			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Today, I&#8217;m going to teach you how to make web 2.0 shield in photoshop.<br />
<span id="more-699"></span><br />
</p>
<h2>Step 1</h2>
<p>
I used pen tool to create shield, but you can create shield with shape, it looks similar.<br />
So you can load it in shape manager, or you can just use mine.<br />
<br />
<img src="http://imgur.com/H5qpV.png" alt="shape" /></p>
<hr />
</p>
<h2>Step 2</h2>
<p>We will change background.<br />
Select Gradient Tool, and choose radial.<br />
<br />
<img src="http://imgur.com/x3ViT.jpg" alt="2" /><br />
<br />
You should get something like this.(Your shape is blue, but we&#8217;ll change that later)<br />
<br />
<img src="http://imgur.com/0fuU7.jpg" alt="2" /></p>
<hr />
</p>
<h2>Step 3</h2>
<p>
Right click on &#8220;shield layer&#8221; and select &#8220;Blending Options&#8221;<br />
Choose &#8220;Gradient Overlay&#8221; from panel and set these colors.<br />
<br />
<img src="http://imgur.com/26wR1.jpg" alt="3" /></p>
<hr />
</p>
<h2>Step 4</h2>
<p>
Duplicate &#8220;shield layer&#8221; and press CTRL+T and resize it holding Alt+Shift.<br />
<img src="http://imgur.com/zSv0H.jpg" alt="4" /><br />
<br />
Select blending options again.<br />
Choose &#8220;Gradient Overlay&#8221; and check &#8220;Reverse&#8221; box.<br />
Now set these colors.<br />
<br />
<img src="http://imgur.com/oXfZU.jpg" alt="5" /></p>
<hr />
</p>
<h2>Step 5</h2>
<p>
Repeat Step 4 but we will change colors.<br />
Select &#8220;Gradient Overlay&#8221; and set these colors.<br />
<br />
<img src="http://imgur.com/xWI00.jpg" alt="6" /><br />
Repeat that process but check the &#8220;Reverse&#8221; box.<br />
You should get somethin like this.<br />
<img src="http://imgur.com/INUwf.jpg" alt="7" /></p>
<hr />
</p>
<h2>Step 6</h2>
<p>
Now we will work on shapes again.<br />
Select first shape layer and select blending options.<br />
Do the same thing I did.<br />
<br />

<img src="http://imgur.com/N25mU.jpg" alt="10" /></p>
<hr />
</p>
<h2>Step 7</h2>
<p>
Do that again on the second layer.<br />
It should look like this for now.<br />
<br />
<img src="http://imgur.com/bl56O.jpg" alt="11" /><br />
<br />
Now select third layer and choose blending options.<br />
<br />
<img src="http://imgur.com/cUq7e.jpg" alt="12" /><br />
<img src="http://imgur.com/gOsfK.jpg" alt="13" /><br />
<br />

<img src="http://imgur.com/oOeaI.jpg" alt="16" /><br />
<img src="http://imgur.com/bYfNP.jpg" alt="17" /></p>
<hr />
</p>
<h2>Step 8</h2>
<p>

Create path like this one<br />
<br />
<img src="http://imgur.com/DvqwX.jpg" alt="18" /><br />
Right click on the patch and select Make Selection &#8211; 0.<br />
Then select paint bucket tool and fill that select with white color.<br />
While &#8220;path&#8221; layer is select CTRL+Click on the thumbnail of the 4th layer and go to Select-Inverse-delete, CTRL+D and put opacity to 10%<br />
It should look like this<br />
<br />
<img src="http://imgur.com/1LJkV.jpg" alt="19" /></p>
<hr />
</p>
<h2>Step 9</h2>
<p>
Create a new layer above&#8221; background&#8221; layer.<br />
First select custom shape tool, then select this shape<br />
<br />
<img src="http://imgur.com/3kT6M.jpg" alt="20" /><br />
<br /<<br />
Now create shape and put opacity to 3%<br />
<br />
<img src="http://imgur.com/KX2gG.jpg" alt="21" /></p>
<hr />
</p>
<h2>Step 10</h2>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Create Sci-Fi Text in Photoshop<br />
<span id="more-669"></span></p>
<p>Open up a new canvas size 600&#215;300.<br />
Choose gradient tool <img src="http://i.imgur.com/ZtRdB.jpg" alt="gradient" /> and use these settings.<br />
First, select radial <img src="http://imgur.com/uXvns.png" alt="radial" />, now use this colors.<br />
<img src="http://imgur.com/jFiMR.jpg" alt="1" /><br />
<br />
Now with gradient tool create radial background.<br />
<img src="http://i.imgur.com/hfAur.jpg" alt="2" /><br />
Now we&#8217;ve got this.<br />
<img src="http://imgur.com/yc73x.jpg" alt="3" /><br />
<br />
First, download this font.<br />
<a href="http://www.mediafire.com/?ne1nmrtwoqo"><img src="http://imgur.com/0rrjV.jpg" alt="orbitron" /></a><br />
<br />
Select Text tool and use &#8220;Orbitron (OT1) font and type in something. Size : 65, style : Black.<br />
<img src="http://imgur.com/oZ3cO.jpg" alt="4" /><br />
<br />
Noew we&#8217;re going to use a <a href="http://imgur.com/2dRaS.jpg">stone texture</a>.<br />
Open up stone texture and place it under text layer and change blending to overlay and opacity 60%.<br />
It should look like this.<br />
<img src="http://imgur.com/BWoGN.jpg" alt="5" /><br />
<br />
Now we will edit text.<br />
Right click on text layer and select &#8220;Blending options&#8221;<br />
<img src="http://imgur.com/Gf7mF.jpg" alt="6" /><br />
<img src="http://imgur.com/hIvpU.jpg" alt="7" /><br />
<img src="http://imgur.com/IEtrS.jpg" alt="8" /><br />
<img src="http://imgur.com/pv1UT.jpg" alt="9" /><br />
<img src="http://imgur.com/dxRvq.jpg" alt="10" /><br />
<br />
Now open up <a href="http://imgur.com/su55c.jpg">new texture</a>.<br />
Put texture to the top.<br />
While texture layer is selected Ctrl+click on the thumbnail of the text layer. Now, go to select-inverse-delete.<br />
Put blending to soft light, opacity 20%<br />
Use this texture and repeat previous step<br />
<img src="http://imgur.com/pL2v8.jpg" alt="12" /><br />
<br />
I made this weird texture but it&#8217;ll be very useful.Place in under the text layer and change its blending to color dodge, opacity 7%, sharpen it twice and remove with eraser parts you don&#8217;t like.<br />
<img src="http://imgur.com/PsCFj.jpg" alt="13" /><br />
<br />
Now, duplicate text layer and place that copy under original text layer.<br />
<img src="http://i.imgur.com/vRWkL.jpg" alt="14" /><br />
Now select copy layer and and use &#8220;Alt-down-left&#8221; arrow to achieve 3D effect.<br />
<img src="http://imgur.com/mwECz.jpg" alt="15" /><br />
<br />
Merge all &#8220;copy&#8221; layers, CTRL+E, and go to Blending options.<br />
<img src="http://imgur.com/lu89O.jpg" alt="16" /><br />
<img src="http://imgur.com/dPVnq.jpg" alt="17" /><br />
<img src="http://imgur.com/2Jdw8.jpg" alt="18" /><br />
<img src="http://imgur.com/Wz4ff.jpg" alt="19" /><br />
<br />
You can apply mirror effect if you want.<br />
Now, create new layer and apply image.<br />
Apply lighting effect, blur and sharpen, add stroke if you want and you&#8217;re done <img src='http://psdsymptom.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_biggrin.gif' alt=':D' class='wp-smiley' />  .<br />
