I thought of some tool in DRAW itself, maybe drawing the icons then converting them to bitmap then applying some effect. Or only Photo-PAINT can do that? TIA.
My attempt. Yes, all within coreldraw.
Sorry Myron, but your option is not like the original. This 3d effect can be done with one click in other graphic design software but not in CDR or PP. I wish it could be done in CDR/PP.
I use just cdr and pp from 2008 and i explored from a to z but this 3d effect cannot be done. If yes, show here. Thx
Listen, offer Myron $50 I bet he'd show you the way.
Pay you way.
The Myron's option is poor, is not like the original.
You're obviously not capable of figuring this out Myron on his own time showed the techniques required to achieve this. He most likely didn't tweak the edits any more because it was a waste of his time and he assumed you had what it took to continue from that point.
Dimensional looks are an illusion of colors, transparency and light. That's it period, CorelDRAW has been able to do this since version 8. Much easier in current versions.
You talk a lot, prove what you claim with concrete examples.
