Looking wandering.net’s previous “traditional’ Web2.0 style, I decided it was a little too bland for me. It was basically comprised of 1 color with multiple levels of shading, creating a clear-white reflection.

I wanted to make the shading a slightly different color. To all intents, I wanted a “real-world” relfection with color bouncing off a third object. Here you’ll see the a section of where the logo as it appears on this blog…

Basically it’s the purple logo, with a shading gradient mixed with yellow. So the yellow bar below the logo looks like it’s reflecting against (and mixing with) the purple logo. At least that’s what it looks like to me

Here are Photoshop and PaintShopPro format source files for those who would like to play with creating their own logo using my modified/evolved Web 2.0-style.

PaintShopPro format

I bought Adobe Photoshop CS2 (the latest version) a few months back, tried to use it, but am still sticking with PaintShopPro. I can’t seem to find anything in Photoshop that PaintShopPro doesn’t provide. Oh well, that was $300+ well spent
