    Something up with the gradient tool?

    I'm going to use Layer Styles that SCTRWD suggested. Strange the normal gradient tool doesn't seem to work. Thanks everyone.

    Something up with the gradient tool?

    Layer styles doesn't have the flexibilty I'd like. With a gradient tool I can drag on it.

    Something up with the gradient tool?

    It's strange. I apply a gradient to the area outside of the cicle...it's black and white. If I do it inside of the circle...it's just fade.

    Something up with the gradient tool?

    If I select the layer, it says "could not use the gradient tool because the contents of the layer is not directly editable"

    Something up with the gradient tool?

    I select gradient tool, then I select the layer mask, then I draw over the circle. Is this right? it creates a gradient...but not to the desired effect.

    Something up with the gradient tool?

    Blend mode is normal. I use a layer mask so the gradient only affects the cicle itself.

    Something up with the gradient tool?

    As you can see, the circle still fades to background rather than black.

    Something up with the gradient tool?

    Thanks but I'm afraid none of the tips help. It's 100% opacity, the mode is normal and it's fade to colour. Still it fades to background.

    Something up with the gradient tool?

    Hi I've just created a white circle. I would like to add some shading on it to make it appear more 3D. I use the gradient tool...but instead of it being white...with dark grey/black shading. It goes from white and fades to the colour of the background it's on. I've spent hours messing around...

    How to add Grainy and Gaussian blur effects?

    Sort of. I'm not an expert. Never really done adjustment layers or smart objects.

    How to add Grainy and Gaussian blur effects?

    Hi I'm trying to create a poster like this. It's nearly done except for the grainy effects (noise) and the guassain blur. Is there a way of adding effects to the whole of the psd file and changing the contrast/hue without having to flatten the layers? Thanks.

    cut out bold effect

    Managed to get the building white (path 1), but when I try to get the blocks/windows (path 2) filled with dark grey...it either deletes the white background or just will not fill in the path with grey. I select the paths as shown in the picture...select "fill subpath" with colour...nothing...

    cut out bold effect

    Hi I've just tried this by hand. Traced over the building using paths...but I cannot seem to fill the subpaths? As you can see, I've traced over the windows/lines and I want them to be filled in dark grey and the rest of the building white...how do I do it? The "fill subpath/stroke" is greyed...

    cut out bold effect

    Hi I am just wondering how to achieve this effect (as seen in the following attachments). The buildings have bold colours with barely any detail. Is this something that can be done using photoshop filters or does it need to be done by hand i.e drawing outlines with pen tool then filling with...
