If you don't already have your Styles window visible, click on "Window" and then "Styles" 4. In your "Styles" Window, click on the little triangle in a circle, that's pointing to the right. (located in the upper right hand corner below the "open/close") of the styles box 5. Select "Load Styles" from the Drop Down Box 6. Locate and Choose/highlight/load the desired .asl file(s) (.asl file=layer styles extension) into your Photoshop Styles Tool Palette 7.

Use pattern to fill or stroke an image, etc.** ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Usage Tips/Special Instructions Quickie Re-Scaling Instructions: "How To Re-Scale/Adjust Layer Styles for Any Size Image in Photoshop" 1) To scale your layer effects go to (menu) Layer > Layer Style > Scale Effects. Or you can access this command from the Layers palette by right-clicking on the small layer effects symbol (looks like an f) on your layer, then choosing the Scale Effects command. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 2) When you choose Scale Effects, the dialog box "Scale Layer Effects" will appear. You can reduce the scale down as low as 1% to make the effects smaller, or increase the scale up to 1000% to make the effects larger. This re-scales every effect used in the Layer Style at once...OR you can just remove/add a shadow, add a stroke or inner bevel, change the pattern scale size, etc. *Checking the "Preview" box will allow you to see as you're adjusting.* --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 3) So the next time you download some layer styles and find they don't look quite the same on your own images as they did in the examples, try scaling the effects and see if it makes a difference. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- [Filename] _birthstonesbling_peridot_styles.asl birthst_bling_peridot_astro_header.png birthst_bling_peridot_border_01.png birthst_bling_peridot_border_02.png birthst_bling_peridot_dividerbar_01.png birthst_bling_peridot_dividerbar_02.png birthst_bling_peridot_frame.png birthst_bling_peridot_gem_01.png birthst_bling_peridot_gem_010.png birthst_bling_peridot_gem_011.png birthst_bling_peridot_gem_012.png birthst_bling_peridot_gem_013.png birthst_bling_peridot_gem_014.png birthst_bling_peridot_gem_015.png birthst_bling_peridot_gem_016.png birthst_bling_peridot_gem_017.png birthst_bling_peridot_gem_018.png birthst_bling_peridot_gem_02.png birthst_bling_peridot_gem_03.png birthst_bling_peridot_gem_04.png birthst_bling_peridot_gem_05.png birthst_bling_peridot_gem_06.png birthst_bling_peridot_gem_07.png birthst_bling_peridot_gem_08.png birthst_bling_peridot_gem_09.png birthst_bling_peridot_heartcharm.png birthst_bling_peridot_jeweled_overlay.png birthst_bling_peridot_wallpaper.png birthst_bling_peridot_wordart.png birthstbling_peridot_patterns.pat birthstbling_peridot_tile_01.png birthstbling_peridot_tile_02.png birthstbling_peridot_tile_03.png birthstbling_peridot_tile_04.png birthstbling_peridot_tile_05.png birthstbling_peridot_tile_06.png birthstbling_peridot_tile_07.png birthstbling_peridot_tile_08.png birthstbling_peridot_tile_09.png birthstbling_peridot_tile_10.png birthstbling_peridot_tile_11.png birthstbling_peridot_tile_12.png Documentation birthst_bling_peridot_readme.txt renderosity_License.txt Total number of folders = 1 Subfolder=1 Total number of files = 44 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Copyright notice: You CAN use the styles to create/style any NEW personal or commercial works.
