1. 1st 30 minutes of class are CLEAN UP TIME--
Use your time wisely and finish up any tasks you have left like:
a. Finish Mag Cover- b.Finish Photo Collage C. Put all of your work into your website under MY WORK heading ..writing a one paragraph reflection about what you made, and what you learned.

To get to this palette- go to LAYER>LAYER STYLES on the top menu bar
Create a new Photoshop document and in addition to the default background layer, create a new line of text. In the Layers Palette, right click the name of the layer you want to add effects to and click "Blending Options..." to bring up the Layer Style dialog box (you can also double click the name of the layer in the Layers Palette).

We will go over each section of the Layer Styles dialog box in the latter parts of this guide, right now, we are just getting acquainted with how they are applied.

You will notice that once you add a layer style to your layer, a list of effects that are being used shows up in the layers palette. You can show/hide each of the effects by clicking the eyeball icon next to the name of each effect. This allows you to quickly hide a specific effect, while keeping the settings intact in case you want to turn it back on.

Tips And Tricks For BeginnersThere are a few tricks to learn when becoming proficient with layer styles that only come with experience, unless of course you are reading this guide.

1. Layer styles cannot be added to locked layers. You may have created a new document, selected the background layer, and clicked a layer style preset, only to see a whole bunch of nothing happening. It is because the background layer is locked. You cannot add new layer styles to locked layers. You can, however, add layer styles to a layer prior to locking it to prevent editing of that layer. You can then unlock it later if you decide to change the settings of your layer style later.
2. You can increase the size of the thumbnails in the Styles Palette by opening the Styles Palette dropdown menu and toggling the display type between Text Only, Small Thumbnail, Large Thumbnail, Small List, and Large List.
3. Most layer styles are created to look their best on bolder fonts and/or at larger sizes. If you apply a style you found online and are unhappy with how it looks, you might want to try a different font or a larger text size.
4. Layer styles themselves can be resized, so if you find a layer style that looks good at a certain size but want to shrink your text, you can resize the effect to match any size of text. Simply right click the list of effects that are applied to the layer in the Layers Palette and click "Scale Effects". You can then scale your effects using a percentage.
5. You can copy and paste styles between layers in the same document as well as between layers in different documents. Right click the name of the layer in the Layers Palette and click "Copy Layer Style", then on another layer, right click again and select "Paste Layer Style".
6. You can hide the layer contents while showing only the effects. Select the layer in the Layers Palette and change the Fill, located at the top of the Layers Palette, to 0%. You can then apply effects without the layer itself showing up. This is how many glass and other advanced effects are created.
