1 Layer iMac

   Made of one layer with a gradient and only two Layer Styles — gradient overlay and stroke (including the white background)

   The iMac's wallpaper is made from the colours of the original Apple logo :)

   Proof that's it's only one layer: http://bit.ly/JChJpN

   Very cool. I'd love to see a video of this being made from scratch.

   @Bjango ✎ Marc Edwards Thanks :) The hardest part was the Apple logo — took me a while to figure out how to do it

   @Shaun Tollerton Thanks — I had several bad starts so the video would be quite long if I had recorded one :)

   @Bjango ✎ Marc Edwards Definitely — I ended up sketching how I would do it on paper before I finally managed to get it right in PS :)
