How to Make the Vista logo in Photoshop

A compelling and quick moving tutorial on making the Windows Vista logo with Adobe Photoshop. The logo can be made quick without going too in depth into some of Photoshop's more advanced features. Starting with a circle a gradient shade is layered over the shape. Two circles are cut out and shaded white to give the circle a 3D feel. Then adding a drop shadow to the entire shape really gives it the logo's appearance. The windows themselves within the logo are cut to shape and copied and moved into their correct position. Each window is shaded to it's correct color while using more gradient and drop shadow effects... Some final tweaking and... A perfect Vista logo. Enjoy!
