IMO you have no idea how realistic you can get the image to look EG.

1.) Try to edit the material properties (Right click on the object), now
change the shadow/surface items.

2.) Adjust the render settings, shadow settings (Somewhere in the pulldown
menus).

3.) To manipulate the text further than you think you can, try Right click
on object and use one of the edit tools, or under the EDIT pulldown menu
 this will only work on the original scaled image.

4.) If your video card is a 'piece-of-shit' (opinion only) you will never
get to see a 'great' image no matter what software package you use,
especially in a 3D package. Your best bet is to use a OpenGL compatible EG.
VOODOO 2.

5.) The only problem I have with Micrografx 3D is that the images come out
too good and I have to tone the down for the Internet.

Send me a demo of what you want and I will show what it can do.

or visit my pages (remember these images have been reduced by upto 75% in
quality).
