Creating Images with Photoshop

So far, we have only used Photoshop to improve an existing image. You can also use the program to create simple graphics for a web page "from scratch". You should be aware that there are plenty of places on the web giving away images (or nearly giving them away). It's nice, however, to know how to make some of them yourself.

Our goal here will be to create a simple "home" button like the one shown below (which won't take you home).

First we will make a basic button, then we will fill in the text.
