Shape gradients: Oh sure you can use a plugin, this is for those times when you can't get the control you need with a plugin.
Drippy text: I think text effects is a lost art. When I watch a movie, I like to look at the credits and see the text. Is it a font, or was it created in a way that all letters have a unique appearance?
