You'll have to increase the character spacing as well, so that each
character has the same center not just the individual word/phrase.  I don't
think this is going to be exactly a bevel effect, but on small enough text
it might appear like one.

Well, I'm speaking from imagination here but I imagine the effect could be
obtained by creating a series of layers to one item in a loop, changing the
alpha transparency slightly each time as well as shrinking the size of the
image.  You'd start with 75ish alpha level and then loop through one level
at a time up a to 100 or something like that, shrinking the text gradually
and building off the same center each time.

Try it and tell me what happens, I am curious.

Cheers,
Nathan

  Hi, is it possible to create a beveled text using GD.
  Going through all the classes I have not come across any algorithm which
  explains beveled text.
