Photoshop :: How Do I Make A Glass / Glossy Image Like This?
Nov 13, 2005
i'm using Photoshop CS, and looking for a tutorial on how to make a glossy image like the orange/yellow-ish one in the banner/header of this site: http://www.mariocarboni.com/
i've seen all sorts of "create a glossy orb" tutorials.. but those are all for circular shapes.. and most of the "glossy button" tutorials i've seen have a rather 'straight' reflection line, or they just look silly.
can anybody tell me how to create this glossy/glass texture on a rectangluar shape with that "realistic" reflection?
I wanted to make text/image glossy in paint.net.so i followed procedure given in this link : URL...
I followed exactly as described on page2-page5.everything goes exactly like mentioned ,except for last page(5) instruction ,which says " When the positioning of the selection looks correct, go to Edit > Erase Selection to delete the base of the gradient. You should now see that you have created a glossy text effect similar to that that you can see on the first page of this tutorial.
underlined part i just cant execute,because that link in paint.net software remains dead and i cant click it.
How do I make the the black/white glossy highlights (that are situated in the bottle) appear over the label to make the label look more realistic. In Photoshop I have the following layers:
background layer: the bottle layer over the bottle: the label
I think I should use gradients and the rectangular marquee perhaps but I have no clue. The main problem is to incorporate the shadows and highlights on the bottle into the label.
It is looking dated (to me), so I had been thinking about sprucing it up.
I decided I would remove the ugly text "jp2code", throw a transparent Glossy Button effect over it, and put my text on top of the glossy button as an Etched Glass effect.
So, I look up and start reading up on a couple of the better glossy button tutorials:
Making glass buttons, and Buttons (ymd:110331)
I have used them both before with great success, but this time proved difficult. Neither of them seems to have a good way to use a background image.
The best approach I found was to create a ymd button using a light gray background and setting the opacity down to 150 or so.
The end result looks no where near as nice as I had pictured in my head:
As you can see, it is very dark, does not look like a Glass Button, and I have not found a good Etched Glass effect.
How to brighten up the Glossy Button without washing out the background?
I'm working on a rendering of the building in photoshop and I want the glass in the windows to look like they are reflecting light and clouds, etc. Any suggestions??
I have an object that I need to photograph and make transparent for video purposes. How would I go about doing this with Photoshop?
I have a clean product shot against a white background, but I can also take one against black if that makes any difference. I tried searching the forums and the web but I think my wording was a bit too technical, and I was unable to find any information.
I need to find out how to make those Glass/Plastic looking tubes like the one on this sites homepage. Not the Forum main, but the Team Photoshop homepage.
I can Make them by hand, but time is of the essence, so shortcuts would be great.I know they're a little, um... Passe, but I think they'd can make them work on a project I need done TOMORROW.
How can i make frosted glass effect like a independent layer, which i can use with any picture. It should look like smart object with smart filter, but i won't convert every picture to smart object, because my psd document include many picture. Anyway i will be able to use this filter on any place for every picture.
I would like to make a glass button using the following tutorial:

How to complete the "distort circle" part of step 4? In other words, what tool would I use to move the top of the circle downwards?
Step 4: Copy and paste your original circle onto a third new layer. Fill it with an even lighter shade of your selected button color. Distort this circle by moving the top downward while leaving the size and position unchanged. You want the top of the new shape to be around halfway down the original circle.
Also, how can I turn the completed project into an orb/planet/pearl shape?
I have tried all possible “clear” appearances but my glass is not transparent as used to be in previous release. As you can see from video the left glass is clean and it was migrated from previous release untouched. It does not have any material assigned.I was trying to assign the Glass Material to the right one but cannot make it clear nevertheless property claims it 100 percent transparent.

Does anyone have any advice on how to warp a logo to fit on a shot glass? I can't seem to get it so that it will curve and the writing still look straight on the glass.
I'm trying to superimpose a label I made in Photoshop on an image of a glass bottle. I have to provide a front and rear view (so obviously the label will be reversed on the rear). The problem I'm having is with the back-side of the label. I'm trying to make it look like it's on the other side of the bottle and therefore require some kind of glass diffusion simulation.
I have an image that is going to serve as an online ad. I would like to have it look like a glass button like so many online ads do these days. However, most tutorials out there give instructions for how to do it with only text over the button. How would I do it if it's got three different sections to it? A photo on the top half and two colors on the left and right on the bottom?
I've got a vector image which I need to make look like it is on the front of a beer glass. (Raised glass effect which I plan to do in bevel and emboss)
My problem is, I want the vector image to look as if it is really on the glass, so I need it to curve with the pint glass on the bulbous lip that goes around near the top, Any idea how I can get PhotoShop to simulate this effect?
I need to make a material in my library that resembles acid etched glass. It basically looks like glass that has been sandblasted. I sell a lot of it and need to show it in my models.
Any way to put a detailed patten into my glass window.
I have created glass with the slate material editor, used specular 100, glossiness 80 in the Blinn dropdown. Ued mental ray. Looks good, very glassy. Now I want to put a pattern on the glass, like a silouette, only that it is also translucent, part of the glass, as though it was an "etched glass" pattern on the glass. Do i make the pattern into some kind of "mask"? and lay it over existing glass?
I need to remove the background image which is visible through a stained glass window and replace it with a soft plain background (simulating an ambient light)
I don't really want to artificially recreate the lead grid design and wondered what's the best technique (masking or otherwise) to preserve this detail? I am considering clone stamp, intelligent fill, masking etc. but first I need to create a source of the grid to use.
I have rendered this with a full dome and an HDRI texture / self illum. How could I put a background image (JPEG Still) behind the glass and make it appear outside?
