    The shape I want is rather odd. I have Photoshop 6 as of now so I'm sure I can do it. What I want is:

    side view

    -
    -\
    -//
    -/
    -
    -
    -

    /


    I want so use the bubbled area for my nav bar title and the lower plateau for my buttons/links. If someone has done this I would appreciate a breif tutorial. I've tried with multiple layers using bevel/emboss but it just doesn't look right. I want it more sleel looking with curves rather than exact edges.

    Edit: Please be forgiving of my drawing. hehe One more question. How do I get a shiny metallic texture going?

    Thanks,
    -William

    Honestly, I have NO idea what you're trying to do. Could you post a link to what you have done so far or email me something, and I'll see if I can help you...

    If you do not already use photoshop plugins.. I suggest you look into getting some, there are many nifty effect tools available..

    I like some of the Eyecandy ones available from www.alienskin.com

    I appreciate the input.... I've decided to go with colored cells in order to get a nav bar up. Half of my family, who will be using this site, are on dial-up anyways so straight html is the best way IMO.

    Take care,
    -William

    You don't necessarily have to go with a really high resolution graphic that is large and loads slow just because you have a texture on your images. You can optimize many of them quite small and still have a very sharp looking effect. There are quite a few add-ins that you can download from Adobe Xchange that are user submitted and easy to use that will give you the 'effect' that you're looking for.
