hmmmmmmmm well . . .

I've never done this before but I've upgraded to photoshop CS3

Maddie (purple_butterbear) wanted a tut for this so here I am

2-72.jpg

STEP 1

Take your selected picture and select all of it (ctrl+A)

STEP 2

Open a new layer box (ctrl+N) and then paste your image (ctrl+V) and crop it to the size you would like it.

STEP 3

Here we go. Now were going to brighten your image (Image>Adjustments>brighten/contrast) and brighten it to whatever you feel comfortable with, I done mine all the way.

STEP 4

Now go to (Layer>New fill layer>Solid colour) and exclusion it with an opacity of %60 with the following colour #0e2eab.

STEP 5

Now were going to change the exposure so go to (Image>adjustments>exposure) and then set the following to

Exposure +1.65

Offset -0.2529

Gamma Correction 1.02

STEP 6

Now were going to add another colour so go to (Layer>New fill colour>Solid colour) and exposure it to %25 and fill it with this colour #171196.

STEP 7

Now another color so go to (Layer>New fill colour>Solid colour) and lighten it to %20 with the colour #ffffff.

STEP 8

Now take this texture

texture_beginning.jpg

and paste (ctrl+V) it and set the blend mode to multiply with the opacity at %50.

STEP 9

Now take this texture

gradient-1.jpg

and overlay it with the opacity at %50.

STEP 10

NOW...this is very important . . .

Duplicate the texture from STEP 8 (ctrl+J) and set the blend mode on multiply with an opacity of %20 BUT making sure the texture from STEP 9 is still the top layer!

STEP 11

FINALLY add you lighting by going to (filter>render>lighting effects) and play around with it a bit until you are satisfied with your lighting effect and you have it where you want it to be.

Add you text if you want any and then that is it . . .

YOUR DONE!

Would love to see some icons made . . .

Have fun guys
