    I agree with khalilzip…. What’s that font? In the screen shot is says “Aharoni”, but that’s a Hebrew font and that text is far from hebrew

    This tutorial blows. I’ve done this – and checked, rechecked, and re-re-re-re checked the settings. The text looks very little like it does in the images shown. The “gloss” is completely abscent.

    I learned a little, which is good – but I think it sucks that this is sold the way it is. This isn’t a tutorial that is exact by any measure.

    ….ok, if you were looking for a tutorial in how to be frustrated? This did the job. Congrats.

  • joe

    20/08/2010

    The only thing that is I cant figure out is how to get the little box with color in it under where is say preview (in the Layer style menu) to look glossy. How do I do that? Everything else is correct.
