Creating an elegant logo

Posted February 7th, 2009 in Design by admin

Hello again! Today we will make a logo

Create a new PSD file (622X288) and fill the background with a radial gradient (#ececec-#b2b1b1).

Let’s add some text, I used the Calibri font size 72px. Select the type tool and type “LOREM”  (style – bold). On an another layer, type “IPSUM” (style – regular).

Now, select the text layer “LOREM” and go to Layer-Layer Style-Drop shadow. Set the following settings:
Opacity 26%, Distance 1px, Size 6px.
Move to Gradient overlay and fill the layer with a linear gradient #cd0000-#ee1800

Select the next layer “IPSUM” and set the same settings but don’t fill it with a different gradient. Fill it with a color #303030.

Add some text near the right-bottom corner of our text. Font: Calibri, Size: 18pt, Style: Bold.

And now, make sure that our logo is placed exactly in the center. See the picture above.

That’s all!
