141 VPS hosting layout

Hello friends

Today i will create Tutorial Number 141 from 500 Tutorial Marathon
I will create another web hosting tutorial. in this tutorial i will use the last 3D server i have created in tutorial number 140

This is my final result. You can download the following PSD layout to see better how you it's done. Please note that you can create this layout in less then 20 minutes if you have the Big-Pack



Now i will show you how simple you can create this layout
Let's start with a new document

Size 760x770 pixels
Background color : white

Select Rounded rectangle tool ( set the radius to 5 pixels ) and create a few shapes. i will use different colors, so you can see better what i am doing



Now for the red shapes ( our buttons ) please add the following layer styles











After i have applied the same layer style for all buttons here is my result



Now select the big black shape, and add the following layer styles











This is my result



Now for the other black shape add the following layer styles











This is my result



Now let's add a layer style for the blue shape











Now for the orange shape add the following layer styles











Now for the green shape add the following layer styles











This is my result



Now select the Blue shape layer.Hold down CTRL key from your keyboard, and with your mouse click on the layer thumbnail.



You can see that your blue layer is selected.



Now create a new layer right above the blue layer. You can create the layer if you press CTRL+SHIFT+ALT+N .
After you have created the layer, select Brush tool, and with a round brush ( Airbrush Soft round ) create some random lines on the new layer.



Now for this new layer change the blending mode to " overlay " and then reduce the opacity to 40%



Press CTRL+D to deselect, and then you should have something like me



Be sure you have this layer selected , then press CTRL+J ( this action will duplicate the layer )
With Move tool place the layer over the orange layer,
You can duplicate this layer 2 times, so you can place also one over the green layer

This is my result



Now it is time to add some images on this layout. i will add the 3D servers i have created in our previous tutorial.



Now i will add some text with Text tool



Between servers i will create another shape



Now if you have Talk-Mania Big-Pack
please load some brush arrows and add the following arrows on our layout



For this arrows please add the following layer styles









This is my result



I will add a logo from VIP area.
