"Hi! This is Kyle with Expert Village, I am going to show you some more tips on using photoshop. Now, on your Gol, let us say for instance that you want free transformed. You want it a little bit bigger, now typically on text shift button while you pull this it will remain perfectly aligned, but normally we would just go into the text and redo the size, but in this case, we are going to do it here. Okay, let us say for instance that you want to do a layer, go to layer style and then blending options. Now, this is one of the most important things you can ever use on photo shop. Just put it over here where we can see it. Go to blend mode and go down the blending, just get down and it goes to dissolve, goes to darken, multiply. See, some of them have effects, some of them don’t 'Burn' doesn’t look okay. So, really on this particular one you are going to probably want to stay with normal because otherwise it is too thin for you to see so go back up to normal, it’s the very top one. Now, go down to bevel and emboss, right click it. Now this is what’s going to give you little bit of a 3D image. Go to bevel, now click on here… once you click on here just because you checked the box it doesn’t mean you have actually seen it. Once you click on here then you will actually be able to see what you are doing. At the top, it is a style inner bevel, so let us say we want to do that depth. We want to pull it a little bit deeper as you notice as you pull deeper, say you will pull deeper of a 3 dimensional there we go, soften that just a little bit and has more of little bit of glow and then do a contour. On the contour what it does is you can select here and you can look at each one of it, it just slightly changes the way the 3 dimensional object goes. So, in this one, we are going to go with more smooth. So, we are going to stay with that one, hit the okay button and you are done. "
