I may have to reference the original symbols I got the colors from again. To save time I referenced the colors of prior symbols I made, and used the circular gradient.
Lastly, the design probably doesn't do any favors for the color. I can try a traditional gradient and see if that helps.
I have one set that I use often: Movies What would make a good all-encompassing symbol? My personal favorite is obviously Godzilla, but not sure this would rep the whole idea of movies. https://mtgcardsmith.com/user/jpastor/sets/25222
Photoshop: There are several ways to do step 3. A) Layer Style - Stroke. It's very easy, but not the best way if you want every corner to be sharp. Pen tool. C) Or this..
Here's the video I recorded when I was making one. (Sorry for the bad quality!)

It is simple but I don't think those gaps are visible on cards.
Oh ya, you're probably right XD

Edit: These symbols pop a heck of a lot more now.

Will probably read a lot better at scale without the extra middle "flower" lines.

You ever feel like... like what you want hasn’t been made up yet? All these wonderful designs and I don’t see anything I want to steal.
Yet.
Set symbols I post are for anyone to use.
The shading was rather interesting to work on...
