How to Slightly Modify A Header Logo Banner with PhotoShop Layers

I found a cool template at TemplateWorld that I plan to use somewhere here on the Adobe-Masters.com domain to house a few web master tools.

But first, I’ll have to make a few changes to make it fit my purpose. Here’s the original TemplateWorld logo banner…

I’ve just opened my Adobe Photoshop program and I’d like to get rid of the “redish circle”.  Actually, I need to get rid of the text too.

How to Slightly Modify A Header Logo Banner with PhotoShop Layers

Since the template didn’t come with a modifiable psd file, the best way to do so is to add a new layer and place a new circle, custom shape, or a new button on top of the redish to cover it.  My decision is to go with one of the free web 2.0 buttons from the “How to Use Free Illustrator Buttons In Photoshop and On Website” tutorial.

So here’s the new button with new text…

I wanted to change the “what’s new” to something different.  Thankfully, I had the 200 buttons in the Button for Clicks Software.  The package has all types of buttons.  There was a yellow image similar so I went ahead and used it on a new layer as you can see below.

But, I’d like to change the black outline to white.  Just had to add a stroke in the layer’s blending options.

Changing the scissor image would require at least three new layers covering the backgrounds, so I’ll leave it for now.

Here’s a totally un-related web design video if your interested.
