How do you make your deviantart buttons I wanna make some? T_T

this is my 3rd time writing all of this cuz i encountered some bugs on mobile sooooo now im on laptop XD

ty for the ask!! :3 i use ibispaint x to make my buttons. heres a tutorial:

the canvas size is 386 x 56

you fill the whole canvas with a solid color, and (while using the Symmetry ruler/tool) you smooth the edges using an eraser.

add a new layer above the one with the solid color, then add a black border around it

for the rest of the steps, always have the layers Clipping unto the solid color background, so that the additions dont go past the black border

for the shine, turn on the Ruler tool and put a shine in the middle of the button. use the Airbrush eraser to erase a bit of the top.

set the opacity to 40%-30%

draw 1 thin slanted white line, then copy and paste it until it fills the whole background. then set the opacity to 10%

to make the solid colored background more interesting, i use the Pavement image thats provided for free by ibispaint.

i set the Blending Mode to Color Burn and adjust the opacity until it looks nice for the color im using

then boom! this is the base i use for all of my buttons, i just change the color and the opacity of the Pavement texture to whatever i want

add text and a transparent image underneath the shine and the slanted lines, and hooray you have a button!!! remember to save it as a transparent image :3

you can use whatever font, but i use the "Retro Gaming" font
