Marque Backlight Color and Your Marque Graphic
« on: February 02, 2018, 12:41:44 pm »
Hi Everyone,

Its been a long time but I'm back.  I had a question regarding back light color of your marque light box.  Is there a way to simulate what your Photoshop graphic will look like with different colors of back light?  My goal is to have some different images appear based on the back color displayed behind the graphic.

For example if the back light is red all the white clouds will be red. If its orange the white clouds change orange in my marque graphic.  Does anyone know which filter in Photoshop simulates this so I can see how my sign will look under the different colors?

Cheers

you can reduce the gamma correction. I like about 70% of the original brightness and it works for me.

What tools do you have handy,  I use Gimp primarily so here is a guide for that,
