A tutorial for this icon:




well first off...im nto gonna explain teh whole cropping and arranging thing AGAIN, so i'll just sart with teh coloring k?

here's my pic: - i think it's the most beautiful pic of natalie, she's just too gorgeous


- thanx to natalie-portman.org

after cropping it, i got my base:



hit shift+ctrl+alt+e
and the base will be copied as one layer, duplicate it and sharpen, then set to soft light



then, underneath the soft light layer, make a new exclusion 100% layer
and fill with #010717 - you knwo this color gives the coolest exclusion
layer EVER

now, go back to the soft light layer and add a texture by thia, set to multiply 100%


--->

then, add a gradient, set to multiply 100% again


--->

add another texture by....well i dunno whose this one is....looks like
thia's but combined with some other texture, then again i could be so
wrong...if you know whose it is lemme knwo k? this time, set it to soft
light 100%


--->

now, copy the base again, and slide it over to the top and set it to soft light again :)



add some text and that's it :)
