5. Adding numbers, score lines and bar lines (continued)

Work in the lines and numbers layer, on top of all the other layers [A].

b. Score Lines.

Use Line Tool for the score lines between individual images. [N on the keyboard in Adobe Photoshop 3.0; in Adobe Photoshop 5.0, Line Tool is the alternative selection under the Pencil Tool (N)]. Double click on the Tool to get Line Tool options.

• For white lines make white the foreground color (using the Foreground/Background color feature under the Toolbar) [B].
• Use 6 pixel line for score lines [C].
• Turn off anti-alias function- this gives crisp edge lines [D].
• Draw lines, holding down shift key to constrain lines to vertical or horizontal [E].
