Hi,

Was wondering whether anyone could give a tutorial on how to create text like this:

Even if you could tell me the correct application to use for this?

Thank you in advance!

A friend of mine used Maya and got some really good results on his 3d lettering for his company.

Is 3D text allowed in graphic design? I've done it in Softimage XSi but I get told off by graphic designers and I don't show it in my portfolio as I dont want clients asking for theirs logos done this way.

To get that raytraced look you need a proper 3D app like Softimage XSI, Maya, Lightwave, Cinema 4D, Max
The end result of 3D the way it looks is down to the rendering software so choose a 3D app that comes with decent rendering. Mental Ray is the best one.
