How do you get your gradients ?

how do you make your gradients ?

because Im trying to make some new ones because I only have like 15 and I have overused them

What do you mean how do you make them? theres not really that much to them. if you apply a gradient you can double click the little preview bar in the blending options and edit the gradients and save them.

From personal experience, don't use gradients unless very,very basic. I find that creating the desired effect using multiple layers creates a more unique, individual touch, one the client is most times happy with

Gradients don't need to be for web2.0 websites if thats what you are implying. look at the talk freelance logo in the top left corner the pen and paint brush have multiple gradients. Without those gradients it would look very basic (or not as cool )

How do you only have 15? You can make them in any graphics program.

I don't have any saved. I just you know, take the little bucket icon and drag it over a certain area. It's not that hard. :P

Black-white is the only one I use though.

hm i have quite alot but i normally add some more effects to that gradient layer to make it better

shift+g!

people save gradients?

That's what I was thinking, why save a gradient, select your colours, and use the gradient tool..not hard.

I never save my gradients. I also just select my colours and use the gradient tool.
