Designing a gadget text effect online

It's about producing a 3D text effect that reminds gadgets and related tech subjects. It's a theme that interests everybody nowadays.

Start this one by navigating to a free online tech logo generator. There you should configure the text maker this way(you don't need to change the shadow configuration):
- 3D text style: 6th option;
- Text: GADGET (type as you need);
- Font size: Big;
- Margin: 4;
- Background color: B0FFFF;
- Get as a transparent PNG file: unchecked;
- Font name: You're Gone.

Following these steps, we create a tech logo as shown below (click to see in real size):


Extra tips:
- this effect can be made with an anti-aliased transparent background (select the "Get as a transparent PNG file" item);
- beware a very dark background hides the external shadows, and it decreases the 3D look of the final logo;
- be sure always to select a very regular and geometric font to use with text effect (as you know, electronic devices are very regular):
- the fonts offered by this software are shown sorted alphabetically, so it's very easy to find by name any font you want to use;
- create many interesting tech text effects by using these free 3D tech text logo generators.
