Here's the first part of my Diablo III tutorial series. It doesn't use any plug-ins, so you should be able to recreate it with CS3 or later.
You'll need to download the following assets before starting:
Font - http://www.dafont.com/blade-2.font
Ornate Vector - http://www.vectoropenstock.com/2451-F...
Project file will be available for download from shortformvideo.com once the series is complete.
Diablo III is available for purchase from http://us.battle.net/d3/en/purchase and will be released on the 15th of May. Logo and trademark remain the copyright of Blizzard Entertainment.
