How to make Wednesday-style text
- Black, white and one muted accent. Dark purple or deep red works.
- Choose a gothic font for the title only. Keep other text in a plain serif.
- Add a pale, thin outline around the letters, then a touch of shadow.
- For a school-style crest, place a title in a circle and add initials in the middle.
