Did these jewels, rather quickly, in Photoshop, using the KPT5 ShapeShifter plugin filter. They just about make themselves, but it helps to play around with the shape, environment, and lighting controls. In my eyes, a must have plugin.

As far as doing it totally in Photoshop, perhaps you could ask Mark (the Keeper), over in the Guru Forum, for a small tutorial. He has a great new toot on his Photoshop Guru site on how to make plastic buttons, and I think a little hard edge tweeking of this could make for a nice jewel effect [img]/infopop/emoticons/icon_confused.gif[/img]
