stay tuned and follow along in today's
tutorial on how to design this neat
wallpaper for your phone unity of

trying to give away I really enjoy
looking over the entries and it's really
cool to see all of the different styles
and ideas that you guys have for using
techniques in the administrator I think
it about one or two weeks I'm gonna
launch my big giveaway celebrating the
25,000 subscriber mark on this channel
it's a great way for me to say thank you
to you guys for constantly tuning in
liking commenting and share my content
here is throw graphics I'm gonna link
this website in description below but it
shows you all the screen dimensions in
pixels for their smartphone models this
will help you decide what size to make
your document to design a smartphone
wallpaper
using your logo
I'm going to use the iPhone X as today's
example so in Illustrator create a new
document then select web we want the PPI
to be 72 I'm going to use pixels as a
measurement make sure it's in poetry and
then type in the correct dimensions for
your smart phone model using a gradient
fill press M to access the rectangle
tool and then create a shape over the
entire canvas being very careful to make
sure it touches the edges of your smart
phone wallpaper
the gradient becomes use in today's
tutorial needs to be a radio instead of
linear gradient and then you need to set
both sides of the slider to this very
dark blue here then you can adjust one
side to be slightly darker in the RGB
settings when I was designing this
gradient there was no banding on my
screen after recording the software is
caused the gradient to band a beer
however I'm sure when I'm save it and
then send it to my phone there's gonna
be no banding on the gradient just make
sure your design has a smooth gradient
across the entire campus so once you
finish the gradient lock it down a place
or doesn't move around for the remainder
of this tutorial and how to make a smart
phone wallpaper using your logo
speaking of logo designs you have a
different logo if you logo has color
then you can choose to keep in full
color though grayscale is gonna work a
lot better for this design so with the
legatus end selected go ups edits edit
colors and then choose grayscale once
you've done that you can then go in and
change the hue of grey and your design
so it can be as bright as possible you
want it to pop off the background of the
wallpaper for your smartphone Mallika is
white however so I don't need to adjust
the color settings place you like on top
of the smartpen wallpaper and then
adjust it to your liking we're now gonna
add an outer glow so go to effects tile
eyes and outer glow
you have to play around these settings
here but we want to give a very subtle
outer glow fades not something that's
too overpowering at this stage I'll use
soft light of the blend mode a light
blue color 95% of pasty an 80% blue with
a white stroke selected press P to
locate the pencil and then carefully
hold down shift to draw a line and right
across the wallpaper from left to right
you can then increase the stroke away
and I'd like to use a different stroke
style if you're going to make this line
looks super need for a smart phone
wallpaper design so we're going to add
an outer glow
this time the blend may needs to be
normal so it has more presence on your
design we need to change the blend mode
of the entire line which we can do the
transparency window you can locate this
in the toolbar you can go up to the
window panel change the blend mode to
overlay then hold down the option key to
duplicate the line like so you can then
simply press command or control D over
and over again to duplicate the line
downwards finally to make sure your
lines are aligned perfectly select them
all and then align them in the line
window then all you need to do is to
move them centrally onto your smart
phone wallpaper design
we're now going to hire the artistic
finishing touches of our design firstly
you can select each line and increase or
decrease the stroke weight this will
cause the lines to be more or less
common on your design you can also press
shift W to locate the winds tool and
then you can increase or decrease the
stroke weight anywhere along the line
like so I want you all to experiment and
play with these techniques to design
your smartphone wallpaper so have fun
and get creative with it oh you can also
copy a line the ctrl or command C and
then you can press command or control F
to paste it exactly in place this will
create a brighter line as it's now going
to be two lines on top of each other so
yeah get creative and design your smart
phone wallpaper until your field is
finished
so once it's ready you're gonna need to
save it for your smartphone so go to a
file and then use the export and save
for web option I feel that PNG would be
best but you can also use JPEG as a fire
format make sure not to check the
transparency background option and then
click Save
you can now move this over to your phone
and set it to your wallpaper and if you
want to take a screenshot of your
wallpaper and then upload it to Twitter
Instagram and then you can tag the toy
graphics I'd love to see your designs
