3-D , shadowing and rotation on a shape desing

[ozmosaics]

Hi there from DownUnder!

I am a newbie to BV and would like to know:

I am making some "chocolate - turkish delight" actually.....shapes for my website (I am a mosaic artist and my students are addicted to chocolate...say no more!) and this is what I am trying to do:

insert a shape and colour it (pink and brown, graded) no hassle here.
- Is it possible to now make the shape 3-D or use the shadow feature and also is rotation of the shape possible. I was able to do this in frontpage and can't seem be able to work it out in bv.

This is my temp home page whilst I do my new website (www.ozmosaics.com) and you can see the chocolate on it.

I am also trying to work out how to have some plates tossing on the screen and "smashing"....."don't just stand there, smash something" idea...but I will ponder that later on.

So for now, is the 3-D in shapes option possible in Blue Voda or can I make the things somewhere else and import them?
Thank you.

Cool page, you would have to make them somewhere else and import. BV is unable to do 3D but it does do a whole lot of other things. Take a look at the tutorials and see what it can do for you. I love BV.

Thank you for your reply - I have been playing around with ideas and it's great fun!
I am thinking of making a few lamb chop graphics for Australia Day here next week...have you seen the funny promo?
Anyway, thanks again
