MetStro logos are very easy to make. After you open the template in Photoshop, first make the layer called “HIDE IT BEFORE SAVE” unvisible. Resize your logo to 130x130 px and then paste it onto the template just below the folder called “Above everything” and over the “130x130” layer which is hidden and shows where should the logo be positioned. Make sure that your logo fits that box.
Then open the layer group called gradient by clicking on the arrow next to it. Make the layers from this group which are visible- unvisible. Then make your primary team colour layer visible (in my case it’s blue for Chelsea).
If you’re not happy with gradient colours that are in this layer group you can create your own gradient. First hide all the layers from group called “Gradient” and then open the group called “Make your own gradient” and make it visible by clicking on the eye icon next to it. After opening it you can see that there are 3 layers. Right click on the layer called “C. Overlay” and select blending options. In the new window select the “colour overlay” option on the left hand side of the window. Then click to the colour icon next to the blend mode text, pick colour you need and close all the windows by clicking ok.
