Please help. can't get definition around a text. pulling out my hair :(

hi. i was following a tutorial to give text a 3D effect.
the tutorial is located here:
http://www.illustratortechniques.com/3d-text-effect.html
i am only two steps in and did exactly what was told but my text effect looks different than his. his text has definition so you can make out what it is whereas mine does not.
the screenshot of the difference is here:
http://www.macrochild.com/help.jpg
(mine is on the left. the tutorial is on the right.)
please help me i did this five times and i can't duplicate that image.

Hello,
In the texts 3D dialogue box you need to switch some sort of shading on, either plastic of difuse, or you could put a very small dark stroke around the outside of your text. It's probably the shading though, it's the surface drop down box at the very bottom (or if you have advanced on it's in the middle).
Regards
Paul

  • Please help - can't get itunes to work

    Hey - I would appreciate any help with the following:
    I have already downloaded itunes to my desktop and successfully created an account and downloaded to my ipod nano...however, today, suddenly, I can no longer do any of that - I logged in to the itunes store, but every time i click on the itunes store "is open" button, nothing happens - i do not currently have my nano plugged in, is that a problem, or am I missing something?

    just unplug it i have that problem when i plug my ipod in and i do my thing and try to unplug it and nothing happens and my ipod is still plugged in and itunes wont let me unpug it. just unplug your ipod. it does not harm it. this is becuase itunes does not see it so there for it is not really connected. as for your itunes not working try reinstalling it. i hope i have helped

    This alert is often the result of iTunes being blocked by firewalls on the computer.
    Update to the latest version of iTunes.
    Try turning off your Firewall to see if the issue is resolved (this includes the built-in Firewall or a third-party Firewall such as Norton Personal Firewall, McAfee, Symantec, etc.).

  • Please Help: Can't Get Into Browse

    My BookHobby.Com podcast appears fine in the search but it does not appear in Browse even though it has been five business days since I submited the podcast on 2/20. The rss.xml file looks to be ok in the category areas. The rss is visible at either feeds.feedburner.com/Bookhobbycom or at www.bookhobby.com/BookHobbyMan/Podcast/rss.xml if anyone wants to help me and take a look. If it does not appear in Browse and the rss looks OK how can I let Apple know? Without it appearing in Browse it might as well not be there as it's so hard to find. Help anyone? Thank you.

  • SOMEBODY PLEASE HELP, Can't get rid of Red Underlined Text

    So after I lost a major part of my script and am now prepared to  rewrite, now Every Font is in Red with underline. When I try to  backspace, it turns my original font to red as well. This script seems  like it's gonna be huge, judging the many impedents it's facing. I hope  there's an easy solution to this one. I've tried to change it from the text color, but those settings look ok,  black dot on white background. There's something going on that I can't  figure no matter what I'm trying.

    Looks like 'Track changes' is on for this document. Just turn it off from the toolbar [Review -> Start Tracking changes] in the authoring view itself.
    Also the changes that are marked as deleted (crossed), do mouse hover on the text and 'reject change' and for inserted text (red color with underline) do 'accept change'. This is just so that you don't need to type it again and the text would become normal.
    Thanks

    Hi, nportillo,
    The next time you attempt to reach Skype Customer Service, try again using a different web browser and choosing a different path through the various drop-down menu options presented.  Do not choose the obvious - you have already established that path is not working.  Also, look to approve a pop-up dialogue box which would connect you to start an instant message chat with a customer service agent. If you have pop-ups blocked in your browser settings, this will also impede reaching an agent.
    Skype is aware of problems reaching their customer service unit via the website, however people are getting through.  I have flagged your report for follow-up by those to whom I report.

    Elaine
