I am making my own logo for a minisite.
And I found this easy cookbook recipe
to make a heart in Photoshop:
http://www.tutorialpark.com/drawing-animated-heart/


I am using colors:
Female (Thistle1): #FCDFFF
Male (Light Blue): #ADDFFF

Maybe I should go for red and blue...?

See a colormap here

    The colors you have are OK. I'd try deepening them, though.

    It's easy.
    Just use custom shapes in Photoshop.
    The are ready drawn up.
    Just resize and you are go for other things.

      Hey I just popped into the web design thread to see what was going on and noticed this post.

      Not sure what compelled me to do it, but I drew up a quick heart logo for you if you'd like it.

      It's a png, with a transparent background. You can grab it here:

      Feel free to use it however you like. It's 100% original, so no worries on the copyright. Take care.

            As per your suggestion. I've toned down the "reflection" so that the color of the hearts comes through more.

                Hi
                If your serious about learning web, you just have to make a commitment. I can probably hold your hand if you wanted to pay for an hour or two of personal coaching.

                Honestly though, there are enough free resources out there, that you wouldn't need to.
                Try these two tutorials first:

                http://3.ly/N5O
                http://3.ly/iyd

                They are very in depth, and start with the basics. If you are still having trouble, then you might want to check out tizag, or w3c. They are even more basic, and provide you with all of the core syntax you will need for knowing web.

                Well, if you have any questions let me know. Best of luck.

              As lostarts just showed make sure the colours give a sense of impact. It definitively will boost your design.

      That's right. I used Illustrator to draw out the heart shapes, re-size the shape and throw a gradient on it to create the inner reflection. It took about 10 minutes (if that) to complete the entire thing. Once the shapes were created in illustrator, I brought it into photoshop to give the arrow a slight shading to look as if it was busting through. Then used the "save image for web" feature to create the png file with the transparent background.

      Simple and effective.
