You might remember the original chrome text tutorial from here at PhotoshopCAFE. It was one of the very first Photoshop chrome tutorials on the web, and oh boy was it copied everywhere. I have just re-written the entire tutorial to update it for modern times. Not only is the result cleaner now, the steps take advantage of features that have been addied in the the more than 10 years since I wrote the original tutorial, I hope you enjoy this updated tutorial as much as you did the original.

Adobe and Google are working together to host a new streaming version of Photoshop that runs directly in Chrome. Xbox one smartglass app for windows 8. We think this is an interesting experiment and another example of the how Creative Cloud is giving us an opportunity to re-think how customers interact with our software in new environments. There are two ways in which you can connect your Facebook, Google, or Apple account to your existing Adobe account: If your social account email ID is same as your Adobe ID; If your social account email ID is different from your Adobe.

Adobe project brings Photoshop to Chrome, Chrome OS The Creative Cloud now involves some actual cloud computing with a version of Adobe's flagship that runs in Google's browser and its. Photoshop Express Editor is available as a web tool, desktop program and smartphone app. The web editor is compatible with Google Chrome, Safari, Mozilla Firefox and Microsoft Edge - just make sure.

Step 1

Create your type layer, or import your shape that you want to turn into shiny chrome Render type: right click/mac Cmd click the name on the layer and select 'rasterize type'. This converts your text to an object, so you can apply all the filters to it.

(NOTE: If you are going for a cleaner look and are going to skip the plastic wrap step, you won't need to rasterize the type. Plastic wrap works as a Smart Filter, but you can't get the correct result with the gradient without rasterizing the type.)

Step 2

select a dark gray for your foreground color and a light gray for your background.

Step 3

Select the gradient tool (Linear, fore to background) and drag from the top to the bottom of the image. Tip: Hold down the shift key to constrain to 90 degrees.

Step 4

Apply the plastic wrap filter. This is found under Filter>Gallery Filter>

On earlier versions of Photoshop, it's under Artistic Effects>Artistic

Step 5

Making the Chrome

(In the past, I had you apply a curves adjustment directly onto the Type, but I think it's a better idea to use an adjustment layer because we can change things later and keep tweaking until we get the perfect result.)

Create a curves adjustment layer and make a curve like the one in the example. Go easy the first time, you are laying down the base of the tones here. Also note that I am using the clipping option to only affect the text layer and not all layers (left button on the bottom of the Layers panel)

Step 6

Add a second curves adjustment layer on top (make sure it's clipped too) now you can really shape the way you want the chrome to look, make it bright, or dark depending on the look you are after.

Step 7

Now we will apply a layer style to add some dimension to the chrome letters. Note that the gloss contour is changed to get more of a chrome look. I also added a drop shadow.

And the result

Variations

A variation with different curve settings

If you want, Colorize the image with a Color overlay style

The great thing about using adjustment layers and Layer styles, is that it's non destructive and you can keep playing with it to get different looks.

Here is one where I only use the top curves adjustment, it gives a cleaner look.

And another using only the bottom curves adjustment

Or another variation where I tried a different blend mode (overlay) for the bottom curves adjustment

I hope you have enjoyed this updated chrome tutorial. As you can see, I have completely changed the workflow to make it more flexible. Also note, if you don't use the plastic wrap filter, you don't have to rasterize the text, you can keep it live.

Just for nostalgia, this is what the original effect looked like when I wrote this tutorial over a decade ago, you can see how things have progressed over the years!
