CoffeeShop Facebook Profile Templates!


I don't know what is going on, but I am really inspired to create on the computer lately.  Right now the kids are watching some Mighty Machines videos and I am playing on the computer.  It is a rainy day and they have the week off from homeschool, so I decided to throw together a few projects for my blog before Thanksgiving and the out-of-town family arrive.

I have had so many people request Facebook profile templates, so I made three for today's post.  I just replaced my own profile picture using one of them.  They are 180 x 500px layered .psd files with clipping masks.  You can add your images using my Group It action and the background color is totally adjustable.  I also have a few clipping masks tutorials.

My images are highlighted in blue in the screenshot below.  Just group your images above their clipping masks and Ctrl-T them to fit.  You can also change the color of the background texture by clicking on Background Texture Color.  If you want a solid color background just turn off the texture layer and then set the Background Texture Color layer to Normal blending mode.

You can also change the color of the label by turning on the label color layer and clicking it to adjust.

Add your text and logo to the label and you are good to go!  I hope you enjoy playing with these.  And if I don't get on the computer before then, Happy Thanksgiving to everyone!!!!

  6. Do you have a tutorial that explains how to use clipping masks? Or do you know where I can find one? I have PS cs4 and I am a total newbie so I have no idea what I'm doing with this. :)

  12. Thank you everyone! And Wendy, this is tiny, only 150 px wide so you can't print it too large.
