    Excellent tut. Francis as always, here's my two efforts. Will try doing something like Maya using the techniques you have shown.

    I did 3, some better than others. Thank you Frances. I learned a few things here.
    On one I used a different font. the others used your suggested font but altered it plus a few drips.

    Never give up. You will never fail, but you may find a lot of ways that don't work.

    Stygg and Larry -- those are really nicely done!

    I experimented again on different textures using the font "Rocky Horror Show" this time which also looked kind of drippy... pretty fun!

    I like that RHS text Maya, looks wet and creepy, better than "It came from the swamp" text. I've left the Liquidism text in these two, just wanted to see how it would look with two backgrounds

    I thought I would try it with a different text.
    Great tutorial, Frances.
    The method ensures that the text is completely editable - change it to read whatever you want.

    Thanks Stygg and Larry! I like yours too, Rik! This method is really fun and useful -- and, as Rik says, it's nice that once you have a font set up like this you can then just type anything you want on and on and on like as if it's become a sort of template file for that font.
