Hello,
I am new and read some nice posts here so I thought maybe give it a try and ask. For my brother's business I created a logo. I used the vistaprint template to make a business card. Since the card itself should be black, I used a black background layer that I toggled invisible when I exported the png for printing. I created kind of a mirror effect by duplicating the logo layer and making it half transparent, and a soft glow around one element of the logo using gaussian blur. These two effects totally get lost when I do not export the png without the black background layer. The half transparent mirror layer is almost invisible without it, same with the halo effect. I tried checking all the options for export so nothing gets lost but it did not help.
I could just export with the black layer but this will be a problem when we make his work shirts. Does someone know what's going on there and help me please?
Kind regards,
Nio
