************************************************************ *Product Name: Antique Gold Styles *Copyright September 2010 *By: SorayaShams - Patricia Majid *Product Copyright: Patricia Majid ************************************************************ This is a collection of 24 antique gold styles (every style has 2 versions, so all in all 48 styles) and could be used for privat or commercial projects. -------------------------------------- Contents: 24 unique gold styles, every style was saved in 2 different versions, the second version I have created for Text layers and smaller images. All styles were created in high quality and at 300 dpi and all styles are seamless, making them perfect for web design or character creation. -------------------------------------- System Requirements: PC Photoshop CSx NOTE: This program has been tested in Photoshop CS2 only! (The styles may work also with other versions, but this version is tested) -------------------------------------- Ownership Statement: All of the content in this package was created by Patricia Majid aka SorayaShams, most textures were created in Photoshop with Photoshop plugins and in Fireworks with Fireworks plugins and may include derivatives of the following Vendor/Merchant resources: some textures by deviantart -------------------------------------- Installation Instructions: 1. Unzip and extract the styles (.asl file) into your Photoshop styles' Windows directory (normally C:/Program Files/Adobe Photoshop/Presets/Styles). 2. Open Photoshop and under the 'Window' menu select 'Styles' 3. In the new opened Window, load the Antique_Gold_Styles.asl by clicking on the little triangle in the circle at the right side and select 'Load styles' from the Drop Down Menu. 4. Choose the layer you would like to add a style and click on that style you like to add to. -------------------------------------- Usage Tips: This is a simple step to do. After you have done the 4 steps above (Installation Instruction), you have the choice of 2 different versions per style. The first version I have named with ...layer_style... and the second versions I have named ...text_style. The first versions were made for bigger objects/images and the second versions fits Text layers and little Images and images with thin swirls like flower ornaments, ect. But you can choose which style version looks better at your object and if needed re-scale the effect for a better fitting, which is very simple to do: Under the 'Layer' menu, select 'Layer Styles' and select 'Scale Effects ...' from the pop out menu. Click on the arrow button to show the Scale slider. You can change the size of the style visually using the slider or by entering a specific number. The numbers below can be used as a starting point. 100% (no scaling) for Web size images 150% for Medium sized images 275% for Large sized images All styles are seamless, making them perfect for web design or character creation. All styles were created in high quality and at 300 dpi (best print quality), if your layers have for example a resolution of 72 dpi, you have to re-scale the style for a perfect result. For 72 dpi the result is great with a scale effect between 400% and 500%. -------------------------------------- Terms of Use: All items included in this pack may be used for personal or commercial work provided they are not offered for resale in their original form.
