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.

Under Layer Style(Layer > Layer Style) add an Inner Shadow and Gradient Overlay blending options to your black polygon layer.
