  1. My favorite is a highlighted effect type which gives a stronger emphasis and style to a design. You can use this technique for short text like title, quotation, and captions in your layout design to give them more style and emphasis.

  2. I found the text wrapping effect to be the most interesting as the other effects are pretty normal/easy.

  4. I like typing on a tilt because it give it a wild, crazy, zany feel that you have when you first discover Photoshop(Sarcasm) . Then again adding filters is kinda cool.

  5. I personally like the text wrap effect, the reason being is that it looks like it would be cool to have in a book, if done write (get it) you can be telling two stories at the same time. Also the bevel and emboss kind of effect seems pretty neat for when you make a sign

  6. I really love the text wrap effect as well. After taking my Indesign class last semester I feel in love with that effect because it gives a depth within the article. I have seen numerous magazine layouts that use this because it gives it a more modern feel to it.
