Hey J…

I’ve been scouring the net trying to find a way to simply add a chrome effect to regular lines created in photoshop. All I can find though is how to do it to text… not to segments made using the “line tool” – can u please help? OR.. do you know of a site that might have what im looking for? Any help is greatly appreciated.
