As of Internet Explorer 4 you can now do a combination of style sheets and style filters and / or html
to have images show through text in webpages.
The results are comparable to images and load much faster and are easier than learning graphic design.
In Netscape you will just see the regular text colors that you made it.
You can edit the text any way you chose and they will load equally as fast regardless of size.
Equally as important is it is read by search engines.
THE MOST IMPORTANT FILTER IS THE :
CHROMA FILTER
AND SECONDARY FILTERS TO ADD EFFECTS COULD BE:
DROPSHADOW
SHADOW
GLOW
WAVE
EMBOSS
ENGRAVE
ETC....
CASCADING STYLE SHEETS ARE NECESSARY FOR THE FINE TUNING OF THE TEXT.
font-weight
letter-spacing
word-spacing
font-weight
etc...
YOU CAN SUBSTITUTE REGULAR HTML IN SOME CASES.
ADDITIONALLY, JAVACRIPT OR VBS CAN BE ADDED TO MAKE THE TEXT DYNAMIC.
OR FLASH CAN BE PLACED INSIDE OF THE TEXT WITH SLIGHT MODIFICATIONS OF THE CODE!
An example of this effect can be seen at:
