ABSTRACT

Drag these color sliders and observe the changes that occur in your image. Create bright highlights with detail and deep shadows with detail for maximum tonal impact. Be careful not to move the color stops too close together as banding or ‘posterization’ will occur in the image. Choose desaturated colors from the Color Picker (less than 40%) to keep the effects reasonably subtle. Once you have created the perfect gradient you can give it a name and save it by clicking on the New button. This gradient will now appear in the gradient presets for quick access.
