Photoshop F.A.Q (Last Updated: 2024 Nov 13 3:02 pm)
Our mission is to provide an open community and unique environment where anyone interested in learning more about Adobe Photoshop can share their experience and knowledge, post their work for review and critique by their peers, and learn new techniques while developing the skills that allow each individual to realize their own unique artistic vision. We do not limit this forum to any style of work, and we strongly encourage people of all levels and interests to participate.

You don't need a plug-in to create that effect. If you play around with the Style Effects, you can achieve that look. See the pink light underneath the bottom heart? That's Drop Shadow, but not set at Multiply; it's set at either Screen or Soft Light, and with the color pink, not black. Not quite sure how to make the shadow darker on the edges, but I'll bet if you created a new layer with the drop shadow effect and added some style effects to the resulting new layer, you can get that darker edge. As for the hearts themselves, the darker edges can be done with Inner Glow ... set at Multiply instead of Screen, with some shade of pink. The highlight sheen at the top of the hearts is Bevel and Emboss, with the Curves and all the other options messed around with. Um ... I'm doing this all at the top of my head, so I can't give you exact settings, but if you just play around with the Style Effects, you should be able to recreate that image. One of the Wow! Photoshop books even has a collection of Photoshop Styles you can load, and some of them do exactly what that Dreamsuite gel plug-in has done. Wish I had that collection of styles myself.

You might find a style at the Adobe Exchange that you could use for the hearts..
