FontTwister 1.4

FontTwister allows you to create stunning texts with amazing 2D and 3D effects. The program allows you to apply numerous combinations of effects, colors, textures, outlines, shadows, and frames to any word or phrase you want. Then you can print your creation, or save it as a graphic file that you can use later for your presentations, web pages, banners, brochures, etc.

The program offers a simple and intuitive user interface where all the required tools are close at hand. It includes eight tabs - Style, Text, Surface, Deform, Outline, 3D Bevel, Shadow, and Frame. Each one offers you a different kind of effect for you to apply to your text. You will probably want to start by selecting one of the built-in styles, and then modify it according to your taste (the program's trial version comes with 63 built-in styles, but you get 40 more right after you register it, and you can even download additional ones from their website).

The Text tab allows you to type or edit your word/phrase and select its font and basic effects (bold, italic, underline, justification, and opacity). The Surface tab, on the other hand, allows you to select a color or texture to be applied either to you text or to its background. Next is the Deform tab, and it allows you to select a deformation pattern for your text in the MS WordArt style. As its name suggests, 3D Bevel allows you to apply 3D effects to your text, both raised and lowered. I think that the Outline, Shadow, and Frame tabs are self-descriptive enough, and they do not require any specific explanation. more
