Now this is my inner bevel I use most of the time, I have
a few others, again it depends on the font and the color
etc,
this is MY gradient glow settings, and I do change the glow
color as well depending on the tag, font etc
I apply this 2 times MOST of the time, again depending on the tag!!
and this is MY dropshadow settings I use 99% of the time
on my names, elements etc
and this is the finished product!
hope this helps those that have asked about my names
