Gradient Tool Effects!

The gradient tool is great for lighting effects.... like light beams.....



Here's one way to make them...

First, the tool and it's control panel....




Make a selection in the shape you want the beam.....


Fill the selection with a gradient (gradient is solid color to transparent!)


Change the LAYER MODE for the beam to OVERLAY, or SCREEN to make it glow!


Which beam is the fake?
