   BeLight Software has released [1]Art Text 3.0, a major new release for
   the graphic design app that helps you create textual graphics,
   headings, logos, icons, mockups, badges, and more. The latest version
   adds a 3D rendering engine for creating 3D text and logo, plus the
   capability to convert 2D text or shapes to 3D. The update also includes
   more than 70 pre-designed templates to help you quickly create word
   art, logos, and buttons, over 750 hand drawn shapes, paint stains,
   watercolor blobs, and spots for 2D art, a variety of masks for adding
   textures and other effects, and more than 140 3D materials. Art Text
   3.0 also adds a layer content preview in the Layers tree, introduces a
   Colorize feature for changing 3D material color while preserving
   texture pattern, and brings glow controls for adjusting the luminosity
   of 3D materials. Upgrading from any previous version of Art Text costs
   $29.99 (including purchases from the Mac App Store). ($49.99 new, free
   update, 611 MB, [2]release notes, 10.10+)
