It has been a long while since my last question here, so here goes:

I’m working on a new site: [http://www.lbr-designs.be/newsite.html](http://www.lbr-designs.be/newsite.html)

However, I’ve got some problems with my reflection of the mouse-pointer.

The problem is that I don’t know how to create the fake 3D effect, because now when you move your mouse over “Identity” the reflection is above the real mouse. I was thinking to put a mask, so the reflection cannot go above the real mouse, but then there is no reflection.

I think you’ll have to work with lines, but then: which line do you have to take (see illustration)

Any ideas are welcome
