Thank you.

When I rendered the '3D Extrusion' I used the settings shrink and spherical

Nice lettering! Also your blog "https://gimpnewby.blogspot.com" looks impressive! Good luck with it (I know you will do well as you always do).

Thanks Pat, I have only had one comment so far, but I hope to change it all when the next gimp (3) comes out. Since there will probably be more new features or different in some way....It comes in handy when wanting to show people quickly how to do something or what something does. But like I said I am not well versed in gimp. A long way from it which is why I have linked places where I know people can get help.

You must have spent an enormous amount of time preparing the resources for your blog Sallyanne. I'm sure it will prove to be very useful for new users.

Very nice work here done by skinnyhouse, teapot, sallyanne and everyone else I didn't mention. I wonder if even the mighty Adobe can replicate some of these?

@ racer
Thanks Skinny. Heaps of those sites around but most of them now are for earlier versions.

Hopefully with the release of Gimp 3 will come clarity and support for GEGL through the procedural database in Gimp.

Thank you Racer :bigthup

Here is one using very thin characters (and a rather shameless plug for the tools).

Now that is a stand out effect Sallyanne. :gimp

This one is a real cheat...
Individual characters given a different 3D amount/direction.

Is there anything more satisfying than the tactile pleasure of polished, carved wood?
I can smell the the beeswax from here Racer! :bigthup
