BEADWORKS Layer Styles for Photoshop 7 & Above Copyright ©2013 Roberta Dugan Created by: fractalartist01/Roberta B. Dugan --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- --This new set of 24 layer styles consists of carved bead patterns to embellish or create new designs with! A variety of different types of beads are included-along with many different color combinations. There are some gold and silver; southwestern looks, metallic and pearly beadworks. There are even a few that are additionally adorned with pearls or gemstones/crystals. -- They were created and tested for use in Photoshop 7 & Above. --Each style was created with seamless pattterns at 300dpi which makes them suitable for use for either print or digital creations. --Check out some of the product example pages for some ideas on incorporating your new beadworks layer styles into your new creations! And don't forget that you can scale your patterns up or down or to layer with different/other styled layers/images as I do in some of the examples. There are short text instructions on how to do this included inside your Readme file. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- This package was created for PC and MAC ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Files/Programs needed but not supplied in this archive: -Adobe Photoshop 7 or Above- The current version of Adobe Photoshop can be found here: http://www.adobe.com/products/photoshop/family/?promoid=BPDEK NOTE: These styles have been tested in Photoshop 7, CS and CS2 and above and may not work in other versions of Photoshop ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Installation Instructions Into Photoshop: 1.

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. {Somewhere in between those settings usually looks best, however} 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. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- File List: [File name] cpd_Beadworks_layerStyles.asl cpd_beadworks_MAIN.jpg Total number of files = 2 [File name] cpd_Beadworks_styles_Readme.txt Renderosity_License.txt Total number of files = 2 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Copyright notice: You CAN use these styles to create/style any NEW personal or commercial works.
