Hi,

I’m looking out for a chrome-effect for textdecoration, but I didn’t found good filters with good results.
I just downloaded a demo from alienskin but still there is no acceptable chrome-filter … or perhaps I’m too stupid. within their eyecandy 5 box is an effect ‘diamond plate’ witch looks really nice but this thing only puts a structure on the layer and not on the layer’s border.

can someone help me? witch filters can you recommend?

kind regards,
alain

Do a search for "Chrome" and Photoshop on google… You have about 47,900 options to choose from.

Personally, I like this one <http://www.balzasteel.com/tutorials/chrbutton.shtml> but I’m biased. 😉

These are decent, too:

There’s some good ones in the Photoshop WOW book as well.

Hopefully that will get you started.

Also, have you thought about using Layer Styles? I’ve got a couple of dozen chrome varieties and haven’t created chrome ‘by hand’ or plugin in a couple of years. There are some excellent ones in the collection included in the book/cd "Photoshop 7 One-Click Wow!" by Jack Davis and Linnea Dayton. You can find it on Amazon pretty cheap.

Here’s a link to download Hatch’s Layer Styles. You’ll find a nice collection of Metallics on page 6 of the downloadable styles.
