Create a colorful Carnival text effect online

This weekend is Carnival in my country, so I'm in the mood to create a nice colorful text effect to celebrate.

If you want to make this effect, go to this online 3D text logo designer, so configure it this way (I show just the items that matter):
- 3D text style: 5th option;
- Text: Carnival (choose your own text);
- Font size: Big;
- Margin: 4;
- Background color: FFFF80;
- Get as a transparent PNG file: unchecked;
- Font name: Kingthings Hand.

Following these steps, you generate this beautiful colorful text (click to see in real size):


Extra tips:
- this text can be created with a transparent background (check the "Get as a transparent PNG file" option);
- many back colors can be used here, but I suggest you always select a very saturated (hot) one;
- try to avoid too serious fonts, like the very squared ones, or those that have sharp corners (in my opinion, they don't create a happy mood);
- create many amazing colorful text effects online by using these free 3D text logo design generators.

How to make a dark scary text effect

Today we create a text effect that can help you to get a macabre or horror mood.

You can make this effect by navigating to this online 3D text logo generator and setting its elements like this (don't care about shadow items):
- 3D text style: 6th option;
- Text: SCARY (set your message);
- Font size: Normal;
- Margin: 4;
- Background color: 000000;
- Get as a transparent PNG file: unchecked;
- Font name: Green Fuz.

These instructions are to create the text effect shown below:


Extra tips:
- this text can be created with a transparent background (check the "Get as a transparent PNG file" option);
- if you can, keep the black background because it fits the text to get a macabre style;
- the selected 3D rendering style offers some inner lights, what is important to keep the text readable (this also gives a kind of "ghost look");
- the used software offers other font faces that can be used to improve the scary look (there are over 450 fonts in total);
- create a lot of interesting effects online by using these free 3D text logo editors.

An electronic circuit text effect

This time we generate a very nice circuit text effect. It can be used when the subject is electronics, tech, modern devices, science, etc.

To make such effect, surf to this online tech text logo generator, so adjust its parameters this way (we will not modify shadow values):
- 3D text style: 5th option;
- Text: CIRCUIT (set your message);
- Font size: Big;
- Margin: 4;
- Background color: FF8000;
- Get as a transparent PNG file: unchecked;
- Font name: Tsa.

These steps end up creating this cool text effect (click to view it bigger):


Extra tips:
- this text can be created with a transparent background (check the "Get as a transparent PNG file" option);
- the background color is a matter of choice, but I remind you that if you choose a dark color, it can be hard to see the external shadows;
- I have chosen this font in particular because it splices several character pairs and it helps to reinforce the "circuit idea" (a circuit usually has many parts connected);
- generate a big number of tech texts by using the free online 3D text logo generators.
