tony love everything you do and this is just another example of your work. :clap

We all do our own creativity slants for a personal reason but I wondered how it would look with "Tony" in a color and "Steele" in a metal.

Hi There,

This tutorial works fine even with urdu fonts.
Interlaced words have similar meaning.

Infact Urdu text is witten from Right to Left which is contrary to English.

Order of Urdu Words:
3rd Word should be first in Urdu text.
2nd should be 2nd in Urdu text.
Ist should be the 3rd in Urdu text.

Simply can't figure out how to 3D the background layer, I'm using >filter>render>3D extrusion (tried every which way) on a patterned filled white layer, can anyone help please? - in Peace RJKD

What do you mean by "3D the background layer",
can you explain?

layer

"EDIT: It looks like this if you 3D the Background layer, and add a drop shadow to it:"

I hope this helps you help me Wallace - in Peace RJKD

I know I can be hard work, however I think my 3D extrusion may not be working? I followed Warriors tut -
16. With the "Visible" layer still selected, go to "Script-Fu>3Dtext>make>3d and select it. (works perfectly)
I can't 3D anything other than text, I may be using the 3D extrude wrong somehow but I've tried all ways I can think of, I get either a black or transparent layer added to the stack? - in Peace RJKD

The 3d extrusion script that you want to use,
is under Filters>Render>3D extrusion,
if you have it installed.

Go to "Image>Canvas Size", and make the canvas larger. That's the problem. There's not enough room to extrude.

I only had one question.
What is it that happens when click edit>clear, it get select none but I have seen this mentioned before. I just don't know what it does.
