Special Effects

You will have to use layer effects to give some depth to your button:

  1. Select Layers > Effects > Bevel and emboss.

  2. The effect is immediately visible on the image. If you are happy with it, click on OK; if not, adjust the dialog box settings.

  3. Click on OK.

To apply an effect on text, click on the layer containing the button text and repeat the three steps listed above.



Figure 6: We have applied the Bevel and Emboss effect on the text using the Emboss option, and applied the Bevel and Emboss effect to the button using the Inner Bevel option.
