Photography portfolio
January 21st, 2008 by ART-D Posted in Adobe Photoshop, Web Layout
Awesome photography portfolio design with a lot of content boxes and an attractive look.
Create a new file (File>New) that would have 800×800 px and 72 dpi. Selecting the Paint Bucket Tool (G) may help us to paint the new file with the next color #111111
Next we have to use the Rounded Rectangle Tool (U) (radius 7 px) to represent the primary layer reserved for the menu’s button, situated on the site’s header.
The layer’s parameters are selected by making a mouse click on the necessary layer on the layers’ panel.
Blending Options>Gradient Overlay
Gradient’s parameters:
Blending Options>Stroke
Using the same instrument, it’s possible to represent a highlight on the menu’s button. Firstly we need to represent the zone of the highlight to be and then, holding on Alt button, erase the unnecessary elements.
The layer’s parameters: Fill 0%
Blending Options>Gradient Overlay
Gradient’s parameters:
Using the same instrument and the same radius, try to represent next the zone reserved for the buttons’ indicator of white color. Press Alt button and select the Rectangle Tool (U) to erase the unnecessary elements.

Hi!
I’m very new to photoshop. I was wondering if someone could explain these words:
“Using the same instrument, it’s possible to represent a highlight on the menu’s button. Firstly we need to represent the zone of the highlight to be and then, holding on Alt button, erase the unnecessary elements. ”
I’m stuck on this part! What is it that I need to do?
