    2 Photoshop Tutorial   Create a Glass Sphere or Gel ButtonThe most commonly requested Adobe Photoshop tutorial seems to be the one which shows how to create a glassy sphere or button. Never one to take a back seat, I thought I’d throw my basic Photoshop version into the mix. This is a tutorial showing how to create a glass Photoshop button set into a metallic base. The Photoshop file uses three flat shape layers with layer styles applied.

      For photoshop …
      For photoshop klutzes like me tutorials like these totally unlock the power of photoshop. Struggled for an hour pausing and catching up with the keystrokes (occasionally failing to recreate one or two gradients and getting behaviour not quite the same as on the video) but it was time so well spent – the results were fantastic!

      Thank you so much for taking the time to post this!!! I would never have been able to create a button like this on my own.

      Cheers – Rob H
