Top Free Apps for the Mac 2016
one of Five Mac Apps You Should Be Using!
Hey everyone in today's video I'm going to talk about in art application that
can create logos application icons and buttons very quickly and easily now only
discovered this particular applicationcalled our texts too and it's made by
Belight software this year but after I used it I found it to be seamless it's
so easy to use you could design a logo or even just a
header for a brochure or even a simple application icon in like literally in a few minutes and you don't
really have to be a designer to be able to do it so if you are a developer and you need an app icon or if
you're doing FileMaker databases and you want to make
buttons for that it worked for that
logos brochure or headers anything so let's get started and show you how this thing
works and don't forget I will leave a little
link so that you'll be able to download
from the App Store so once you download
it you'll see this is the application
icon here if you're if it's already in
your Applications folder because you
downloaded from the App Store that's
fine if you go right to the belight
website and you download a free copy you can just drag it into your Applications
folder to install and then open it up so once you have it opens up and I do over
here let's just show you it'll start off
by opening up to this window once it
opens to this window you could actually
closed in and just go to file template
gallery here is where you can actually
choose a pre template for you to use and
it has all these different elements that
you can use and some of them are buttons
some of them are logos we're going to
pick a logo and actually redo it so I'm
gonna pick this logo here called gold
I'm going to click Choose and it's going
to open up as you can see the choices of
the different colors are right here so I
wanted to make it pink or orange and
there's quite a few blue let's say and
then if you go down to this window over
here you see the word gold you click on
it
you actually just can retype it so if I
wanted to type Mac that's all there is
to it and then I close it
and boom I have a logo now to export
this once you're finished with that all
you have to do is go down here and you
can either bring it to the clipboard and
use it to kind of paste into Word or
Adobe InDesign Photoshop or you can
share it and they have all of these
opportunities to share it into your
photos
put it in your messages use it on
Twitter or Facebook and over here you
can also save it as a file that you can
actually edit and place into various
documents so if you wanted to know how I
do the FileMaker I usually just save it
to a file and then I drag the file right
into FileMaker by inserting it if you
can use this also your web pages if
you're using it for design element you
can make it as a clipboard item or you
can make it as a file it's up to you now
besides having these different items
over here it also has a couple of items
here so you can change the texture so
you can switch around textures here and
also you can just do it with a color so
there's lots of options that you can do
and I have to say that the gold one
looks pretty awesome I like that one
there's also different styles so let's
say you liked something in this area
let's pick this one which says pink and
if you double click on that and we typed
the word Mac tips you can fit in there
now at this point they have kerning they
have line spacing care you have
additional shapes icons so a whole bunch
of things that you can do here you can
customize something yourself so they
have that area as well and let's take a
look at what do you do if things are
oversized right so as you can see over
here you have this to kind of bring down
just kind of the overall page size so
that you can see where you can grab this in to make
