Raised & Colored Text?

[Matt]

I'm creating some buttons and I'm trying to figure out ways to highlight and color the text.

At first I was trying to color the text but of course manipulating the lighting changes the whole button color... which I can't do.

So... what should I do? Can I import text and lock the color so the lights don't mess with it?

Can I create raised text with it's own color value?

I'll attach the button I've created...
