Create a Calendar Icon - Design Tutorial 2
The next thing we do is to create the bar where we will keep our month and year. I have used the #ff5400 hex shown below, so if you want to achieve the same results, please use that.
Create a duplicated layer, and overlay it with this hex color #ffc000.

Nice.. I’m gonna try it, but I love your background even more, how do you do that?

The background is actually a default Mac OSX Wallpaper but you just gave me an idea to create a tutorial on how to make one so expect that to come soon.

Other than a few spelling mistakes I was doing good until we made the first “column” for the boxes. I cannot find anywhere to set up a 1 pixel border. You didn’t tell which tool to use so I assumed the same rectangle tool we used thus far. Also your one settings page was difficult to read.
I would also like to ask you what we are starting with as far as a base is concerned (size and dpi settings). I think I would like it far better if you were to take screenshots of the work in progress from within photoshop instead of exporting each step (what it appears you are doing).
I can’t say great tut because I can’t finish but I’m happy with a good majority of the tut until the step I am stuck at.
