Hmmmmm.... I used Xara 3d actually and PhotoShop... I might just write a tutorial if you think it would really be worthwhile.
Here's the basic rundown on how I made this piece. I first designed and angled each letter in Xara. Then I went to the file menu and selected export bitmap, which then gives options to save the file. I saved them as transparent PNG's which I opened up individually in PS. Then I created a new PSD and placed the individual letters into it as a layer. (Each letter a separate layer of course.) After editing, arraigning, and adjusting as I liked the wallpaper was done.
Hope this helps.

Oh also, just a tip, Xara is like make-up to women, the trick to using it is to make it seem like you hadn't used it at all (i.e. it's all natural beauty). It is often easy to spot a Xara 3d text piece (for me at least) and not that it's a bad thing, but there's so much more of a wow factor in not knowing.
Have a super day,
