Mission Impossible?

[iamtheblues]

Many moons ago I posted a similar thread to this, (can't remember what it was called so I can't link to it) but as there are many who have joined the forums since then, I thought I'd give the idea a new coat of paint and a fresh airing.
You will be told by a message that part of the process of making this graphic (that's the background, not the text) can't be done in Xara Xtreme. It was made using a contoured blend which was given a bevel which was extruded.
I liked the feeling of depth that this method produced. The text is not a font, I don't believe it exists, it's certainly not free as far as I know, so I made a bitmap trace of a graphic from the internet, and separated out the words from the background and made it transparent in all the right places (the loops).
Saludos,
Bob.
