Using Fireworks production Vista, MSN, Microsoft-style luminous background lines tutorial

Fireworks | Vista | tutorial | MICROSOFT

It's like their background and the inside of the light

How do it! Microsoft has a lot of UI have the light .. All Microsoft unified style.
First of all, I stumbled upon a phenomenon:
A feather layer above it and put a real edge (or anti-aliasing) the layer (two itself color saturation is), visual fault is, feel the real boundary layer of the takeout some Shadow Mapping feather here on the floor.

Of course, feather what is the principle, I don't know because I haven't learned the art design. It's just I'm done after a look, found that didn't do projection have this effect, and stumbled upon this.

So do the procedure is:
1. first, the original, original those effect, in what I know, is how you can achieve it.
Actually, I think, a software, except for some special artistic effects in the function does not add. The other you can see the effect, as long as the heart, can all be made out. (Can Do people is so good, it's aesthetic, attentive and the degree. I'm good. Hey, hey)
The following is the analysis of original thinking:

2. Of course I'm not analysis after only, but look and think. Sometimes found it right, and change, what's missing, and add a Tim.
So the extra some additional effect.

3. besides, says some of the effect of the production process (in fact, you open the source file can see)
1) on the inside of the shadow.
I used the more cunning of practice, A vector graphics, one of the line to stay in the area, all the rest is the outside can't see. That way, we adjust the shadow of the angle, like make a line in the two ends of the tip.
Personal esteem inner shadow is also for this reason, seems better than vector gradient fill better control some.

2) edge feather.
A previous post, have said that when the edge feather to more than 50, can background and a perfect combination. And to make it a big head, like a curtain that effect. As long as the vector graphics switch-on to modify it can be.
3) light.
In the production process with glow, use less. Icon round to the back of the use, and one is a lighter lines. Nothing that, vector graphics background light some, saturation some, edge to feather 2 (To make it look not so prominent), light-emitting amount adjust it.
 

Some fine effect:
