Hi All,

Thought to create a new one for the Daily Dose theme
So here it is:(and please only post the picture,like in the previous 2 challenges)

Hey,

No one??

Hans are we to use only a circle and square or are we to use specifically the size and colour of the two shapes you have in your post?

A little more detail about what can and cannot be used would help.

Hi Bill,

Sorry for the lack off more specs,

-the two shapes can be scaled/resized
-they must remain the same color

I'm getting bored with this challenge now Hakoo (because I can't do it).

I can only manage it by using a black box rather than your turquoise one.
I think you should tell us know.
Please!

Hi Salaam,

You're right should have done this earlier,so here it goes:

take the circle>make it way bigger
apply bevel with following settings;
flat,inwards till a small circle inside
contrast = 100%
light angle = 270
light elevation = 0
apply some feathering
put the rectangle behind the beveled circle
ctrl+a
apply clip view
done

(thanks Ankhor for the metallic look xar file)

Hey!! I want my money back!!

I did all that before and got the 3rd effect when I added the 'feather'.
After playing with your file, I got all 3 effects just by altering the size of the image.

I think there must be a bug somewhere?
