- First start by opening up photoshop and making a new canvas
the size around 500x400.
- Then write text by
using the Horizontal Type Tool in a greyish color in a font that
fits in the image.

- Next right click on
the text layer and select rasterize layer.
- Now by using the
rectangular marquee right click on the text in the image and select
Free Transform.

- Then right click on
the text again and select perspective. Then change the angles of the
text by dragging on the corner squares and make it so your looking
at it from a top angle.

- Then duplicate that
layer. Then click on the original layer. Hold Alt+Ctrl+Enter and
press on the down arrow about 10 times. It should already start
looking 3D but now we need to add some effects.

- Now hold ctrl and
press E until all the layers under it are grouped together except
the background layer and the layer you duplicated earlier which
should be the first layer on top.
- Now double click on
the middle layer which should be the 3D part of the text and the
Layer Style should popup.
- Now change the Drop
Shadow settings to match my settings.

- Now change the Inner
Glow settings to match my settings.

- Now change the
Gradient Overlay settings to match my settings.

- Then hit ok. It
should now look something like this.

- Now double click on
the top layer and its Layer Style options should popup.
- Now change the Inner
Glow settings to match my settings.

- Now change the
Gradient Overlay settings to match my settings.

- And there you have
it, your own 3D text. Here is what my final product looks like.
