Turn 2d Image 3d?

Hey all...I've been animating with Maya for years, but know next to nothing about modeling and texturring etc.

I have a 2D image that I'd like to make 3D (A simple logo with text) and then put a sort of brushed steel texture onto it

Any help would be muchly appreciated. Thanks

Well it depends on what you mean by that. Elementary its not possible, but you could vectootize it and extrude, but again it may or may not be what you want.

Basically 2d never really tirns out to a good 3d object.

Let's got with vectorize and extrude.. that sounds like what I need
