Is it possible to turn a 2d image into 3d without remodelling it?

check out my splash page. The 3d text was done in flash, without Swift3d… (if you like the way it looks, i can show you how it was done…)

did you need an Ohm? Its in windows character map…

Hey Majeye,  
i checked our your site [thru your sig] it was very cool.

The image on the top left, i am trying to achieve exactly that.

I am not looking for an “ohm”, i am looking for an “aum” or “om” sign [hindu religious symbol] see [here](http://www.amritji.org/aum.JPG)

I just want it to be metallic…exactly like the logo from your site :beam:

Thanks!

are you talkin about the MJ logo in the upper left hand corner?? if so, that 3d effect was created in Flash. The trick is to duplicate the shape, and scale it down slightly, and then connect the corners to eachother, much like the technique used in drawing one of those 3d boxes on flat paper…

Ive always found it pretty handy to just use Discreets Plasma when working with integrating 3d in to my flash.
