I'm wanting to achieve an effect with text in Adobe PS. I want to recreate the drop away shadowing that is in the D3 logo.

If ya know how to do this in PHP, go ahead and direct, I'll figure it out.
I'm new at this

I doid it in Corel Draw by creating an exact copy of the text and placing it behind, converting it to 20% shade of it's original colour then applying a gaussian blur to it.

I'm real n00b at this.

well it kinda works. I have another problem. making block letters.

It seesm that you need Adobe Illustrator.

Illustrator is a Vector based program like Corel Draw.

Much eaier to use IMHO.
