Step 1:

Let's start out by creating a new file. I used a 300x300 pixels canvas set at 72dpi, and I filled my background with a white color. Now create a new layer set and name it 'Alien Head Logo Design'.

Now select the Polygon Tool, above your screen under the options palette choose Fill Pixels, set the sides to 3 with anti-aliased checked. Then access the Polygon Options palette and check Smooth corners. In a new layer draw a black polygon with 102×77 px dimensions.

Checklist

Remember, if designing for print, set your workspace to 300dpi and at actual size to be used, or larger. Many people use higher resolutions, 600dpi for instance, but this is not necessary, and will not improve the final print quality.

If designing just for the web, then a 72dpi workspace is fine.

Another thing to consider - if designing for print, then make sure 'Mode' is set for CMYK.

Insert > Mode > CMYK

Only use RGB mode if designing for the web.
