How is it you guys do gloss effects in PS? Ive seen the wA PSD obviously, but how exactly do I go about creating the effect?

I havn't used gloss in a while, but when I do: 1) Highlight the area you want to make glossy with a marquee. (Round or rectangular depending on what shape you want it to have) 2) Take the gradient tool [FFFFFF works best] and cover the marquee area with 1 gradient [with an opacity of 15 - 30 I think] <--Change opacity if it doesn't look right. It's simple imo. Hope this helps ya.  |

The wA psd and the other psds I have up are basically how I do gloss. Just lots of layers with white and different layer styles.

Square marquee with white set to 20% opacity.. (20 always looks right  ) |
