*** Creating an Music layout for web ***


Hello my friends

I will show you how to create a rock band layout ( music layout )

As usual i will start with a new document with the following sizes 760x770 pixels
For the background color i will choose white, then create another layer right above the background layer, and fill it with black

With BRUSH TOOL i will add some great brushes



You can download a great set of Grunge border brushes from
Free Photoshop Brushes » Grunge border brushes

I will choose a orange color #f26826, and with the BRUSH TOOL, i will add the brush like in the following image



Now we have to rotate the brush. the easy way is to flip the brush. After i will change the brush angle, i will choose another color #09b0f0



You can repeat the steps from above, as many times as you want. be sure you place some nice grunge border brushes like in the following image:



I will select the layer right above the background layer, and with Eraser TOOL



i will delete the margins with the following brush



and with this brush selected i will start deleting the margins of the black layer



and this is my result so far



With the same grunge brush i have deleted the other parts of the layout



Now i will create some buttons with RECTANGLE TOOL



and i will create a small rectangle with the following layer styles

DROP SHADOW :



INNER SHADOW :



BEVEL AND EMBOSS:


COLOR OVERLAY:


STROKE:


At the end you will have something like this



I will grab ERASER TOOL and i will load the following brush Orange vector brush**brush-mania.com



After you select this brush, please press on the " [ " until you have a small brush
and when you are happy with the size of the brush, you can delete some random parts of your button ( please note that you need to rasterize the shape first - you can do that by right clicking on the layer with button , and from the menu you can choose " rasterize shape "



With this layer selected, press on CTRL+J a few times ( this shortcut will duplicate the layer)



I will download another set of brushes Dirty gray brushes**brush-mania.com and i will load this brush in photoshop

after that i will create a new layer ( press CTRL+SHIFT+ALT+N ), and with the following brush



i will add some grunge drawings under my buttons ( i have used the following color #5b5b5b )



From the same set of brushes, i have selected another brush, and i have used also another color #6b0d10



Here is my result



Now i will add a stock image from my personal collection



I will duplicate this layer a few times, then i will change the scale of the image, and i will place it like in the following image



With brush tool, i will add another details on the left side of the layout



Now i will add another image from my stock collection. i will use a microphone



With HORIZONTAL TYPE TOOL



I will add some text:



Now from the same great set of brushes, i will choose the following brush



And i will create a new layer, and with brush tool, i will add the drawings like in the following image



And voila. This is my final result. I hope you like it, and i will wait for you tomorrow for a new tutorial
