Well, here's my first tutorial, hope it will be useful for you

how to go from this 
 to this

Made in Photoshop CS2, involves Selective Coloring

Ok, here's our base:


1. First, we need to duplicate it, and set the layer to Screen, 50%. This icon is not very dark, for some darker bases you may need to set the screen layer to 100% or even use two or more screen layers

 =>

2. Then, duplicate the base once again, drag this layer onto the top and set it to soft light, 100%, to make it more contrast


 =>

3. Now we need to make this icon more colourful. Create Selective Coloring Layer, set it to Normal, 100%
Reds: -100, 0, +100, +28
Yellows: -100, +28, -100+32
Neutrals: +81, -11, -31, +7


 =>

4. Create another Selective Coloring layer, set it, again, to Normal, 100%
Reds: -100, -20, +100, +10
Yellows: -100, +2, -30, +62
Neutrals: +40, -8, -22, 0


 =>

5. Don't you think this icon needs a frame or something like that? I've chosen a texture made by
girlboheme, and set it to Multiply, 100%:


 +
 =>

6. Well, we've almost finished! Now we need to make colours look smooth and blueish. For that, create a new Fill Layer, fill it with #0f0bad (in fact, any shade of dark blue will do), and set it to Exclusion, 22%


 =>

Here it is! If you want, you can stop here, but I think this icon still lacks something, so I decided to add some text on it:

Comments are luv, as usual
