Add Radial Gradient in Text
This is a tip good for poster art. Add a radial gradient in bold text to spice things up. If you’re tired of using borders and bevels, try this.
1. Start off with your text on canvas however you want. Choose a very bold font, I used Impact as it is most common.
2. Select the text and click the Fill Color square, and click Fill Options. Choose gradient instead of the default solid. Then choose Radial among the types of gradients.
3. Choose your colors, preferably darker on the edges and bright on the center.
The result is a simple beautification of your headline or title.
4. And optionally, create a rectangle and fill with another radial gradient.
