Description:

This video was somehow automatically shortened by Youtube in Feb. of 2009. Instead of taking it down I decided to simply include a link to the full video on tutvid.com.

In this tutorial we will create the shiny text you see all over the internet! We will learn how to use masking and the gradient tool in Fireworks as we create the text! Have fun creating your text as you follow along!

We are going to look at the difference between Live filters and traditional filters, as well as how to apply, work with, delete, edit, and save Live filters as Styles.
