First, I don't have any idea on what effect you're after. Since there has been no response to your post, it is safe to say, no one else knows. So if you could provide us with a screen shot example it may help garner a response..

Hi, I'm new to the board, but I think I have an answer for Coach Ryan.

I think this is what he's talking about here:

I tried making a couple and here's what I did.

1. Click on the path drawing tool
2. Press down the shift key and then draw a circle, rectangle, shape, etc.
3. Go over and click the easystyles icon at the right of the screen
4. Select the Material Gallery
5. Select the glass style
6. Double click a style to apply it to your shape
7. Select the Material option at the top of the page
8. Choose a color
9. adjust your lighting so that it all comes from the upper left
10. Choose your reflection map or keep the one you're already using
11. Close the material popup
12. adjust the brightness and contrast
13. You've created something pretty close to what you were wanting.

Hi, I tried following your instructions TwiceWise, but I couldn't produce anything like the examples you have here. Did you make them in PI?

Those are not done with photoimpact. Those are from Photoshop. However the directions provide will provide something similar, not exact.
