There are a few things to keep in mind when designing in Photoshop. First, make sure the document size is set correctly. The dimensions should be in pixels, and the resolution should be set to 72 pixels/inch. Second, when creating text, always use the “Type” tool (not the “Text” tool).

This will ensure that your text is properly vectorized and can be exported as an HTML file later on. Finally, when adding colors to your design, use the “Hex” color mode. This will ensure that your colors are web-safe and will display correctly on all devices.

There are a lot of features and options available in Photoshop, and it can be easy to get overwhelmed or lost if you don’t know what you’re doing. If you’re not sure about something, take some time to look up tutorials or ask for help from someone who knows more about the program.

2. Be careful with your fonts. Fonts can make or break a design, and it’s easy to get carried away with them in Photoshop. Make sure that you use fonts that are legible and appropriate for the project you’re working on.
