I used my friend's band logo for this project to give them something cool for their Instagram page.  I started off with this image of their logo (which I did not design).

I simplified the design to just the lettering.

I was pretty happy with the end result and so was my friend!  He also requested a version in mauve.  I'd like to keep going and work on a nice background for these.

The tip about the curve layer and gradient map was excellent.  I will definitely be using that in other projects.  Overall, such a cool and fun tutorial!
