[How To] Interface Buttons


WolfX2

Recommended Posts

Here's a real simple, quick and easy interface button you can make with PhotoFiltre. In order to complete this tutorial you will need the Gravure Filter and the RGB Fantasy Filter. You can download them both for free on the PhotoFiltre Web Site. Just click on the Plug-ins Link to the left. Once you have them installed you can access them from the Filter / Plug-in menu or your plug-in tool bar if you have them set up there. RGB Fantasy is a Plug-in I use quite often so you may want to download it even if this tutorial is of no interest to you.

Note: you may want to place it up to the top like mine

if you plan on making more than one button.
