Speed Text

1. Open a new document, make the background black and type your letters in white. Now press CTRL+E to reduce the layers to the background.



2. Now go filters-blur-gaussian and set it between 0,8 an 1,5.
Next we need filters-stylize-solarize.
Then use image-adjust-auto channels.



3. Now go filters-disort-polar coordinates and choose the lower -polar to rectangular- radio button.



4. Now go to image-rotate canvas-90°CCW.

Next we apply filters-stylize-wind-from left.



5. Now go to image-rotate canvas 90°CW.
Now go again filters-disort-polar coordinates and this time choose the upper -rectangular to polar- radio button.
Looks like speedy text - doesn’t it?



6. Go to image-adjust-hue/satursation check the “colorize” box if you want any colour in it.

Looks great on bigger images/higher resolutions….
