					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: http://www.photoshopcafe.com/tutorials/diamonds/diamonds.htm  |

 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 ![]() _________________ mad as a badger and twice as furry  |

					 I concur, David. Lexus, your friends seem a little immature when they say such stuff best to ignore them or find more enlightened friends. _________________ mad as a badger and twice as furry  |
