Step three:
  • Now that we have a case to work with, lets start with the screen. The screen is the best feature to add first because it will determine the space for each side of the case. I stated earlier that the size of the case is 430 px x 250 px so I created the screen in 290 px x 180 px, about 75% smaller than the case.
  • The screen in this tutorial is a print screen of my window. It's very simple, a solid color background and custom icons for each programs. To insert a screen in your UMPC, create a new 290 px x 180 px canvas and insert the picture you want to appear on the screen. Copy the canvas and paste into your UMPC case.
  • Add the layer styles below.
  • Duplicate the screen layer but clear the layer styles by going to Layer > Layer style > Clear layer style.
  • Go to Filter > Blur > Gaussian blur > radius 2.5 px.
  • Set the blending mode to Linear Dodge.
