Hello
I want to create a logo with this effect.
Does anybody Know the best way to create this.
My instinct are to build it up with layers in photoshop but im not sure if this is the best programme to use as it will need to be printed in large format. Thought it would be best to create a vector in illustrator? But im not as hot on effects in illustrator
Thanks
Stacey

I guess you could do it as layered gradients [in PS] but it all depends how much time you've got to spend on it.
Good luck :happyCGI Specialist -
