I am looking for someone who can convert this



to this on the fly



Swift 3D can do it as long as the first image is in .ia format but I need to do it with bitmaps or jpgs any suggestions?

If you're going to want people to do it for you, maybe you should post in the graphics contest forum

I think you'll have a hard job extruding a bitmap. Lightwave can only do that with .ai or .eps files, and I think that will probably be the case for any 3d app. They will need a mathematical representation of the curve (i.e. a vector) to transform.

Hmmmm... maybe it could be screen scraped into an .eps? Any ideas on that?

Not necessarally whym though if somone wants to take on the job I'm all for it. but right now I'm just fishing for suggestions.

ok so I now have solved the first problem and I can convert the .jpg into EPS Vector. Next. Anybody have a solution for doing the extrusion from eps with source code in say .net or C++ ?

lol what is the prize?

it is easy to do with illustrator - there is plugin to do that.

you dont need any plugins in illustrator to do that.
