Adding a Layer Style

Adding a Layer Style

- Our filters may be complete. We can still of course add regular layer styles to it. Let's move it over to the side and let's add an Inner Glow. Now, by default the layer style Inner Glow is added to the edge of the layer. Let's change that so it applies to the center and now let's adjust the size of it, and as we make the size larger rather counterintuitively, the glow gets smaller. Somewhat like that looks rather good to me, but I think we could reduce the opacity of this somewhat until round about the 40% mark. We get a nice bit of glow in the middle. Here's how it looks without it and here it is with it. It just adds a little bit of boost to this image, and there is the Inner Glow listed with this smart object along with all of those smart filters. Of course, we can always hide any of these smart filters, and indeed that Inner Glow, and we have the flexibility to make as many changes as we want to this image.
