Conquest

Here's the final result. I didn't want to go too crazy on the glass effect so I limited it to one object... and this is pretty close to the actual size so the logo will be so small I didn't bother doing any "shinys".

You know what was screwing me up? lol... I didn't realize the pic I was looking at was a zoomed in version of the logo Jake made. It took a good nights sleep to figure out what I was looking at. So here's what I've got so far, I'm going to keep working on it, still messing around with the shiny's... great tutorial. BTW, Jake... your photos on your flicker page are awesome and I'm now studying strobist: lighting 101. Time to dust off my Nikon.

First, this is an awesome tutorial, it would be even more awesome if I could get through all the steps. I've been messing with it for about a week but keep getting stuck at step 12. I know I'm missing something basic because I've poured through the thread a dozen times and nobody seems to have trouble with it. How do you get from "make a small (white) line over an edge of your logo/text" to this: Like I said, I'm sure I'm missing something simple. I like what I've gotten so far, but it seems unfinished and I really want to complete it so any help you guys could give me would be appreciated.
