Watch, as the mask of my own skill and ingenuity falls off, only to reveal a ridiculously WAY too long tutorial. This guy went through every bloody step, made a 15 minute job an hour long!

TADA!

Alternatively, you can follow these much easier and less drawn out steps if you're not a total photoshop n00b...

1. Download and install this font. discodeck.ttf is the one you want, not the other random ones.
2. Create the gradient as he specifies and lay down an angle gradient on the page.
3. Type each letter on a seperate layer in white and line them up as needed.
4. To each text layer add this gradient overlay and drop this shadow. Finally click the "new style" button to make it a selectable style.
5. Add this new style to each text layer. Then go through each layer and adjust the angle of the gradient (example) and the position (example).
6. Finally, add a colour overlay, like so, and hey presto! An awesome logo.

Hopefully I've taken all the bollocks out and not actually made it harder!

Mr. Onion sir, would you mind doing me a sig utilising the clubs crest and the clubs colours (red & black) and incorporating our nickname "The Gypsies"

Cheers, your tut was perfect!

Is the colour overlay in it's own layer? also, Maybe make the I gradient start at the bottom. Otherwise, nice work

Yeah, but his was slap a few things together and hey presto done! Yours is requiring thought. You'll get it eventually, unlike Bob's sig (injokelol)
