  • Creating a cool button

    Author: 2009-10-21 02:25:44 From:

    A tutorial explaining how to create a cool button using Photoshop effects.

    1. Create a new document (Ctrl+N) with a white background. Create new layer (Layer/New/Layer). Create a circle selection.

     

    2. Fill it with Gradiet tool in Radial gradient mode . Name this layer "gradient".

     

    3. Create two guides crossing in the center of "gradient". Holding the Shift and Alt keys create a new cicle smaller than "gradient". Name this layer "main reflection".

    4. Using Anchor Point Tool transform "main reflection".

     

    5. Add Vector mask . And fill it with black and white gradient in Linear gradient mode .



     

    6. Create new cicle and cut it with elliptical selection. Name it "edge".

    7. Add Vector mask.

     

    8. Dublicate "edge". Go to Edit/Transform/Rotate (Ctrl+T) and rotate it. Make reflection in the bottom.

     

    9. Select "gradient" layer and go to Layer/Layer style/Drop shadow.

    10. Add any elements and it's done.

     

    11. Cool! :-)
