Importing Custom Images into Eagle

Contributors: Shawn Hymel

Resources and Going Further

Try playing with some of the layers in Eagle to make interesting effects in your artwork! For example, in the badger face from the Introduction, the face is on the tPlace (top silk) layer, but the eyes are on the Top (top copper) layer. When the boards are produced, the face is white, but the eyes come out silver, copper, or gold colored (depending on the finish used).
