Create a new document about 175 pixels x 50 pixels---large enough to have a nice sized working
area for one button. Add a new layer. Change your foreground color to black. Use the Rounded Rectangle Tool
and set the feather radius to "4." Draw a black rectangle around 150 x 50. | |
With your button layer selected, go to Style > Drop Shadow with the above settings,
Blend Mode > Multiply, Opacity, 35%, Distance > 0, Spread > 0, Size >5. | |
Go to Style > Gradient Overlay with the above settings. Double click on the gradient bar
to change the color stops. At the far left bottom stop, double click and change the color to #ffffff. Double
click anywhere at the bottom of the gradient bar and add another stop. Move it almost to the right side
bottom stop, double click and change the color to #cfcfcf. At the far right bottom stop, change the color
to #ffffff. | |
Layer Style > Stroke is next. Change the default color to #8b8b8b. Size at 1, Blend Mode >

The web button with the gradient and stroke applied. Create a new layer. Use the pencil
tool to draw a line from the near top of the button to the bottom. Lower the opacity of this
layer to 50%. | |
After the text is added, we'll finish it off with a arrow to the left of the
text. Use the polygon tool, set the sides to 3 in the Options Bar and use it to add the
navigation button. | |
