Help!!! I would like to know how to make glossy logos...

[Michael V.]

So, I bought Paintshop Pro x6, the 64-bit version. I may buy photoshop Elements 12 as well since I do enjoy modding, although I am no where near as good as you guys. I am learning, and have found that for me, the curve has been a steep one.

Could someone walk me through on how to make glossy logos that are rounded? I will post an example of what I mean. I will post one I want to be glossy, and the other one (the second logo) will be glossy, which is what I am looking for. I have several I need done, around 18 or so lol...






How I want it to look (as far as it being glossy):

Should include the glossy one too... They are in psd format for Photoshop though...

Thank you.

Okay, I downloaded the template, but it is still a Boston Red Sox logo within the logo itself. How do I replace it? Or how would I apply that glossy look to the logo that isn't glossy, like the one on my thread? Yeah, I am that unfamiliar with all this. =/

You can either delete the layer with the Sox logo or simply hide the layer... You can add a new layer and paste your logo into it or just delete the sox logo and paste your logo into that layer... Change the color layers to your colors and save the logo with a new file name so as not to overwrite the master...

How are you opening a psd file with PaintShop Pro?

I just right click on the template and use the 'open with' option. I then import/copy the logo I want to make glossy into the program.

Heh, yeah...the gloss is out of place kinda and not looking to good on the logo i want to make glossy, lol. This is going to take a lot of time for someone who has no idea what he's doing hahaha.

I guess I had forgotten that PSP could open a psd file... Learn something new or learn it again everyday around here...

Use the color changer tool instead of the color fill to chage your colors... I think it works better... Play with the tolerance and the edge softness settings to get the look you want...
