Now, we make some
buttons!
Select the background layer (with the shape) and use the Magic wand
tool to select black shape. Go to Select/ Modify/
Contract and set it to 12.
|
| Select the
Eliptical Marquee tool and hold down the Alt-key on your keyboard
while drawing an big oval in the center of the image then release
the Alt key. Remove the floating selections at the bottom of the
image in the same way. It will look like the image above. Save the
selection.
|
|
Fill it with
black. Go to Select/Modify/Contract and set it to 2. Add a new
layer. Fill the selection with desired color. Then use the airbrush
tool (100p, Opacity 10) and paint carefully from the top, so it
will get an gradient effect. (dark top and green at the
bottom)
|
| Go to
Layer/Effects and chose bevel and emboss with settings shown here
to the right.
Merge down the layer.
|
|
|
Now add a
smooth outerbevel on this layer with the layer effects as shown
here to the left.
|
|
I also wrote some text
between the buttons and I used the same layer effect settings
(outer bevel) on that as above.
