Reflections
A neat trick I learned was to add a reflection at the bottom of a logo or image. To do some of this duplicate the layer, flip the layer vertically, and align it to the bottom of the image. Add a layer mask by right clicking the layer in the Layers panel and choose 'Black'. Go to the blend tool and make sure to use black and white, there should be an icon under the colors to default to it. drag the blend tool from the part where the bottom of the reflection should, in a straight line to the bottom of the original layer you duplicated and leave. Now you should have a reflection. I tried using the brush tool set on white and drag it across the reflection to give it some sort of effect, looks okay.
