Website Panel

Panel 9
Its difficult to describe what this is. I’ve called it a panel. Whatever you call it, its the sort of thing you would use in a website perhaps to contain your navigation controls.

Start off with a shape. Use your custom tool to create the shape below (The corners are at radius 20 px). Fill it with the color code: #D9D9D9. Rename the layer “base”

Panel 1

Add in the following properties to this layer’s layer style:

Panel 2

Panel 3

Panel 4

The Stroke color code is #949494

Create a new shape above the ‘base’ layer.

Panel 5

Add in all of the same layer style to this layer except for the drop shadow. Click on Gradient Overlay, check off ‘Reverse’ beside the gradient.

Panel 6

Add in a circle shape above the 2 layers. Use the same layer properties as the layer above, but make the gradient slightly darker and do not reverse the gradient.

Panel 7

You can add in a logo and arrow to the circle button to dress it up.

Panel 8

You can also add in layer styles to the second layer to make it look more realistic or to add more color to your graphic.
