Hi!

Now I've done some regular sized plastic buttons before but this time around the size is kinda small.

I'm trying 380px by 25px Having a rough time getting inner bevel to play nice!

Any assistance is most appreciated!

p.s. Is there a mobile friendly entrance to Gimp Chat?

I tried searching YouTube and I found all the stuff that I had already seen. I'm working on a button that is fairly slender.

Unless you know of one that deals with plastic or shiny buttons that are vertically narrow

exit: I did it myself!

Perhaps an image of what you are trying to achieve?
I have a tutorial (video) for plastic text.You could just as easily adapt this to a rectangular button.
If that is what you need.

A much clearer version here -
