I'm using PSCS3
1. crop your base
2. lighten it up (CTRL+ATL+M) if you use CS2 this should automaticallt lighten your icon. If you use CS3 you have to change it from custom to lighten. Do this however many times you need to. I did it once.
3. new fill layer #faecfe and set it to burn 100%
4. new selective color layer
red: 15, 0, 20, 0
yellow: 0, 0, 0, 35
