going from
this to this:
*using PSP 8*
PLEASE DON'T COPY THIS ICON, USE THE STEPS TO CREATE SOMETHING THAT IS YOUR OWN; THAT'S MAKES IT MORE FUN, ANYWAY :)
1. First I took
this picture from
Emmy-Rossum.net and cropped it down to a 100x100 base:
2. Then I duplicated that base layer once and set that layer to MULTIPLY. OPACITY 100 then duplicated that layer 3 more times and set them all to SCREEN. OPACITY 100 except the top-most one which I set to OPACITY 50. My layers look like this:
3. I then duplicated the base layer once more, moved it above the top screened layer, set it to SOFT LIGHT. OPACITY 100 and desaturated it (Shift+H > saturation to -100). I now have this:
4. Then I created a New Adjustment Layer (Layers > New Adjustment Layer > Hue/Saturation/Lightness) and set the Saturation to -35:
I now have this:
5. Then I took
this light texture by
teh_indy and set it to SCREEN. OPACITY 100.
6. I then took the text tool and typed 3 x's:
using these settings and the color white (#FFFFFF):
7. Then I used this text brush by
ohpaintbrush also in white and set it to LIGHTEN. OPACITY 100.

8. THEN I selected the Preset Shape Tool (the tool that's used to make boxes, lol) and made a white border around the parimeter of the icon. My properties look like this:
9. And I'm done :) Here's my result:
**Opacities for layers may vary depending upon your image; don't be afraid to experiment!**
I hope this helps someone, LOL
Please lemme know what you all thought of this :)
