Digital Scrapbooking with Paint Shop Pro 9
PSP9 Tutorial: Make Gold Photo Corners
I love the look of real metal on my layouts. These gold photo corners are really easy to make in Paint Shop Pro 9. Here's how:
1.) Create a new image.
- Width: 600 pixels
Height: 600 pixels
Resolution 200 dpi
Raster background
16 million color depth
Transparent
4.) Image ->Rotate -> Free Rotate -> 45 degrees, left
5.) Cut the image in half by selecting a square right down the middle and hitting your delete key.
6.) Image ->Rotate -> Free Rotate -> 45 degrees, right
7.) Select a square in the middle, taking off a little chunk by hitting the delete key.
8.) Select your shape and move it so you can fit all four of the corners on your image.
9.) Copy and paste it as a new image. Flip it, mirror it (Image ->Flip) and copy it back to the original until you have all four corners. This will insure correct lighting on your layouts.
10.) Effects -> 3D Effects -> Inner Bevel using the variables shown below. The color is #ffffc0.
11.) Save as a png. Enjoy!
