: In Photoshop, is possible to get wet edges effect without opacity buildup? I know the build-up is part of the effect, but is there any way to get the wet edges effect without a build-up?

I know the build-up is part of the effect, but is there any way to get the wet edges effect without a build-up? It's okay if the center color is not transparent, just as long as the outer edge color is darker. The darker outer-edge effect is all that I want.

EDIT/UPDATE:



Both of the bottom 2 effects are 1px 100% opacity. The stroke effect is too jagged. I tried outer glow, which is much smoother, but not varied on edge darkness like wet edges.

No. It is not possible. Outer glow with a dark color and thin border seems to be closest thing possible in Photoshop to the desired effect.

If it's simply a darker edge that you desire I suggest adding a stroke instead.

Double-click on the desired layer to show the layer style box, select stroke in the sidebar and adjust colour, size, etc. until you achieve the desired result. You can set the position to outside to ensure it wraps your shape.
