Text Effects similar to iOS 'Emoji Lock Screen Wallpaper'?

[Keegan Cherry]

Hello!

I am writing to see if anyone has found a way to quickly create a text effect similar to the iOS 'Emoji Lock Screen Wallpaper'? Trying to make playlist artwork covers and wanted to mimic the look similar to "Spirals" and "Rings".

Thanks!

I guess it´d be helpful to see at least an example image.

Here is an example I found on the web:

Are you really talking about a rounded rectangle with a text object above?

@EllenM, no lol. I want to easily/quickly shape a text box to look like the emoji in the images.

I still have difficulties to understand what you mean by"Text effects" then.

I’m asking if Pixelmator can easily change the look of a text box. Rather than trying to manually manipulate the shape, curve, etc. of a text box.

There are different types like the parametric rounded rectange available in the shapes library - which you can easily extend to your liking by adding your own ones.
