Does anyone know a good tutorial for making images with an effect similar to that of the icons on an iPhone? I'm not trying to make the icons themselves, I'm trying to replicate the effect on a larger size.
The shiny glare effect right?
AusQB look for a tutorial about "plastic buttons" or "glassy buttons". Tutorial 9 and PSDTutsplus are some great resources. But there are many others.
AusQB, those two sites i recommended are good, and if you are wanting to make them on a larger scale (or scalable at all for that matter) I would use the vector drawing tools in Ps. Remember we spoke about that before, in regards to the use of anchors and drawing consistent curves.
Then apply the "glossy" effects with layer styles. This way when you re-size them they should all stay clear and proportional.
