Creating a Bevel effect

Add the Bevel effect to any image. We will create a generalized transformation URL, which could be used to apply the bevel effect to any image. In order to do this, we'll make use of variables, overlays, the colorize effect, the cut-out effect, and more. Here is the final result - The Bevel effect

Text overlays flowing together irrespective of text size

You can add text dynamically to the image by using overlays with syntax l_ in the URL. Here's an example of a URL with on-the-fly generated text transformation: Dynamic style

Text overlay positioning

Customize text overlay's position by setting the gravity (g in URLs) and the optional offset of the x and y. While the default text positioning ('gravity') is center, you can place your text in any other area of the image (tip: even outside the image's boundaries).

Default - center

South gravity
