4 Make sure you are having "base" layer selected. Now hold Alt key and press UP arrow key 10 to 12 times. Now your logo is a bit 3d. Now lets make it more realistic.

We need to merge all of the duplicated layers you just created. Go to your layers panel and merge them down by selecting the top layer (the last one created) and hit Ctrl+E on your keyboard. Do this as many times needed to get your new 3D logo on to one layer. Don't merge it all the way down, leave your background layer there.

5 Now hold Ctrl key and select "base" layer in the Layers Panel. This will highlight your logo. Make a new layer above the layer with your logo. Make sure the new layer is selected, and then select the gradient tool and draw a gradient of your choice.

Go to the Layer Panel and change the layer type from Normal to Color.
