Select your outline color as your foreground
color (black in this case). For a rounded edge,
go to EDIT...STROKE and type 6 pixels from the
CENTER and hit OK. |

For a straighter edge on your text, do this after
saving your selection (step one): Click on
SELECTION...MODIFY...CONTRACT: 1 pixel. Now fill
with any color or texture. Then load your
selection again (CTRL+ALT+4) and go to
EDIT...STROKE: 3 pixels from the INSIDE. This
gives you the same effect, but with sharper
edges. |
