Last month I published a collection of 45 Photoshop Tutorials for Better Navigation, which quickly became one of the most popular posts on this blog. Due to the response, I spent some time finding more great Photoshop tutorials. Here are 50 of the best tutorials for working with text.
Create a Spectacular Flaming Meteor Effect on Text
Placing Multiple Images Inside Text
Using Light and Shade to Bring Text to Life
Recreate the “Bee Movie” Text Effect
Color Reflection Special Effects
How to Create a Gold Text Effect
Old School Type - Line Gradients
Cartoon/Comic-Style Text Effect
A Slick Supernatural Text Effect
If you’re a Photoshop user and you’re always interested in some good tutorials, I’ll be posting another collection on a different aspect of Photoshop next week. You can subscribe to the feed if you don’t want to miss the upcoming post.

Isn’t Photoshop a ton of fun?
I have been using Photoshop for years and even taught a couple of basic and intermediate courses. It can be a scary thing for beginners though.
That’s why tutorials are so great. Thanks for the list.
I really like finding new techniques for things that I spend hours on.

I have been using photoshop now for probably over 10 years and I am continually amazed at how little I scratch the surface of that program.
My applications are mainly in photography, so I hit the same features each time. Thanks for sharing these, they are great.

Freakin’ mind readers.
I recently came across this…but was looking for something…nicer? Prettier? Higher class. Booyah.
Thanks.

These links look great. Definitely bookmarked! I might point out, though, that the “Shade” tutorial (6th from the top) is the wrong link.

Karen,
I’m not sure what kind of reply you want. You can buy Photoshop just about anywhere.
Wes,
Thanks for pointing out the dead link. Too much copying and pasting. I fixed it.
April,
I’ve never used Corel Photopaint, but I would highly recommend Photoshop.

Hey there,
Awesome post. I haven’t seen half of these and I’ve been using Photoshop for years! I like how you gave images under each tutorial name so that we can get a feel for the tutorial without having to click it first.
On another note, I’d like to compliment you on your blog. It is very well organized and quite unique.
Keep up the good work!
