Embossing Examples


Embossing your banner can have a variety of effects. Embossing uses the difference in color between the background color and the foreground color in your banner. The result is an outline of the borders. If you blur your banner, then use emboss, there will be a "softer" edge to detect and you can create interesting effects by using edge detect and blur.

This example uses Advanced Algorithm 1 set to Emboss.

The jaggies may be eliminated by applying Blur. This example uses Advanced Algorithm 1 with Emboss and Advanced Algorithm 2 with Blur 5%.

This example uses Advanced Algorithm 1 Blur 50% to "round" the text out, and Advanced Algorithm 2 set to Emboss to outline the text. Note the difference between this and the first example.

You can get a good button effect, with raised edges around the outer border to make your banner 3-D. Use Advanced Algorithm 1 set to Emboss and Advanced Algorithm 2 set to Raise 2.

Emboss works with different colors.

These examples used Background set to Black and different foreground colors.

This example uses Background set to White and Foreground set to Black. Comparing this example with the first one, you will notice one difference; the 'highlight' and 'shadow' are switched.

These example use Background set to White and Foreground set to various colors.
