you'll also need the RVB Fantaisies Plug-in. You can Download it from the
PhotoFiltre web site if you don't already have it installed. |

| If you like the look to the right by all means save it. If you want a different color now the Fun Begins. We'll be using the RGB
Fantasy Tool. It's in French so you find it as: Menu = Filter / Plug-in / RVB Fantasies. I'll show some examples with the the color
codes I used to get you started. Make sure your text is still selected (you'll know by the dashed line around your text) before you use this
Plug-in.
All settings below are with the RVB+ Tab Selected. |
