Hi all-

I’ve searched the forums but unable to find exactly what I’m looking for there. I’m designing an invitation to a winter themed event. I’d like to put my nonprofit’s logo or the name of the event inside a snow globe. I’ve played with various tutorials on creating custom globes, but I think perhaps it would look best with an actual photo. There are a few nice images on istockphoto.com but prefer I waste credits, I’d like any advice on how to make my image look realistic (so the logo or text looks like it is INSIDE the globe and not on top).

Any suggestions? Many thanks in advance!
Rick

I know you said you looked, but there are quite a few very passable snow globe tuts listed on google, start with the one i linked above (the about.com one). if that doesn’t fit, see this search link:

seems to me the key to what makes it look like it’s inside is the glare on the globe being above the image that needs to be "inside".
