Darken? I believe Soft Light is the correct way... Darken would be really effective for light sigs...
you really felt the need to make this spam thread? [/b][/quote] You like to run youre mouth dont you? THIS IS A TUTORIAL, STFU!
This is a tutorial and their are many ways to make the 3 px border so if you do it a different way then it's ok but this is helpful for beginners and is here for people who want to learn nice tut although I do it a different way
There isn't necessairly a "correct" way. Each blending mode gives off a different effect, it just depends on what you like and what you don't. If you like it better on "Soft Light", then do that. It's your choice, and yea, I should have specified that. I realize that I didn't put a lot of time into the tut, and could have made it better with pictures and what not, but it's not really necessary, it's fairly simple and can give off different effects when you mess around with the blending modes.
