step 11
Move this layer behind the colored layer and using transform tool (CTRL + T) skew it in this direction as shown below.
step 12
After transforming that layer..Go to filters>blur>Gaussian blur and give is a 1.0 value blur.We are almost done now. Add the text make sure you use nice bold font .I used Arial.
step 13
Select the icon base and go to the gradient button after having your foreground color to white. Select the same option as you did before and apply the gradient with a radial gradient mode from the middle of the circle to the end. Make the opacity as 40% after you finish applying it ..have this as the top layer
step 14
Using transform tool (T) reduce the circle and move it on top. Now select the main icon cicle and inverse select it and delete this selection..
step 15
Now we are going to create a simple reflection by merging all the layers (Ctrl+E) without selecting the background and duplicate the merged layer (Ctrl + J). Flip Vertical the duplicate layer and reduce opacity to 40% and erase the unwanted areas . There you go your very own WEB 2.0 icon is ready
