Glow Effect in Photoshop
The outer glow is a layer effect that applies a stroke around the outer edge pixels in the layer to give the layer the effect of a glow coming from the image. You can adjust the size, color, and noise of the glow.
The inner glow is a layer effect that applies a stroke inside the outer pixels in the layer. You can adjust the size, color and noise of the glow.
The neon glow is an artistic filter that applies a neon glow with a specified color to the image. You can change the size, brightness and color of the glow.
The diffuse glow is a distortion filter that adds a soft, see-through noise to the image. You can adjust the graininess, glow amount and clear amount.
