How to Create a Neon Text Style in Photoshop

Creating a neon text style in Photoshop can be a fun and creative way to add some visual interest to your designs. In this article, we will show you how to create a neon effect using layer effects and selection tools.

To start, open the image you want to apply the effects to in Photoshop. If you're new to Photoshop, don't worry - we'll walk you through each step of the process.

The first step is to separate your text or object from its background. In this example, we will be using a picture of Superman. You can download the image from .

To select Superman, use the magic wand tool and then tidy up any stray pixels using the quick mask. Once you've made your selection, hit Ctrl + J (Windows) or Cmd + J (Mac) to add your selection to a new layer.

With Superman on his own layer, we can start applying the neon effect. To do this, use the 'Layer Styles' panel and select the 'Neon Glow' option. You can adjust the settings to customize the look of the neon effect.

Once you're happy with the settings, click OK to apply the effect. Your image should now have a vibrant neon glow around Superman.

That's it! With these simple steps, you can create a neon text style in Photoshop. This method works perfectly well even for beginners, and is a great way to add some visual interest to your designs.
