Step 1

If you want to try a different background, you can try one of the many wall backgrounds on Envato Elements.

Use your Type tool (T), select the Graffogie font with a Size of 285 pt, and write the word „Vote” on your artboard. Then go to Type > Warp Text and select Shell Upper with Bend: 21%, Horizontal Distortion: -29%, and Vertical Distortion: 22%, and hit OK. Finally, select only the letter „V” on your artboard and then go to your Character panel and set the Tracking to -75.

Step 3

Use your Type tool (T) again to write two more words: „for” and „Pedro”. Make sure that each word is on its own layer. Write „for” with the font size 116 pt and tracking 75. Then write „Pedro” on a new layer with the font size 255 pt and tracking 75.

What You’ll Be Creating

In this tutorial, I will show you how to create a graffiti text effect in Photoshop. We will use layer styles and the „Blend If” function from the blending options.

The text effect we will be creating is inspired by Graffiti styles from Envato Market.

Tutorial Assets

The following assets were used during this text effect tutorial:

1. How to Set the Background and the Text

Step 1

We will use a brick wall background for this graffiti text effect. Open Photoshop and instead of creating a new document, go to File > Open… and select Brick-wall.jpg from the tutorial assets. If you want to try a different background, you can try one of the many wall backgrounds on Envato Elements.

Brick wall

Step 2

Use your Type tool (T), select the Graffogie font with a Size of 285 pt, and write the word „Vote” on your artboard. Then go to Type > Warp Text and select Shell Upper with Bend: 21%, Horizontal Distortion: -29%, and Vertical Distortion: 22%, and hit OK. Finally, select only the letter „V” on your artboard and then go to your Character panel and set the Tracking to -75.

Type Vote

Step 3

Use your Type tool (T) again to write two more words: „for” and „Pedro”. Make sure that each word is on its own layer. Write „for” with the font size 116 pt and tracking 75. Then write „Pedro” on a new layer with the font size 255 pt and tracking 75.

Type for and pedro

Step 4

Use your Move Tool (V) and move the writing together. Then select all three text layers in your Layers panel and hit Control-T. Now set the Rotate to -8°. Finally, we are ready to start creating Photoshop text effects.

Weekly Platform News: HTML Loading Attribute, the Main ARIA Specifications, and Moving from iFrame to Shadow DOM

Dodaj komentarz

Post pobrano z: Weekly Platform News: HTML Loading Attribute, the Main ARIA Specifications, and Moving from iFrame to Shadow DOM

In this week’s roundup of platform news, Chrome introduces a new attribute for loading, accessibility specifications for web developers, and the BBC moves visualizations to the Shadow DOM.

Chrome ships the loading attribute

The HTML loading attribute for lazy-loading images and iframes is now supported in Chrome. You can add loading="lazy" to defer the loading of images and iframes that are below the viewport until the user scrolls near them.

Google suggests either treating this feature as a progressive enhancement or using it on top of your existing JavaScript-based lazy-loading solution.

This feature has not yet been added to the HTML Standard (but there is an open pull request), and multiple links to Google’s documentation are listed on its Chrome Status page.

(via web.dev)

Overview of ARIA specifications

The main accessibility specifications for web developers:

Name Description
ARIA in HTML Defines which ARIA role, state, and property attributes are allowed on which HTML elements (the implicit ARIA semantics are defined here)
Using ARIA Provides practical advice on how to use ARIA in HTML, with an emphasis on dynamic content and advanced UI controls (the “five rules of ARIA use” are defined here)
ARIA (Accessible Rich Internet Applications) Defines the ARIA roles, states, and properties
ARIA Authoring Practices Provides general guidelines on how to use ARIA to create accessible apps (includes ARIA implementation patterns for common widgets)
HTML Accessibility API Mappings Defines how browsers map HTML elements and attributes to the operating system’s accessibility APIs
WCAG (Web Content Accessibility Guidelines) Provides guidelines for making web content more accessible (success criteria for WCAG conformance are defined here)

Related: “Contributing to the ARIA Authoring Practices Guide” by Simon Pieters and Valerie Young

Shadow DOM on the BBC website

The BBC has moved from <iframe> to Shadow DOM for the embedded interactive visualizations on its website. This has resulted in significant improvements in load performance (“more than 25% faster”).

The available Shadow DOM polyfills didn’t reliably prevent styles from leaking across the Shadow DOM boundary, so they decided to instead fall back to <iframe> in browsers that don’t support Shadow DOM.

Shadow DOM […] can deliver content in a similar way to iframes in terms of encapsulation but without the negative overheads […] We want encapsulation of an element whose content will appear seamlessly as part of the page. Shadow DOM gives us that without any need for a custom element.

One major drawback of this new approach is that CSS media queries can no longer be used to conditionally apply styles based on the content’s width (since the content no longer loads in a separate, embedded document).

With iframes, media queries would give us the width of our content; with Shadow DOM, media queries give us the width of the device itself. This is a huge challenge for us. We now have no way of knowing how big our content is when it’s served.

(via Toby Cox)

In other news…

  • The next version of Chrome will introduce the Largest Contentful Paint performance metric; this new metric is a more accurate replacement for First Meaningful Paint, and it measures when the largest element is rendered in the viewport (usually, the largest image or paragraph of text) (via Phil Walton)
  • Microsoft has created a prototype of a new tool for viewing a web page’s DOM in 3D; this tool is now experimentally available in the preview version of Edge (via Edge DevTools)
  • Tracking prevention has been enabled by default in the preview versions of Edge; it is set to balanced by default, which “blocks malicious trackers and some third-party trackers” (via Techdows)
