Just remembered

Here I am doing some lynda.com training, and I recalled I had already long ago shared a way to blur live editable text in Photoshop using a centered Inner Glow effect. The technique appears in all my Photoshop One-on-One books and videos.

I suppose I should (to quote myself), "geek out and do the d'oh, slap-my-head, I-can't-believe-I-[already]-figured-that-out-before thing."

The upside of possessing an addeled mind is that I can discover things again and again and take pleasure in it. And besides, this technique is slightly better.

That is pretty cool. As soon

That is pretty cool. As soon as you said to drop the Fill, I figured out the rest before hitting the next word~ It's one of those things that, once you see it, it's just so obvious! Thanks a lot ^_^
