Photoshop mouse painting tutorial wordpress's LOGO Photo

The first step:

Before I start pretty much any Photoshop project, I drop a couple of guides on the canvas. A quick way to add two guides centered vertically and horizontally is to: create a new layer, fill it with a color [alt + backspace], enter into Free Transform mode [ctrl + T], then drag the guides to the center and they will snap into place. I then usually discard the layer.
PS I start any project, I will draw a number of auxiliary lines. A quick way to help us build two auxiliary horizontal and vertical center lines. That is: create a new layer, fill color [alt + backspace], to enter into free transform mode, drag the guides to center (will be automatically attached), I usually will remove the layer.
Create a new layer and name it something like 'Circle'. With the ellipse tool, draw a circle. Start at the center and drag outwards while holding [shift] and [alt] to make a perfect circle. The one I made happens to have a 560 pixel diameter.
With the 'Circle' layer and the ellipse tool still selected, choose 'subtract from the shape layer' or [-]. Again, drag outwards from the center while holding [shift] and [alt] and make another circle with a smaller diameter to look like the example above.
Create a new layer to the circle. U use the ellipse tool, draw a circle. Hold down the shift】 and 【】 【alt the same time and drag outwards from the center circle. I am here to create a circle diameter of 560px.
Layer in the circle and the ellipse tool selected, select the "subtract from the shape" or 【-】. The same shift】 and press 【】 【alt out with a smaller diameter circle. Like the example above:

Double click on the 'Circle' layer to add a gradient overlay.
Double-click the circle layer add a gradient overlay

There is nothing scientific here. Just alternate between a very light grey to a dark grey. I used # 333333 and # DADADA. You can play around with these settings to get the look you want. You may even want to come back to this step after the logo is finished to tweak the look a little.

Step three:

Create a new layer and name it 'Circle Top'. On this layer, use the same method that I described in step 1 and make another circle that is slightly smaller than the first one. This second circle should cover most of the one below.
Create a new layer and name it "circle top." In this layer, the first step of the way with a slightly smaller than the first round. The second circle should cover most of the first circle.

Give this circle a gradient. I used a lighter grey, # 686868, that fades into a darker grey, # 181818, then back to the lighter grey. Use the settings in the example above. Again, this is nothing that needs to be exact . You can play around with the settings to come up with the look you like.
Application to the Gradient Overlay layer. I use the light gray, # 686868, that fades into gray, # 181818. Then back to light gray. Use the example settings. There is nothing that needs to be exact. You are free to set.
Step Four:

Now to give this layer a bit of shine. Control click the 'Circle Top' to add a marquee around the circle. Create a new layer and call it 'Circle Top Shine'. Select the elliptical marquee tool [M] then choose the ' Subtract from Selection option. Then, remove part of the marquee selection so it looks like the example above.
Make sure you have the 'Circle Top Shine' layer selected and grab the gradient tool [G]. Modify the gradient so that is fades from white to transparent. Fill the selection with the gradient so that it looks like the example above.
Now to give this layer a bit of light. Hold down the control and then click on the "upper circle" layer (marquee). Create a new layer to "circle the upper light." Select the elliptical marquee tool 【M】, select the Subtract from Selection. Then reduce the selection so it looks as shown above.
Sure to select "Circle Top light" layer, select the gradient tool 【G】. Changes from white to transparent gradient. As Figure fill constituency.

Step Five:
Create a new layer underneath the 'Circle' Layer and call it 'Background Circle'. Draw a circle with the elliptical tool. Give it a gradient overlay that starts with a shade of blue and fades down to a darker shade of blue. I used the colors # 394f78 and # 0a0f14. I then gave the circle an inner glow. I changed the inner glow color to black and the blend mode from 'Screen' to 'Normal'. Adjust the settings until you like how it looks.
Create a new layer above the 'Background Circle' layer and name it 'Background Circle Highlight'. With the marquee tool [M], select a circle with the same technique you used to make the first two circles. While holding [alt] and [shift] drag from the center to create the first circle. Using 'Subtract from selection' cut out the center to leave a thin selection.

Using the gradient tool [G], choose white fading into transparency. Drag down on the top half of the selection, then drag up from the bottom half of the selection. It should look like the example above. The deselect [ctrl + D] the circle and give it a Gaussian blur of about 4.5 pixels.
In the "circle" layer create a new layer under the name "background circle." U use the ellipse tool, draw a circle. Add a gradient overlay, start a shade of blue, fade to dark blue. I use the # 3947F78 and # 0A0F14. Then I used the inner glow. Change the inner glow color to black and mixed-mode "color filter" to "normal." You are free to change the settings.
In the "background circle" layer create a new layer named "Background Circle of light." 【M】 with the selection tool, create a circle with the first two methods to create round constituency, the center removed, leaving a narrow ring constituency.
Select gradient tool 【G】, select white to transparent gradient. From top to bottom half of the circle onto the lower part of the drag from the bottom up. Should appear as shown above. Deselect the application 4.5PX the Gaussian blur.
Step Six:

This is an easy step. Create a new layer above the 'Background Circle Highlight' layer. Name it 'Background Circle Shine'. Using the elliptical marquee tool [M] draw an oval shape towards the top the the background circle. Use the gradient tool [G] with a white fading to transparency to fill in the circle. Change the layer's blending mode to 'Soft Light'.
This step is very simple. In the "circle of high background light" to create a new layer above the layer named "background circle light." Using the elliptical marquee tool 【M】, the upper circle in the background, draw an oval shape. With the gradient tool 【G】, filled circle with a white to transparent.
Step Seven:

Finding the 'W' for the logo was a tough one. I ended up tracing it from an existing WordPress logo. You can get a vector version of the logo here. After tracing out the 'W', put it on a layer above the 'Background Circle Shine' and name it 'The W'. Size it and place it so that the edges are just barely behind the circle layer above it.
To find the "W" logo was a tough one. Finally I have the LOGO WORDPRESS found a ready force. You can get vector graphics from here. Find the "W", will he placed in the "background light circle" layer above named W. Change the size and location, it is located just above the boundary layer in side the circle
Right click on the very first layer you made, 'Circle', and select 'Copy layer style'. Then right click on the 'The W' layer and select 'Paste layer style'. It should now have the same gradient as the first circle layer.
Right-click on the first floor you create "circle" select "Copy Layer Style." Then right click on "W" layer, choose "Paste Layer Style." It should have and as the gradient layer in a circle.
[Ctrl] click the icon on the 'The W' layer to add a marquee around the W. Go to Select -> Modify -> Contract. Choose 3 pixels. The marquee will then shrink by 3 pixels.
Hold down the CTRL】 【click on "W" layer icon marquee. Select -> Modify -> contraction. Option 3 pixels. Constituency will shrink by 3 pixels
With the 'The W' layer still selected and with the shrunken marquee selection, click [ctrl + J]. This will copy the marquee selection and make a new layer out of it. Name this new layer 'The W Top'.
W layer and reduce the constituency after the selected state, press ctrl + J】, it will copy the constituency and its based on a new layer. Named "W upper" layers.
Double click on the 'The W Top' layer to open up the layer effects dialog. Give it a gradient the fades from a light grey at the top down to a darker grey. I used # FFFFFF and # 000000 and moved the scale slider up to 150%. Feel free to use your own method to create this look.
Double-click the "W upper" layer to open Layer Style dialog box. Application of gradient from light gray to dark gray top. I use # FFFFFF and # 000000 (which is obviously black to white thing in 。。。)。 Move the zoom slider to 150%, you can use your own way to achieve this effect.
Step eight:

Ok, for the last step. We are going to repeat the same technique we used in step 4 to add a shine to the W. Create a new layer above the 'The W Top' layer and name it 'The W Top Shine'. Now, [ctrl] click the icon on the 'The W Top' layer add a marquee selection. Use the elliptical marquee tool [M] to deselect the bottom half. Then, fill the selection with a white to transparent gradient.
Well, the last step, we will use the techniques used in the fourth step to add a highlight to the W. In the "W top," Create a new layer above the layer named "W top light." Now in accordance with the ctrl】 【Click "W upper" layer marquee. Using the elliptical marquee tool to deselect the bottom half. Then fill the selection with white to transparent gradient.
Final results:

As a final touch I added a drop shadow to the 'Circle' layer.
You are done.
Sit back, relax and bask in your awesomeness.
As a finishing, I gave "circle" layer add drop shadow. . .
