Hey, Im entering the contest to create the media and I downloaded the P2L logo but i'm not sure how to do the gradient like you guys have at the top. Anyone care to share? Thanks

Easily mate

Grab your gradient tool, set your foreground to #3295CC and your background to #217FBD then drag from the top of your canvas to the bottom. You will probabally not be able to see this effect, but its there

Ok, now make a new layer and grab a brush.. soft brush about 200PX now set your foreground to #82C2E2 and do a little dot at the top left hand corner of your image

Simple!

Edit: When you mean soft brush do you mean opacity at like 50 or do u mean mode soft light?

He means a low "Hardness" setting...in the main brush dropdown menu, where it says "Master Diameter" (or something like that) you should see "hardness" underneath that, set that way low...like, 0

Yeayea... what Alex said

[poosay]

Do you guys have 7.0? Because thats what i'm using and hardness isnt under master diameter

Hmm, I don't know why it wouldn't be there :/

Anyway just choose the brush that looks all blurry instead of the one that's a crisp circle. Also I suggest turning the "Flow" down to 50% or so too.

Um... No syndrome, lol. its pretty easy to figure out really...

Poosay, if your still stuck... just use a big brush and then click Filter > Blue > Guassian blur - and that will solve the problem

[syndrome]

I think it is lol
I cant get the colour of the green right on the header text.

Is there an easier way to find out colours from images?

[sq3r]

Use the eyedrop tool and hover it right over the color you want to use.
