Question
Hello,

I am new in Photoshop, and even have no tit installed on PC. Iuse it on public PC where Photoshop 7 installed. What I need is create two buttons and properly align it(horizontally), add text, add color. Sure, this is something simple, but most tutorials cover various advanced buttons 'mac' style, with shadow, etc. What I need will be rectangles, with text, and will be used for "hot spot" on bitmap(autorun.) So I have bitmap image, I need create and add there 2 buttons. Could you show detailed steps, step by step what need be done, include layers, and other things?

Thank you


Answer
Alex,
this could be done in many ways,
one way which this could be done is by:
-use the rectanglar Marquee to draw a rectangle and fill it
with color,
-for the second box: go to the layer panel Right Click to duplicate the layer,
-use the arrow key to align the box,
-Text:
Click on the text tool to insert the Text, Click on the select tool, Click on the text tool to insert the Text.
this will guide through the step by step,

Regards,
john
