Importing assets

Background layer

The Background layer contains the full-color menu background, including all button
graphics and text:

If you create artwork using multiple layers, remember to merge those layers into the
Background layer.

The “Background” layer name must not be italicized in the Photoshop Layers window.

If the Background layer name is italicized:

1. Double-click the layer name in the Layers window. The New Layer window opens.

2. Change the Name to Background.

3. Click OK.
