Wednesday, April 26, 2006 |
Now, lets play. First, set foreground color to white. Or, you can choose another color, I picked white. Then, select Photoshop GRADIENT TOOL Here , from dropdown menu, you can select whatever you want. You are freely to experiment. I choose second mode , called FOREGROUND TO TRANSPARENT. When you choose it, click somewhere in the middle of your new banner, and draw a line to left. When you pull out the mouse, you'll see something interesting. You can go to EDIT – STEP BECKWARD if you don't like what you have done, and try again. Play with size of line, with start position, with place where you stop... You can make lots of different effects with this tool.Labels: banner, tutorial |
