In this tutorial we will discuss how to make front page for assignments and
projects by using Adobe Photoshop. Most of the students use MS Word to make
front page but it does not present uniqueness. Adobe Photoshop can give your
assignments and projects more professional look.
There are many versions of Adobe Photoshop available in market like Adobe
Photoshop CS, Adobe Photoshop CS2, Adobe Photoshop CS3, Adobe Photoshop
CS4 etc, I will recommend you to install Adobe Photoshop CS version in your PC.
Please use registered version because by using unregistered version you won’t be
able to use some features….
Step 1 :-
OR
Press Ctrl + N, you will see a new window just like an image given below :
Step 2 :-
Now you have to choose the image size , in assignments the recommended size is
A4 . So you have to choose A4 from Preset option. Here one thing to be noticed
that some students use Legal size in their assignments so if you using Legal in your
complete project than you should choose Legal however A4 is recommended and I
will use A4 in this tutorial, so after pressing Ctrl + N, choose Image size from
Preset ( A4 ) just like in the picture given below :
Step 3 :-
After these steps you will get A4 size to continue your work.
Step 4 :-
Apply Gradient on your layer. Go to Gradient Icon ( ) given at left side . When
you click on Gradient Icon you will see the drop down option as marked in red
rectangle ( See figure below )
First click on Icon mentioned with the help of arrow and than you will see the drop
down menu as rectangle in red.
Step 5 :-
Now click on drop down menu list (marked in red rectangle, see picture in step 4 ).
You will see number of Gradients pattern in that list (just like shown in figure
given below), Choose the style according to your taste. I will use the one Gradient
Style from “Noise pattern”. You may choose what you like.
Step 6 :
I selected the style number 11 from “Noise Pattern” ( Noise Pattern is listed in drop
down menu list ). Now it’s the time to apply Gradient on your layer. After
selection of style, simply click and drag your cursor over white blank image. See
what I did? (Have a look on figure given below)
Hold Left click and drag the cursor in the same pattern like I mentioned above,
your gradient style will apply on blank image, as shown below :

Now you applied Gradient on your layer, which shows that background for your
page has been designed, now you have to use text tool to write the name of your
Project, Your group members name & all those which you want to.
Note : If you do not like any Gradient style after applying, you may Undo by
pressing Ctrl+Z

which are being carried out while working on Adobeshop, you may Undo your
work from that option too, see image given below to Undo your steps

When you wrote text and make changes in Fonts or Size, now you can also use “
Style “ option from Right menu bar, which makes your text more attractive, many
styles are given in this option, simply click on style and choose what suits you …
To apply styles on your text, choose the styles from these options
Step 10 :
I applied one style from these options and now my text will look like in this pattern
.
Here one thing keep in mind that when you do apply style to your text, you can
make it more attractive by applying shadow effect or number of changes can also
be made, You can modify it from the options marked in Red color ..
Step 11 :-
Now Select move (V) tool to place your text at the desired position on page.
Step 12 :

remaining text in given figure :
Step 13 :
Now we will use “ Brush “ tool to make Front page more decorative.
( Usage of Brush tool is to garnish your page, Brush tool can add 50% beauty on
your page )
Use Brush on your layer. Go to Brush Icon given at left side. When you click on
Brush Icon you will see the drop down option as marked in red rectangle
First click on Icon mentioned by arrow, than you will see the drop down menu
which I marked in Red rectangle ( See above figure )

When you click on Drop down menu ( Brush Tool ), you can see number of
Brushes listed in that list, like in the image given below:

times in this picture:
Notes :-
You may Load Gradients and Brushes according to your choice.To Load
Gradients and Brushes from your PC, you need to download them from any
website ( Use Google to search for them ). Use the Load Gradients and Load
Brushes option to load new one ( This option is listed in Drop down menu
list )
