*What are Layer Styles?
- - -
Layer styles are special effects that can be quickly and easily applied to individual layers in Photoshop to drastically change the appearance of something in very little time. They can be preset, customized, or even saved and used for later.

One of the useful properties of Layer Styles are there relationship to the layer contents. Since the style is actually a separate entity that is just linked to the layer, it will continually update itself as a layers contents are edited or moved. Furthermore, the effects can easily be adjusted after applying them, making them non-destructive in nature.

*How to Install Styles to Photoshop
- - -
Installing Layer Styles is actually just like Installing Brushes and Custom Shapes. Of course, the first thing you’ll need to do is actually download a Layer Style to use such as this torrent.

From Photoshop, find your Styles Palette, and select it. If it’s not visible, go to Window > Styles.

At the top right of the palette, there is an arrow pointing to the right. Click on this arrow to bring up a menu. From this menu, select Load Styles.

Now, simply browse to wherever you saved your styles, and load them. You’ll see them populate the Styles Palette, and can then apply them as you would any other Style preset.
