Thanks, I finally got it working. I installed "Eye Candy 7" and now can give elements a beveled/chiseled look. Thanks!

Thanks. I feel like I tried that but I'll keep messing around with it. I wish Flexi would be more explicit with their instructions!

Flexi's documentation is very vague on how to get Adobe Filters into Flexi. This is what they say: Is the "Adobe Plug-ins" folder in the SAI program files or the Adobe program files? Can you use Adobe's own filters/plug-ins or do they have to be third party? My goal is to use a Bevel plug-in...
