The first person to post a coherent comment on this article answering the following question wins an Apaganza Vector CoolKit of their choice!
I often use the layer effects options in Photoshop, they are a great time-saving tool. One of the small details that I find perticularly annoying is they default setting on the outer glow.
As you can see it is set to a sickly yellow at 75% opacity on the ‘screen’ setting. It’s a setting I, personally, never use… so here is the question…
How do you change the default settings for layer effects in Photoshop CS4?
First correct answer posted below wins, good luck….
While you can’t change the default style settings that appear in the Layer Styles dialog (although I have to mention how happy I am to see that the default Stroke color is black in PSCS4!), you can set them up the way you prefer, and then save them via the New Style button (on the right of the New Style dialog). You can see these styles in the Layer Style dialog (click the word “Style” in the upper left), and they are easily accessible at all times via the Styles panel.
well done mark, that’s about can you can do, pick a CoolKit, vector or Ps, and i’ll send it to you.
Hi Ivan thank you. I like the Texture CoolKit – Abstract Art, but I’m not sure if that was what you meant I could have. Thanks again.
the prize was a vector coolKit or PS brush set, Texture coolkits are too big to email, sorry
Vector skyline please.
