Hiya

I once saw a tutorial (Ithink it may have been in create magazine) on how to make those lovely macintosh style liquid looking buttons. I have somehow lost the article and I wondered if anybody could point me in the right direction to find a similar tutorial?

Many thanks

I think there was one on the Screaming Banana site which seems to be gone but there are lots of tutorials for this and also a few actions. Check out the Adobe Studio Exchange.

Here’s Scott Kelby’s tutorial:

This one adds an interesting twist, live refraction of objects underneath the button.
