Hello all today we are going to make a Icy text effect in adobe photoshop:

First make a canvas ( I used 400 x 200 px ) and fill it with black:

Second we need to type in our text ( I used “Icy” with Ariel Black at 72pt ):

Now rasterize the text layer by right clicking the layer and click Rasterize Type:

Right click the Icy layer and click Merge down:

Goto Filter > Pixelate > Crystallize:

Enter 3 as the Cell Size:

Now goto Filter > Blur > Gaussian Blur:

Enter 1 pixel and click ok:

Now goto Image > Rotate Canvas > 90 CW:

Goto Filter > Stylize > Wind:

Make sure From the Right is ticked and click ok:

Now goto Image > Rotate Canvas > 90 CCW:

Then Image > Adjustments > Hue/Saturation:

Enter Hue: 215 Saturation: 50 Lightness: 0 and make sure Colorize is checked:

And here is your final result:

Thanks for looking at this tutorial and hope you learned from this.

Aren't you supposed to... credit the person who posted it originally :/

*looks at own sig* I know for a fact I read that somewhere else...

My guess at the original poster : Tutorial - Freezing Ice Text Effect | TutorialDesk

There are millions of rips across the web... Didn't know what link to use when I posted it...

From what I understand, when posting something from anywhere no matter what and not crediting if its not original or its a "RIP"

You can search for 'Ice text' ' Photoshop Tutorial' and it will come up with thousands of this guide and thousands of other variations. I thought people could do that.

A rip is when you take credits, which I didn't do.
