay, Blend Mode > Normal, Color > #ffffbe and Opacity
at 100%. | |

The final result---almost back in business! | |
