Learning Photoshop is not that difficult after all. We learned about the different tools, the different panels, and the basics of colors. There is this feature of Photoshop wherein we can style out layers differently. We can actually dress up layers like how we want it to look like. This article will feature the layer styles and how you can use them to your own liking.
Did you think that Photoshop can only make photos look great? Photoshop can extend its reaches to layers, too. But before you go deeper into the realms of layer editing, you should first learn how to blend or in simpler terms, you need to know a thing or two about basic editing because layer styles are one of the most obvious edits in Photoshop.
How can I stylize my layers?
Like any other program, Photoshop has a default made-up set of styles that you can choose from. But of course, you can manually design your layers. All you have to do is to go to a layer in the layers panel, right click the name of the layer you want to put design to, and then select Blending Options. This will pop a dialog box with reference to the layer style you want. This is also great for people who want tailor-fit designs made just for them.
Once it pops up, you will see a lot of options that you can tweak but for now, we will stick with only to how you can style layers. We will discuss this deeper in next articles of this Photoshop tutorial. But let me list down what you will see when you select the Blending Options button.
