Make a Cool Logo in Photoshop

Make a Cool Logo in Photoshop in 10 Minutes 

In this intractable, you will learn to make a cool logo for yourself like the pros in 5 minutes or less! The example I have provided is very basic, but you can get much cooler results in the event that you get more involved. I am utilizing Photoshop CS3, but I'm certain it will work with earlier versions or other programs. Let's get started!

Step 1: Step 1: Getting Started

Alright, here we go. Start with another blank document. I utilized 500x500, but you can utilize whatever works for you. This concept is very adaptable.

Step 2: Drawing the Basic Frame

Presently, get out your pen tool (shortcut "p"). Draw a line with it, then grab the point where your line finished and drag it a bit. In the event that you still don't understand this, play around a bit with the pen tool and you'll get it. It's a valuable aptitude to have. The picture illustrates what I wound up with, a very basic pen shape. On the off chance that you have not already, make beyond any doubt the shape is loaded with black, or the darkest that you will run with whatever color you are utilizing.

Step 3: Layering Up the Logo

In this progression, you'll begin to see the logo itself come to fruition. What I get a kick out of the chance to do is go to the layer with the shape on it and select all (ctrl +a) and copy and paste (ctrl + c, ctrl + v) which ought to copy the shape to another layer. Then transform that recently copied shape (ctrl + t) with the goal that it is smaller than the original. A decent tip for keeping the measurements correct is to hold shift while you are transforming. Load the selection (select, load selection) and utilize the paint container apparatus to fill it with a somewhat lighter shading. It is critical to stack the determination instead of just filling it, as in the event that you don't, then the shape will appear to have jagged edges.

Step 4: Time for a Progress Check!

At this point, you ought to have something like this.

Step 5: Adding Business as usual...

Just repeat step 3 now.

Step 6: And You Are Done!

That wasn't so bad, was it? I just applied "Satin" under mixing options. On the second one, I utilized the Sumi-E filter. Appreciate!
