Downloadable Glossy Photoshop Button

There is a Hue/Saturation adjustment layer which makes it easy to change the color of the button. Just double click the layer thumbnail and adjust the settings until you get the color you want. The text layer can easily be changed as well since the inset effect is created using a Bevel and Emboss layer style.

Below are three examples of how the button can be customized by quickly adjusting the hue and altering the text:

Eugene Hutz - Gogol Bordello

Here's my take on Eugene Hutz, the lead singer for the super awesome gypsy punk rock band Gogol Bordello. The sketch was done with a brown Crayola marker and colored in Photoshop.

Here's a video of the band on Letterman. I had never heard of them until I happened to catch this performance late one night when nothing else was on TV. I'm glad I did. I saw them live at First Ave in Minneapolis and they were amazing.
