I liked this tutorial. I've made wires, before, but I've never gotten the metallic effect quite right. Now I will. Thanks!

This is probably the best wire tutorial i have ever seen and considering how long i have been searching for the optimal way to do wires i would say i have seen quite many... this one beats them all by far.

Not only can you shape them as you want but have the ability to use this rounded brush with it...

The possibilities are endless, colors, lighting, shape, transparency...

Thinking about making a clear glass design with glass wires. This would be even cooller as a png picture in the background selected by style sheet (skin selection) with the glass design on top.

With the IE7 transparency - its all possible and out there... have fun people's.

Thnx again for a great tutorial that has possibilities that just can't be ignored.

Thank you for posting this tut... now, using any color, I can give my wires a more metallic feel when needed...
