tut.4
>> 
with PS7
You know what... That is very easy again!!
No curves, only 3 color layers ;)
1. Choose a pic, resize it, crope it, do whatever you want to get a base you like ;-)

2. Duplicate the base and set it to screen. Set the opacity to 30% (depending on your base). Then filter > blur > gaussian blur from 2.5 to 3, depending on how you want your icon to look like.

3. Create a new layer and fill with #9E9A9A and set the layer to color burn. Set the opacity to 50%.

4. Create a new layer and fill with #F1B386 and set the layer to color burn. Set the opacity to 30%.

5. Create a new layer and fill with #111344 and set the layer to exclusion.

6. Duplicate the base and set it to soft light. Desaturate it ( crtl + maj + u). Sharpen

Voili, voilou!
