Concept Glassy Logo
Preview:
Step 1:
Let's start out by creating a new file. I used a 700x200 pixels canvas set at 72dpi, and I filled my background with a white color. Now create a new layer set and name it 'Concept Glassy Logo'.
In a new layer draw a circle with 91×91 px dimensions and #734FB0 color shade.
Step 2:
Under Layer Style(Layer > Layer Style) add a Drop Shadow, Inner Shadow, Inner Glow and Gradient Overlay blending options to your purple circle layer. Then set the layers opacity level to 45%.
Step 3:
Create a new layer and draw a black circle with 81×81 px dimensions.
Step 4:
Under Layer Style(Layer > Layer Style) add an Inner Shadow and Gradient Overlay blending options to your black circle layer. Then set the layers blending mode to Lighten.
Step 5:
Duplicate your 'Text Design' layer set and merge it down through Layer > Merge Layer Set. The duplicated layer set should turn into a layer. Now go to Filter > Blur > Guassian Blur and apply a 4.0 pixels radius guassian blur.
Step 6:
Under Layer Style(Layer > Layer Style) add a Drop Shadow and Gradient Overlay blending options to your black ellipse layer. Then set the layers blending mode to Lighten.
Step 7:
Now in a new layer draw a smaller black circle on the center of your glassy logo. Then set the layers blending mode to Overlay.
Step 8:
Create a new layer and draw a black circle with 60×60 px dimensions on the center of the glassy logo design.
Step 9:
Under Layer Style(Layer > Layer Style) add an Inner Shadow, Outer Glow and Satin blending options to your black circle layer from last step. Then set the layers blending mode to Screen.
Step 10:
Select the Horizontal Type Tool and set the font family to Arial Black, regular, 48 pt, black color shade. In a new text layer type your website name next to the logo.
Step 11:
Under Layer Style(Layer > Layer Style) add a Drop Shadow, Inner Shadow, Satin and Gradient Overlay blending options to your text layer.
Results:
Unique Color Fade Text Effect.
