Pumpkin Carving/Decorating
Now that we are into October I thought that this would be fun. I'm providing the pumpkin and I am inviting you all to use Xara to carve it or decorate it.
The file contains the pumpkin and its stem which are two separate images and some vector leaves and a brush. You can add to it, put it on a different background, whatever you want.
So fire up your Xara software and fire up your imagination!

Angelize:
Nice tonal/surface-texture on the pumpkin. And the border is perfect.
Excellent job/design!
Re: Pumpkin Carving/Decorating
Thanks :) guess what? That pumpkin was originally a Xara extrusion! I converted my image to a png because I used Filter Forge on it. Anyway I'm looking forward to seeing some imaginative Jack 0 Lanterns in this thread! :)
Re: Pumpkin Carving/Decorating
:-bd That's a great drawing, Frances.
Re: Pumpkin Carving/Decorating

Had to make an adjustment to one eye and the position of the face.

I just don't see you as an angry person, Larry.
So, you'll have to have another go and make a happy pumpkin!

@Rik. I'm not.
@ Frances, I don't know what Lilliputians are so I think they are Larryiputians. Actually the name strikes a distant memory. I have always liked seeting art showing "little people" and fondly remember "Teenis Weenies's"

The Lilliputians were little people from Gullivers Travels, who tied Gulliver up and held him prisoner.
Ahem now back to topic, that fuzzy pumpkin looks like something I found in the back of the fridge yesterday! :) Thanks for participating Steve!

Dagnabit! I forgot to upload the sound.
Still, goes to show what imagination can do Frances, if you can hear the wolf howling!
Actually, I wanted to move the background glow quite a way down.
Changes the look quite a bit, but I don't think I will upload another image, just for that!
