• Fri, 06 Dec 2019 10:52:10 +0000: Understanding Inner Shadows in Photoshop - Envato Tuts+ Tutorials
  

  

  Photoshop layer styles are a popular way to add effects, such as drop shadows and strokes, to layers in a non-destructive way.

  In this tutorial, I'm going to explain all the different settings that you'll need to know about when adding an inner shadow in Photoshop.

  So, if you want to learn how to add an inner shadow in Photoshop, then continue reading to find out how easy the entire process really is.

  Follow along with us over on our Envato Tuts+ YouTube channel:

  ---

  The Uses for an Inner Shadow

  The traditional use for an inner shadow is to simulate 3D depth in a 2D image. This is done by creating an offset shadow within a shape to make it look as if it is cut out and casting a shadow on the object beneath it.

  Below, you will see an example of how an inner shadow can indicate how big the light source is and where it is coming from, as well as how far away an object is from the background. By changing only the settings of the inner shadow, you can dramatically change the look of an image.

  

  ---

  The Layer Styles Inner Shadow Dialog Box

  The Inner Shadow dialog box is shown below. The settings are nearly identical to the Drop Shadow dialog box—the only difference is that, instead of the shadow showing up behind the shape, it shows up within the shape.

  

  ---

  Blend Mode

  The Blend Mode allows you to set the blending mode for your shadow. Typically you will want this to be Multiply or Linear Burn, so that your shadow darkens the layer that is behind it.

  If you are unfamiliar with how all the different Blending Modes work, I highly recommend checking out the Blending Is Fun Basix tutorial.

  

  This is also where you set the color of your shadow by clicking the color block next to the Blend Mode dropdown menu. By default, the shadow color will be black, but you can add a tint of color or even try something outrageous to get special effects.

  

  In the following example, you can see that the color of the shadow on the left is black with a Blend Mode of Multiply, while the color of the shadow on the right is a dark purple color with a Blend Mode of Normal. This creates the result you see below.

  

  ---

  Opacity

  The Opacity slider allows you to specify how transparent your shadow will be. A setting of 0% is completely see-through, while 100% is completely opaque.

  

  In the following example, you can see that the shadow on the left adds a subtle hint of depth to the text, while the shadow on the right is more visible and adds even more depth.

  

  ---

  Angle

  The Angle spinner and corresponding box allow you to change the apparent angle that the light source comes from. By turning the Use Global Light checkbox on, any changes you make to the angle of the Inner Shadow will also change the angle of the light sources used in other effects like Bevel & Emboss and Drop Shadow. By leaving it unchecked, you can change the light angle for the Inner Shadow independently of other effects.

  The recommended setting is "checked" for most cases, because we want to have a uniform light source for the most cohesive-looking effect.

  

  In the following example, changing the angle of the light source changes the way in which the shadow falls, and since Use Global Light is checked, it also changes the light angle for the Drop Shadow and Bevel and Emboss effects as well.

  

  ---

  Distance

  The Distance slider changes the apparent distance between the subject and the background. The effect is achieved by altering the offset between the subject and the Inner Shadow itself.

  

  In the following example, increasing the distance gives the effect that the text on the left is simply indented in the cardboard, while the text on the right is a completely separate piece hovering above the background.

  

  ---

  Choke

  The Choke slider changes the falloff of the shadow in a linear fashion, or in other words, how gradually it fades out at the edges.

  For a typical Inner Shadow, you will normally want to leave this at 0%, but for harder shadows you should increase it, and for shadows with hard edges or even inner strokes and faux highlights, you can set it all the way to 100%.

  Adjusting the choke is almost the same as changing the size to 0 px and then altering the distance. It basically achieves the same effect in a different way.

  

  In the following example, increasing the choke percentage to 100% changes the falloff of the shadow so that it has a hard edge.

  

  ---

  Size

  The Size slider changes the apparent size of the light source by softening the edges of the shadow. When it is set to 0 px, the shadow is exactly the same size as the shape of the object. As you increase the size, the shadow grows in 1 px increments.

  

  In the following example, increasing the size of the shadow gives us flexibility over controlling not only the overall size of the shadow, but the softness of it as well.

  

  ---

  Contour

  The Contour shapes allow you to change the falloff of the shadow in a non-linear fashion. By choosing different curve profiles, you can get the shadow to fade out in different ways.

  The only time this is really useful is when you are trying to achieve special glow or abstract effects.

  In addition, the Anti-aliased checkbox allows you to improve the quality of the shadow with a very slight drop in performance. The performance hit is negligible, so I recommend always keeping the box checked.

  

  In the following example, changing the Contour shape to an inverted "U" results in a shadow with a tiny gap between the edge of the shape and where the shadow starts. This is typically not a desirable effect.

  

  ---

  Noise

  The Noise slider is a useful tool to give your shadow a gritty feel. If you are creating a style that is going to resemble dirt or concrete, adding some noise can help the overall effect. For a totally smooth shadow, leave it at 0%.

  

  In the following example, setting the noise to 30% gives us just a little grit in the shadow. A good range to use is 0% to 30%, as going higher than 30% can often result in a very unnatural look.

  

  ---

  Saving and Loading Default Settings

  You can save and load default settings for each effect in the Layer Styles dialog box. When you click Make Default, Photoshop will store whatever settings are currently active as the new default settings for that effect.

  If you click Reset to Default, Photoshop will then load whatever settings were last saved. This allows you to experiment and simply reload the default settings if you want to start over.

  

  Expand Your Photoshop Layer Styles Library

  Want to build an extended Photoshop layer styles library, but don't know exactly where to start? Well, don't worry, since GraphicRiver has you covered, giving you a great selection of layer styles such as these ones.

• Fri, 06 Dec 2019 10:44:56 +0000: How to Create a Realistic Embroidery Text Effect in Adobe Photoshop - Envato Tuts+ Tutorials
  

  

  In this tutorial, I will show you how to create a realistic embroidery text effect in Photoshop using stitch brushes and layer styles. The end result will be a font that looks like embroidery! 

  This is part of my embroidery effect Photoshop action, which is part of the Embroidery and Stitching Photoshop Creation Kit from my portfolio on Envato Market. 

  

  Tutorial Assets

  The following assets were used during the production of this tutorial:

  • False Positive Font
  • Jeans Texture by psddude
  • Pixel-Pattern-Diagonal PAT File

  1. Create the Jeans Background

  Step 1

  Create a new 1100 x 600 px document, and create a new layer called Jeans Background. Copy and Paste the Jeans Texture on this layer. Make sure you use the large texture (2000 x 1500 px). 

  

  Step 2

  Create a new layer called Textured and Fill it with white. Make sure you have the Foreground Color set to white and the Background Color set to black. Go to Filter > Render > Clouds.

  

  Step 3

  Go to Filter > Brush Strokes > Crosshatch. Set the Stroke Length to 15, Sharpness to 16, and Strength to 2. You can, of course, change the settings to your liking. 

  

  Step 4

  Set the blend mode of the Textured layer to Soft Light and around 50% Opacity. If you want, you can change the color of the jeans; add a Color Overlay style to the Textured layer with blend mode Color and simply pick a color that you like. 

  

  2. Create the Stitch Brushes
  

  Step 1

  In order to finish the jeans background and to start creating the stitched embroidery effect, we need some stitch brushes that we are going to make from scratch.

  Create a new PSD file, size 27 x 5 px. Fill the canvas with color black. Go to Edit > Define Brush Preset. Set the brush name to "stitch" and click OK. 

  

  You can now close the new PSD file without saving and return to the initial PSD file (the one with the jeans background). 

  Step 2

  Now we are going to modify the brush that we just made, to create a custom brush. Choose the Brush Tool and select the "stitch" brush from the Brush Preset Picker. Toggle the Brush Panel and make the following settings: Angle 90, Roundness 50%, Spacing 87%, and set the Angle Jitter to Direction.

  

  Step 3

  Click on the top right corner of the Brush Panel and choose New Brush Preset. Name the new brush "stitch1". 

  

  Step 4

  Now we'll create the second brush. Again choose the Brush Tool and select the "stitch" brush from the Brush Preset Picker. Toggle the Brush Panel and make the following settings: Spacing 750% and set the Angle Jitter to Direction.

  

  Step 5

  Click on the top right corner of the Brush Panel and choose New Brush Preset. Name the new brush "stitch2". 

  

  3. Add Sewing Details

  Step 1

  Use the Rectangle Tool and draw a shape as shown in the preview image. Make sure it exceeds the canvas on the top and left/right edges. Name this layer Jeans Border.

  

  Step 2

  Go to Filter > Distort > Wave and set the Wavelength, Amplitude and Scale to create a wavy border. Also go to Filter > Blur > Gaussian Blur and set the Radius to 0.7 pixels.

  

  Step 3

  Add this layer style to the Jeans Border layer: Drop Shadow (color #131e26), Inner Shadow (color #131e26), Inner Glow (color #ffffff), Bevel and Emboss (colors: #ffffff and #131e26).

  

  

  

  

  Step 4
  

  Create a new layer and call it Stitch. Pick the Brush Tool and choose the "stitch2" brush. Set the size to around 13 px and the color to #ffffff. Keep the Shift key pressed to draw a straight line. Add another line on the bottom of the jeans background in the same way.

  

  Step 5
  

  Add this layer style to the Stitch layer: Drop Shadow, Inner Glow, Bevel and Emboss, Stroke.

  

  

  

  

  Step 6
  

  Go to Filter > Distort > Ripple and set the Amount 30% and Size Small. Your result should now look like this.

  

  Step 7
  

  Create a new layer and call it Ripple Edge. Take the Brush Tool and pick the Soft Round Brush which is a default Adobe Photoshop brush that you should have in your list. Toggle the Brush panel to customize the brush and make these settings: Size 50 px, Angle 90, Roundness 45%, Spacing 150%. 

  

  Step 8

  Draw two lines using this custom brush and color white. Set the blend mode of the Ripple Edge layer to Overlay, 40% opacity level. Also add a Drop Shadow layer style (color #0f1114).

  

  4. How to Create an Embroidery Effect in Photoshop

  Step 1

  Create a new text layer and call it Embroidered Text. Type your text using the False Positive font. Click on the Toggle the Character and Paragraph Panels button and set the Font Size to around 230 px, Vertically/Horizontally Scale, etc., as shown in the preview.

  

  You can of course use any font type you want or even combine text and vector shapes. In this last case you will have to convert the layers into a smart object.

  Step 2

  Add a Stroke layer style to the Embroidered Text layer. I am doing that to make the text a little thinner. Right click on the layer and Convert to Smart Object.

  

  Step 3

  Again, add this layer style to the Embroidered Text smart object: Drop Shadow (color #000000), Inner Shadow (color #000000), Bevel and Emboss (colors #ffffff and #000000, Bevel and Emboss - Texture (Pattern "pixel-pattern-diagonal"), Color Overlay (color #686565). 

  

  

  

  

  

  Step 4

  Convert the layer into a smart object one more time to be able to add another layer style without rasterizing the effects. Press Control-T to transform the smart object and scale it to 130% on both the horizontal and vertical scales.

  

  Step 5

  Duplicate the Embroidered Text smart object and call it Shadow. Move this layer below the Embroidered Text smart object. 

  Step 6

  Now we'll add layer styles for each of these two layers. Let's start with the Embroidered Text smart object. Add an Inner Shadow (color #000000), Bevel and Emboss (colors #ffffff and #000000), Color Overlay (color #ffc000) and Gradient Overlay (colors #ffffff and #ffffff). You can choose any Color Overlay you like, but just make sure to also adjust the Gradient Overlay opacity if you want a darker or lighter color tone.

  

  

  

  

  Step 7

  To make the effect more realistic, let's add a Filter > Distort > Ripple and a Filter > Distort > Noise effect. These two effects are added as Smart Filters so you can edit them at any time by double clicking on the Filter name. 

  

  Step 8

  Go to the Shadow Layer and set the Fill to 0%. Next, add a Bevel and Emboss (colors #ffffff and #000000) layer style. The embroidered text should now look like this.

  

  Step 9

  Create a new layer just below the Shadow layer and name it Stitched Border. Keep the Control key pressed and click on the Embroidered Text layer thumbnail to make a selection. Go to Select > Modify > Expand and expand by 5 pixels. 

  

  Step 10

  Go to the Paths tab and choose Make Work Path.

  

  Step 11

  Select the Brush Tool, color #ffffff, and pick the "stitch1" brush. Again from the Paths tab, choose Stroke Path. Press Delete to remove the work path. 

  

  Step 12

  Add a Drop Shadow (color #000000) layer style to the Stitched Border layer. Convert this layer to a smart object. 

  

  Step 13

  Finally, let's add a layer style to the Stitched Border smart object: Drop Shadow (color #161616), Inner Shadow (color #161616), Bevel and Emboss (color #ffffff and #161616), Color Overlay (color #f5f5f5—you can choose any color you want for the stitch).

  All of the themes listed above come with customer support to help you solve any problems that may arise when using them. 

  4. You Are in Control

  5 Design Tips for Real Estate Websites to Get More Leads

  Choosing the right theme for your real estate website is a great way to come up with an attractive design that also has all the features you need. Here are five tips that will help you make the most out of your new Real Estate WordPress theme.

  1. Optimize for Photography

  One of the very first things your visitors want to see when they come searching for a property will be the photos. Ensure your chosen theme has plenty of space and features that allow you to showcase both the exterior and the interior of any listed property. You can take advantage of property galleries like those offered in Real Homes to add multiple images to each listing.

  2. Make Use of the Booking Form

  Adding a booking form makes it easier on the visitors to take action and schedule a tour of the listing. This is a great way to encourage interaction and increase the chances of closing more sales. Consider using a theme like OpalHomes to easily add it to your site.

  3. Add Featured Listings to Your Homepage

  You can also highlight your own listings on the homepage by adding a featured listing slideshow. This allows you to showcase your best properties and gives visitors a way to easily find the property they’re interested in.

  4. Include Useful Information

  Listing property information is an absolute necessity, but you can take it a step further and include information that will help your customers get familiar with all the terms. Consider creating a separate page that provides them with an explanation of the buying process as well as terms such as a fixed rate mortgage, adjustable rate mortgage, and more.

  5. Incorporate a Signup Form

  Lastly, keep in mind that some of your visitors may not be ready to schedule a tour right then and there. Don’t miss out on the opportunity to capture their email address. Include a strategically placed email sign up form so you can stay in touch with them. That way, you can nurture the relationship until they’re ready to buy.
