1) Make a new "Base Color" layer with the color of your choice. Make sure its visible.
2) Select everything (Ctrl + A) and then "Copy Merged" (Ctrl + Shift + C) everything you want to be visible in the reflection.
3) Make a new layer above the already existing "Reflection".layers. Make sure that your new layer is visible and that the other "Reflection"-layers aren't. Paste your merged copy into this layer.
4) Whilst your reflection layer is active Ctrl-click the "Inner Glow"-layer. A selection should now appear. Invert it (press Ctrl + Shift + I), then press Delete. Now only the "icon" is left in your new "Reflection" layer (i.e. the background and shadows should be gone from the merged copy).
5) Flip the layer vertically (Right click -> Free transform -> Right click again -> Flip vertical).
6) Move the flipped icon down so it aligns with the main part at the bottom of the image.
7) Whilst your "Reflection"-layer is active, Ctrl-click the layer mask of one of the other "Reflection"-layers. Now you should have a new selection. Press the "Add layer mask"-button.
Did I remember to tell you I used this for my icon? If not, I used this for my icon.

Daily Literature Deviations is a group that is dedicated to bringing literature to the forefront of the deviantArt community. We attempt to accomplish this by daily featuring Literature artists from around the community that deserve the recognition, but are not getting it. Each day we will feature 5 deviations from the Literature categories in a News Article.
In order to support the artists that we feature, we ask that you the news article as well as check out the individual pieces. We understand that each day you may not be able to check out each and every one of the pieces, everyone has their own things going on. We just ask that you make an attempt to help support the growing Literature community.
