Step Five: Drag the new gradient
from the Gradients panel onto the
image. Use the menu at the top
of the Layers panel to change the
Gradient Fill layer’s blend mode to
Overlay and lower the Opacity set-
ting to 85%.
As you can see, gradients are
incredibly useful. And by using the
Gradients panel, Photoshop adds
the gradient on a layer of its own,
which preserves the object, text, or
photo to which you’re applying it.
Until next time, may the creative
force be with you all! n
