I made some forward progress with some of the icons that go on the cards I'm wokring on. And have taken one to competion. I took the daVinci drawing of (Vitruvian Man - Original link here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vitruvian_Man ) I used the magic wand tool to select him out of hte background then used the Saturation tool to colorize him blue. I added an atomic symbol in front of him and then put a glow around his figure to make him look like he is crackling with energy. Now I just have to create 65 more icons! Don't worry - I won't make a blog for each one. I'll be concentrating more on what I learned as I went along in making these. In this case, I got to try out using the glow option. Something I hadn't done a lot with in the past. Also getting the text to bend in a circle. I still may tweak this piece a bit more, but only in minor ways at this point.
