This is a quick, very basic run through on how to customise your overlay PSD in Photoshop.
The file used in this video comes from our Skeleton Key overlay, but the instructions are applicable to any of our downloads.
If you’re interested in taking the DIY approach, a link to download a free trial of Photoshop follows, just please don’t use GIMP, it’s trash!

With over 150 stream graphics available, this can all get a little overwhelming. Perhaps you don't know your Twitch overlays from your stream alerts, or what exactly Professional Customisation means on our stream design pages. Well, take a look at our guides section.
My name's Lou and since 2014 I've designed & maintained everything you see, from website to stream overlays. Twitch Overlay isn't impossibly large teams with zero accountability - any order or contact you make, you're talking to me and me alone so feel free to get in touch.
Our newsletter is quite literally just an excuse for us to give away paid content. Over the past year we've given away VX Pro Chroma, Razor Purple, and Carbon stream overlays (each worth between $10-12) simply as a thanks for being subscribed. And when we're not doing that we're putting exclusive discounts in there, so generally it's a win-win.
If your stream is picking up a little momentum and you're looking into ways to monetize, consider giving our affiliate program a try. The minimum requirements to join are very fair, and as you grow and refer more people our way, we'll bump up your cut! Plus once you become a preferred affiliate you can request any overlay at no cost.
