3D ball in Fireworks

Type your text and give it a gradientFirstly create a ball of any colour. Add an inner shadow with these properties:
Colour: 6600CC
Size: 35
Opacity: 24
Smoothness: 10
Angle: 57

The colour used in this example is: 9999FF.

Type your text and give it a gradientNow copy two more circles and align them like in the image. Select both circles by holding ‘Shift’ and click on:
Modify > Combine > Punch
There should now be a slim semi- circle shape. Click on the objects panel and turn the opacity to 50.

Type your text and give it a gradientNext draw a square underneath the semi-circle and click on: Modify > Combine > Punch. You should now have the bottom part of the semi circle cut off. Repeat this step but draw the square on top of the circle and ‘punch’ it and the semi-circle will know look like a reflection.

Type your text and give it a gradientFinally create a circle behind the fist circle. Use the transform tool and stretch the circle on the opposite side. Add a gradient blur effect with a radius of 4.1.
