Contest 71: Bling bling
A slightly different Challenge this week. Here's a single word, and I'd like you to turn it into a piece of jewellery (or jewelry, depending on your locality). Be as over the top as you like - gold, diamonds, precious metals - but do remember that all the elements need to be tied together. We can't have any letters or dots falling off!

High res is here.

Hi Metacool

Yes, its a great effect - and quite a common Photoshop technique.

You can have a go yourself by checking out Scott Kelby's Down & Dirty tricks book or one of the thousands of tutorials for 'bling text' online.

Heres one:

Strange that Scot Kelby claims credit for that technique but his tutorial seems to have been directly taken from the much better Photoshop Most Wanted 2 book by Friends of Ed authors Colin Smith & Al Ward, either that or they poached his technique. Down & Dirty certainly watch out Steve they could be poaching from you next

Re: Contest 71: Bling bling
I concur, David. Lexus, your friends seem a little immature when they say such stuff best to ignore them or find more enlightened friends.
