The Power of Blending Options

Journal Entry: Thu May 8, 2008, 9:31 AM
After publishing my last article on the Process of Making an Icon, I got a few requests for more indepth knowledge on Blending Options, and a more explicit walkthrough of their direct usage.

Now, Blending Options are one of the first things Photoshop Novices stumble upon. The infancy of adding layer styles often leads to a short period of horrible drop shadows and cringeworthy bevels. Ironicly, this easily available styling is one of the harder things to master. Blending options is all about manipulating individual layers to obtain a certain effect. It’s a key aspect of creating icons, and will help you create textures, shading and highlighting.

Apple + i on the safari application in your application folder. Then drag the new safari icon onto the small one in the info screen in the upper left corner.

Bare en lille hilsen. Selvom jeg har været medlem her i mange år har jeg ikke set dig, før jeg i går snakkede med en ven fra kina og så et icon du havde lavet på "chinaUI"
Rart med flere fra DK. Selvom DA slet ikke er det samme som for nogle år siden. Men det er en anden historie. God jul ;)
