Before you start working on your quote, you have to open up the readme file in order for everything to work properly. So simply double click on it. And when it opens up, you will see links used inside of this course for the free fonts. So simply click on this link, click Allow, and then it will take you to the font page. These are Google Fonts which are free for personal and commercial usage. So simply download and install them on your machine like you usually do with any font.
And right below that we have link for the unsplash which are free images, which you can use again, for both personal and commercial projects. It's important that you install these fonts on your computer in order for everything to work properly. And once you've done that, we can head back over to our Photoshop. It doesn't matter which version of Photoshop you have, as long as it's higher than Photoshop CS five, for example. So everything from CSS six upwards, it will work well for this course. So first things first, you can click right here where it says file, then new.
And we can create our document. So we can click 1080 by 1080. And make sure you have pixels selected right here. Press OK. And this square format is for the Instagram posts. And if you want to create same quote for Instagram stories, head over to file new. And then instead of 1080 for the height, type in 1920, because that is the dimension for the Instagram stories, and then press OK. Now you have this lock inside of your Layers panel, click on it to unlock this layer.
Double click on it and type in BG, which is shorter for background. Press Enter. And we can do the same for our Instagram posts. So click on the lock. They'll click right Type in VG presenter. And once again look is simply there to make sure that you cannot move the layer but because we want to move this layer when we started designing our quote, you might want to unlock that layer so that you don't run into some problems later on.
So in the next video, we are going to start designing our quote and I'm going to show you how you can use these fonts and images that I mentioned as well as some other elements inside of Photoshop.
