FresherImage.com : Macromedia Fireworks
Plastic Text in Macromedia Fireworks 4: Page 2

4. Now that color isn't too fancy. We need to add some more colors to the letter. I chose some bright ones. Add colors simply by pressing on the gray field between the two color fields. As demonstrated, put the light colors in the left end, and the darker colors in the right end. Drag the colors a little, to get the desired effect.

5. Now it's starting to look like something. Select the top letter, or the colored one, and add a Basic> Soft line> at 2 pixels> in white/#FFFFFF. (Ctrl+Alt+F4). Almost done.
6. We need to add the bevel effect now, to make it look "plasticish". Macromedia were so kind to add 3 plugins from Eye-Candy 4000. Click on Bevel Boss, which is located in the effects tab, under "Eye Candy 4000 LE". I used these settings for mine:

Bevel Width: 10.17
Bevel Height Scale: 100
Smoothness: 41
------------------------------
Bevel Placement:
Inside Marquee
------------------------------
Darken Deep Areas: 47
Shade Interior: /Yes

Now for the lighting. It's your choice where you want the light to come from. Experiment a little with it to get the desired effect.

Now for the Bevel Profile. As said before, experiment with it.

When I finished all these steps I got, this funky letter!
