    Default Re: How would I make the big golf ball on the bottom right look more pronounce/3d?

    Just some little modification, making the golf ball a little bigger and putting some shadows on it and the grass to ancor the ball to the ground.

    Same as Marco with a shadow.

    I rebuilt the design with a Mould and dappling of the text to enhance the depth on a fresh ball.

    I think trying to get a golf ball to 'pop-out' of a background of other golf balls is fairly difficult. I'd remove the those other balls first.

    Then get your golf ball to be outside-the-envelope of the golf group photo.

    I've added a gausien blur to that section of the part of the photo the ball covers to again give it a bit of depth of field.
    (I've left it as I created the blur in the attached .xar but you could make it a single image once you've got the effect)

    Finally adding an animation further draws the eye to the [Acorns] ball.

    First one is better because it is more readable. But well done.

    Probably not a popular approach, but I play a lot of golf and coloured balls are very popular. All the above are great ideas from folks with far more talent than me. I might make the ball yellow.
