Not being one for my graphic arts expertise, here's a few demos of what I see. http://css-class.com/test/images/text-shadow3.png This is what I mean by having a shadow and highlight and the reverse with a glow. http://css-class.com/test/images/text-shadow3.png Thus why I suggested text-shadow and text-highlight. Text highlight is layered above the text and the shadow is layered under. Both can be declared on the same line of text. [1] http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/www-style/2008May/0192.html Alan
