Glow trace border two
How to make a single pixel single light glow trace border.
1.start w/ your sig.
2.go to image>image size and make the width 2 pixels smaller. Remember the height. (you can do more than two pixels for a larger border.)
3.now go images>canvas size and make the height and width 2 pixels larger each.
4.now make another layer behind your sig and fill it so that it’s black.
5.now make another layer between the black layer and the sig and use the fairy dust to make one spot and color it yellow# (or any other light color, you can always change the color w/ color overlay) an move it to the top right hand corner. (you can also use a regular brush with outer glow and blur.) (so that you could see where the dot went, I made the sig layer invisible.)
6.now press ctrl shift m to go to image ready, go to the animation window and duplicate the layer three times, each time moving the dot to another corner. (down, right, up or right, down, left.)
7.now tween them according to length (mine was 400x130 and I used 15 slides and 10 slides.) tween the last slide to the first slide.
