Fun With 3D Graphic Effects
This is the plain Jane Internet
Brothers logo we started all of the fun with. Watch what it can become
as we apply some of the cool tools found in the graphics editors.
Using the flood fill tool in Jasc's
Paint Shop Pro, we've changed the color of the logo in strategic places and
added a simple drop shadow. You will notice the image is now slightly larger
due to the offset introduced with the 3D shadow.
Switching to Adobe's ImageStyler, here
we have added a beveled look to the logo, then applied a multi-color gradient
to produce the rainbow effect. A nice feature of ImageStyler is its built-in
textures and styles.
There are many shareware plug-ins
available that add striking effect and filters to your art work. One of our
favorites is Blade Pro from
Flaming Pear Software. Suitable for both Adobe Photoshop and Paint Shop
Pro, the Blade Pro filters produced the metallic gold change you see here.
We call it fun with bevels.
Enjoyment is what graphics editing is all
about. Toying with a Blade Pro black glass bevel and the Photoshop blue omni
lighting effect, we produced this image. Your graphics creativity is limited only
by your imagination, and maybe your software budget.
