Icon-A-Day, Icon # 62, Network Service
Loose ends.
Thursday, March 3, 2005 by mormegil | Discussion: Icons
| Icon 62 (Network Services) Yesterday I said I would be be doing the Printer icon tonight. However I am running late today do to the fact that I am in the process of moving over the next week or so. So tonight I am going to cheap out and take care of some lose edges. A while back we did a series of network icons, now that we are getting closer to the end of the pack I realized that we skipped a few. The first of these is the Network Services icon. | ||
| Step 1: Lets start by copying the Internet icon. .jpg) |
Step 2: Now I size the globe down and tweak the cable to make it stretch further around the edge of the icon area. .jpg) |
Step 3: Now we take a copy of the gear from the admin folder and place it in front of the globe. .jpg) |
| Step 4: Now using our reflection techniques I give the gear a new reflection. .jpg) |
Step 5: Now using the Shadows techniques I give the gear the new shadow. .jpg) |
Finished Icon design. .jpg) |

Well, I still want to get to the printer icon, hopefully we will be able to take care of it tomorrow. | ||

I cant thank you enough. You have taught me more than I could ever imagined. I have had Corel Draw for quite some time, but never used it until your videos. Now I have fallen in love with it. Every day I cant wait to see the new Icon Of The Day. And the weekends drive me crazy until I download the new Corel Draw For Skinners. I spend a lot of time studying and practicing the things you teach us. Hopefully someday I can give back a portion of what you have given to all of us.
Thanks again, Dave
Thanks again, Dave

Well, I got my Corel Graphics Suite 12 in the other day (got the full version for $179 as an existing PSP customer), I have yet to install it but I plan to get to that ASAP, so I'm hoping to take a look at this great series as well as the Corel video series and maybe learn how to create graphics that are maybe 1/1000th as clean as your Paul. Any tips on getting started, anyone?
