| Here's a real simple, quick and easy interface button you can make with PhotoFiltre. In order to complete this tutorial you will need
the Gravure Filter and the RGB Fantasy Filter. You can download them both for free on the
PhotoFiltre Web Site. Just click on the Plug-ins Link
to the left. Once you have them installed you can access them from the Filter / Plug-in menu or your plug-in tool bar if you have them set
up there. RGB Fantasy is a Plug-in I use quite often so you may want to download it even if this tutorial is of no interest to you. |

if you plan on making more than one button. |
