Creative Suggestions needed (please...)

Just a quickie. Needs a lot of sprucing up.

....... However, that swinging thing certainly needs a tutorial!!!!!

To enable the "IT Club" text to swing from the letter 'b', one will have to centralise the 'b' as shown in the diagram using another marker (a blue dot to the far right of the letter b). If you did not do this, the text would swing about the letter 'c'. The text and marker are pasted into X3D as one single object. After you have swung the whole image 90 degrees so that it swings vertically and have finished the whole image you can adjust the image and frame to hide the dot (as explain by Mike earlier). Another method (if the text was not vertical) would be to type in spaces after the text in order to move the text (and centre) towards the right.
The animation was made using the 'Swing1' animation option.
The words 'The Kids' was also positioned using a similar dot to position the 's' to the centre ie. above the letter 'b'. The text was also positioned vertically using the baseline shift in 'Text options' (Alt-T).
In my version, if one looks closely, you will see the top text also 'swing' slightly and intermittently. This was achieved making it swing in a different axis. The swing is intermittent because I copied (selected) the whole group of objects (while in 'Text Options') then I inserted a page break and then pasted the objects to create a second page. I altered the 'The Kids' text to swing in the second page so the you are actually viewing 2 animations.

How do you come up with these techniques?! Great thought processes, undoubtedly. Thanks, again, Anas!

Just a rough creation.
