Patterns are a very good choice when you want to create a quick background or apply a nice texture to an object. However, creating your own patterns is tiresome work and most of the time, you don’t even get close to what you originally intended to do.
For this kind of matter, using vector patterns are a really good idea. So here’s how you can easily use them and save a lot of time, stress and tons of feedback from your clients.

In this Photoshop photo effects tutorial, we'll learn how to easily add a rainbow, and even a double rainbow, to a photo! As we'll see, Photoshop ships with a ready-made rainbow gradient for us to use. We'll learn where to find it and how to load it in. We'll also learn how to flip the order of the colors in a gradient, which we'll need to do to create a more realistic double rainbow effect. Of course, as with most photo effects, it helps if you start with the right type of image. In this case, a photo taken outdoors is a good place to start. If it happens to be a landscape photo taken after a rain storm, even better! We'll be using Photoshop CS5 throughout this tutorial but any recent version will work.
