Glossy Interface

Next, choose the "Custom Shape Tool", and draw some more arrows for the menu icons as well as two rectangles for the pause buttons. Turn the fill of these icon layers down to 39% as well.

Using the "Custom Shape Tool", I added even more icons to the player.

Next, duplicate the "Display" layer and clear its layer style. To clear the layer style, right click on the duplicated layer and select "Clear Layer Style". Now change the layer name to "Pattern". Download the pattern here and select "Open".

Now right click on the "Pattern" layer and select, "Blending Options...".

Do not click "OK" yet. Still more to do.

Now click on "Pattern Overlay".

You may now click OK.

You should now have the below image.

Now select the "Eraser Tool" and use the below settings.

Click two or three times near the center of the "Pattern" layer to get the following.

Now "Ctrl" click the "Display" layer in the Layers Palette to create a selection around it. Then, go to the main menu and click on "Select" then "Modify" and then "Contract". Contract by 2 and click "OK". Then go to "Select" then "Inverse". Be certain that you have the "Pattern" layer selected in the Layers Palette. Then "Edit" then "Cut".

Now turn the fill of this layer down to 27%.

Next, duplicate the "Display" layer again and clear its layer style. To clear the layer style, right click on the duplicated layer and select "Clear Layer Style". Now change the layer name to "Dark Area".

Now choose the "Elliptical Marquee Tool" and make the following selection.

Now draw the below shape with the "Pen Tool" as I have illustrated below using the color White. Now turn the fill down to 12%.

Now draw the below shape with the "Pen Tool" as I have illustrated below using the color White. Then turn the fill down to 34%.

Next, grab the "Ellipse Tool" and draw the below shape again using White as the color. Then go to the main menu and select "Edit" then "Free Transform" and angle it as I have done below. Then turn the opacity down to 14%.

I've added some outer glow to the shape as well by right clicking the shape layer in the Layers Palette and selecting "Blending Options..." Choose White as the color with size of 5 and Opacity at 100%.

Now select the "Brush Tool" and use the below settings.

Then create a new layer, change its blending mode to Color Dodge and the Fill to 54%. I clicked once over the "pi" in "Empire Dezign" to get a more glossy effect. You may wish to turn the Fill down even more.

Then grab the "Rounded Rectangle Tool" and draw the below shape at a radius of 45 pixels. Name this layer "Extras" in the Layers Palette and drag so it is just above the background layer in the Layers Palette as the below image illustrates.
