[PS]Making your own reflected icons

[Kedzi]

Hi guys, the new fashion in docks are the reflected icons. This tutorial will guide you how to do it. I know it's kind of the same process as making a reflection but I'm sure it will help you :p

1. Open your .png icon in Photoshop.

2. Open the template in Photoshop.

3. Copy your icon onto the template. I usually accomplish this by
copy/paste or by dragging the layer onto the template.

4. Resize your icon's layer in the template to fit inside the guides.
The guides form a square at the upper portion of the work area.

5. Duplicate your icon's layer by pressing ctrl + j.

6. With the duplicate layer active, go to Edit/Transform/Flip Vertical.

7. Drag the inverted layer underneath the original layer,
so the flipped bottom is flush with the "normal" bottom.

8. Ctrl-click on the layer mask of "Layer 4 copy".

9. Apply the layer mask to your new inverted layer by going to Layer/Layer Mask/Reveal Selection.

10. Now, do a "save as" command and save your file as a .png.
Your done ! Now just browse your new .png icon and admire it :p ! !
