    Are we talking about [​IMG] ?

    To make it look "ok" this would take more than 15min, don't you feel asking too much for "free".

    hey Kerosene: where's the reflection?

    Also, your image was modified, there's a big green word 'SAMPLE' on it that wasn't on the original.

    well, I mean I did happen to notice something else too while you were doing that....

    There's a shadow behond the card on the first one, but since we know the card is on a reflective surface, I imagine there's also some refracted light reflecting off thw back of the card.....it looks kind of 'floating' on the solid black here.....

    Is there any way to add a dark grey - reflecty shadow behind it so you can see it's anchored in 3D space? I mean, the presence of the reflection kind of indicates the fact that it's 3D and there's a light source, wouldn't it be casting a shadow too?

    The reason you can't see that it's not just black on the other one is that it's on a white background......just my thoughts.....

    I find that to be a little harsh of a colour personally, it looks like a giant fluffy marshmallow when it's on black, but you got the idea bang on! Nice work fellas!

    Is prett hard to make reflection and shadow effects on black background..
    That's why most use white bg.
