This icon tutorial will not be 100x100 it will be 96x96 (picture from sweetandtalented.com). So I was making an msn icon recently, and well I was creating the effect I figured out an awesome baby blue glow effect. As the tutorial is called, Baby Burst. =] That's such a cute name I decided to put it on the msn icon which you can get from, here. I decided earlier when I was making a huge msn icon revamp to do Mischa Barton. One of my favorite actresses with Elisha Cuthbert. :) So I'll be using this icon: (which I sharped so before we start go FLITER>>SHARPEN>>SHARPEN).
Now on the layers bar (it should be open if not go WINODW and then check off LAYERS) and change the layer properties (click the drop down menu and switch it to, Screen. Then after that, change the opcaity to, 30%. It should have a little brightness changed. It should look like this:
Moving on to a little bit trickier step...go LAYER>>NEW ADJUSTMENT LAYER>>SELECTIVE COLOR. A little box should open up, press okay. Then on the drop down menu on the new box that appears should be displaying, Reds. Change the percentages to each of the colors on Reds to; Cyan: -100, Magenta: -19, Yellow: -19, Black: +44.
Next on the drop down menu select, Yellows which is right below Reds. Change the percentages to; Cyan: +100, Magenta: +64, Yellow, -32, Black: +100.
The last step for the Selective Color layer is press the drop down menu again and click Neutrals which is right above Blacks. Change the percentages on Neutrals to these color options; Cyan: +52, Magenta: +20, Yellow: 0, Black: 0. Press OK. Now this is what it should look like so far:
This is an easier step then the last. Please go LAYER>>NEW ADJUSTMENT LAYER>>HUE/SATURATION. Press ok when a box appears and then another one should. Don't change anything on the edit: drop down menu. Keep Hue: and Lightness: to 0. But change Saturation: to +25. It should look like this now:
Now for the last step for this Baby Burst icon tutorial I would like you to go LAYER>>NEW FILL LAYER. When the box pops up don't set anything yet you can wait till after. Just press OK. Then a new box should appear and in the hexidemal color code box put in #2facd1. Then press OK. On the layer bar (make sure the Color... layer is selected) on the drop down menu (Normal should be displayed) and change it to Color Dodge. And change the opcaity to: 42%. You have now completed the tutorial! Look at the final result!
