    <content type="html">&lt;center&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Start: &lt;img alt="" src="http://i157.photobucket.com/albums/t41/icontheboy/icon%20tutorial%201/ryanoi.gif" /&gt; Finish: &lt;img alt="" src="http://i157.photobucket.com/albums/t41/icontheboy/icon%20tutorial%201/ryanci.gif" /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;PS CS2. Most likely translatable. Simple layers.&lt;/strong&gt; &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a name="cutid1"&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;1&lt;/strong&gt;. Get your image, crop it, whatever you need to do. &lt;br /&gt;I sharpened my base, duplicated it, and made the duplicate a &lt;strong&gt;screen&lt;/strong&gt; layer. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;img alt="" src="http://i157.photobucket.com/albums/t41/icontheboy/icon%20tutorial%201/screen1.gif" /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;2&lt;/strong&gt;. Make a new layer and set it to &lt;strong&gt;soft light&lt;/strong&gt;. Flood the layer with #&lt;strong&gt;6ADEA4&lt;/strong&gt;. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;img alt="" src="http://i157.photobucket.com/albums/t41/icontheboy/icon%20tutorial%201/greensoft.gif" /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;3&lt;/strong&gt;. New layer, set to &lt;strong&gt;multiply&lt;/strong&gt;. Flood the layer with &lt;strong&gt;#F2CA96&lt;/strong&gt;, this time setting the opacity around &lt;strong&gt;20%&lt;/strong&gt;. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;img alt="" src="http://i157.photobucket.com/albums/t41/icontheboy/icon%20tutorial%201/multiply.gif" /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;4&lt;/strong&gt;. New layer, set to &lt;strong&gt;exclusion&lt;/strong&gt;. Flood the layer with &lt;strong&gt;#072D69&lt;/strong&gt; and set the opacity around &lt;strong&gt;80%&lt;/strong&gt;. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;img alt="" src="http://i157.photobucket.com/albums/t41/icontheboy/icon%20tutorial%201/exclusion.gif" /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;5&lt;/strong&gt;. Another new layer, set to &lt;strong&gt;color burn&lt;/strong&gt;. Flood the layer with &lt;strong&gt;#F1BCCC&lt;/strong&gt; and set the opacity around &lt;strong&gt;50%&lt;/strong&gt;. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;img alt="" src="http://i157.photobucket.com/albums/t41/icontheboy/icon%20tutorial%201/colorburn.gif" /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;6&lt;/strong&gt;. Duplicate the base and drag it to the top. Set it to &lt;strong&gt;soft light&lt;/strong&gt;. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;img alt="" src="http://i157.photobucket.com/albums/t41/icontheboy/icon%20tutorial%201/softlight1.gif" /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;7&lt;/strong&gt;. Duplicate the top &lt;strong&gt;soft light&lt;/strong&gt; layer and get the finished product: &lt;br /&gt;&lt;img alt="" src="http://i157.photobucket.com/albums/t41/icontheboy/icon%20tutorial%201/ryanci.gif" /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/center&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;p align="left"&gt;Remember to mess with the layers to better fit your icon.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;If something isn't very clear, let me know.&lt;br /&gt;Hope the tutorial helped you in some way. Seeing your feedback/results would be cool. :)</content>
