Photoshop Interface tutorials
on how to create web site navigation bars, menus, winamp
skins, buttons, web site templates and any other interfaces
you can think of. Designing a good interface in photoshop
requires a good understanding of the pen tool, beveling,
shading and lighting effects. By taking advantage of the
pen tool you will be able to create the layouts of complex
interfaces which can be easily modified should you decided
to change it later on. Using different types of lighting
and beveling techniques you will be able to give your
image a 3D look, and you may finalize your interface by
adding textures to it. All these techniques combined,
and more, can be used to create great 3d looking interfaces
in photoshop that will look as if you made them using
a 3D program!
