Does anyone know how to make lettering look like it's engraged or carved into the background instead of sitting plonked on top of the element? (like in the scrapbookbytes logo at the top of the page!) I'm using photoshop 7 and the emboss filter is great, but I need to know how to reverse the effect.

Try changing your bevel direction from up to down in the style settings. In PSE when you click on the little f next to the layer name in the layer palette, the style settings window pops up and you can change the size of the drop shadown and direction of the bevel. I assuming it's similar in PS7.

HTH!
