Well were back again to walk you through another fun and useful tool in Photoshop, layer styles.

Ing Photoshop 3D How To Use Layer

Be sure to check out the video below, where you can follow along with one of the pros and learn how to use layer styles.

Typically layer styles are used for text effects, but they can be used on images, backgrounds, and any other layer.

You will probably be most familiar with these in the form of the preset layers available in Photoshop, such as Drop Shadow, Stroke, Inner Glow, etc.

When applied, a layer style are linked to all the contents of a layer -- so when you move or edit that particular layer, your styles are still applied to the modified contents.

The versatility of such a tool allows for tons of experimentation as you can easily switch between styles, apply different styles to different layers, and shift all of your contents around without affecting the styles.

Ing Photoshop 3D Install Layer Styles

Theres actually a couple different methods that you can use to install layer styles, but each one takes only a couple of steps.

This will reveal a new folder containing a few other files, one of which is an.ASL file.

To apply a layer style, simply select the layer that you would like to modify to and then find the style youd like to use in your Style Palette, then when you click the style it will be immediately applied to your layer.

If you glance at your layers palette, you will see the effects have been added to your layer.

The more complicated the style, the more effects you will see listed under your layer.

You can also switch between different styles with ease by clicking around in your palette.

If you find that your style is not working, check to make sure the layer is not locked.

If you find that your styles arent looking quite right, you might try a different font.

If you have a few handy style packs in your designer utility belt, youre well on your way to adding a layer of depth and professionalism to your designs.

There are some amazing products available in the marketplace to help you get started using layer styles.

They are also incredibly helpful and time-saving in Illustrator and InDesign.

When I click on the styles load styles, it takes me to a roaming user location, which is of course blank because I didnt install them there, and thats not where photoshop took me to install them last time.

I manually added them to that folder, just in case, but they are still not visible there, either.

Id really appreciate some help, quite a few things I purchases came with ASL files and I followed the instructions, but nothing works.

We urge you to first contact the other designer and try to work the issue out.
