    Hello Ron, I find the easy way to make a chrome borders on the letter is to use a chrome bitmap,I made the letters and then aplly the bit map fill and after that I used the bevel tool to make the borders,here's the end effect.

    As I waited for the picture to download I thought a "sand rail" was going to be some kind of wading bird. Honestly!

    Helpful hint - if you group each pair of wheels with the axle before applying the shadow you'll avoid those overlaps.

    Working on a logo for water company. Main part of brief was to relate logo to its customers.

    Any thoughts would be appreciated

    It's a cute logo, Albacore. But why do modern logos always have to be complex, 3D and shaded? Try foil-blocking, rubber-stamping or even just faxing some recent major-league logos these days (e.g. most UK banks and building societies) and you'll get an unrecognisable splodge. Think simple; think line-art. That's my motto.

    Albacore,

    I wonder what it would look like if the head, hands and feet were more of a droplet shape rather than circles. On the head, it might look like a neck of sorts.

    Here is the latest thing I was working on... An ad for a local phone book.

    Ummm... Albacore,

    I have to agree with Simon on this one. "Keep It Simple St_p_d" (KISS) If it does not look good in 1 color, it really doesn't.
