Corel Draw Tutorial Windows Media Player Icon

My blog is about icons/logo and Corel Draw Tutorial. Today while listening to my mp3 on my music folder I decided to create a Windows Music Player Icon. It is an old Icon since my Operating system is Windows7 Starter it mainly supports most audio file like mp3 and wma file. If I have an issue with video or sound file adding or installing a codec is necessary to be able to play it on Media player. The Icon or logo is very simple here’s how: Create a new Corel Draw Document.

 Using the rectangle tool create a simple perfect rectangle – F6 shortcut of the tool. Add an ellipse tool F7 inside the rectangle object. (please see the figure below)

Using a flowchart tool add a rectangle inside the circle – It will look like a play button inside the ellipse.

The color of the Windows Media Player is very light. Its composed of light blue, orange and white.

Light Blue = R=0 G=255 B=255

Orange R=247 G=127 B=46

White R=255 G=255 B=255

Removing the all the outline and adding some effects will result to the image below. A very simple logo from windows I wonder what’s the new Icon for Windows8.
