flip Posted November 4, 2009 Share Posted November 4, 2009 I wouldn't follow that tutorial if I were you. It doesn't turn out as well as some other glass button tuts out there. http://searchpaint.net Quote Gallery Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ego Eram Reputo Posted November 4, 2009 Share Posted November 4, 2009 Um... there's only one image there. The junction between D and E is brighter - I assume that is what the OP means by "lighter". If this is the case then Sarkut's link to the gradient tool is the one to look at. In particular the radial gradients.

007 Nab Posted November 5, 2009 Share Posted November 5, 2009 I'm not so sure it's a gradient tool job - the logo doesn't have a straight or radial fade, so a new layer must be used instead. So, I would: Open your image Add a new layer :AddNewLayer: and name it Highlight Fill Highlight with white :PaintBucketTool: Press F4 (to get to the layer adjustments dialog) and lower the layer's opacity so that the white becomes gray-ish Then cut out everything you don't want from the new Highlight layer using the lasso tool :LassoTool: / or Cutting Out Images Tutorial or Alpha Masking (search any one of these terms to learn more about hem) And that should do the trick.

Rubrica Posted November 5, 2009 Share Posted November 5, 2009 Actually, the way I read it s/he was asking how to make a glossy highlight as seen in the image. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Axle Posted November 5, 2009 Share Posted November 5, 2009 make a layer on top and use WHITE to make a line running from edge to edge on the image and make it curved using the nubs then draw lines to join that to the edges of the image and get the paint bucket tool, set the number thingy in just above the image to 65 and fill in the left half then go to the layers window and go to the top layer's properties and make it translucent to the degree you want, hope i helped.
