Spider Clothes

A spider web hand traced in Xara , and vector warped in E3. Then back to Xara for more drawing and break shapes. Back to E3 for coloring. Assembled in Xara.

Rich

Which one is yours Rich? ;)) all kidding aside nice designs Rich.

Larry,

Just a little summer something.

Rich

What's E3?

Rik E3 is the Creature House Expression version 3.

Microsoft bought Creature House several years ago. I'm not sure MS still offers the last CH release on their site. For a few years after the buy out it was available free on MS.


EDIT: Good News it is still available: https://www.microsoft.com/expression.../download.aspx

Bill,

A web drawing. You would need an older version of Xara to communicate With E3. I use EPS from Xara to E3.2, and PDF from E3 to Xara.
My methods were unknown. Many of the capabilities were removed in the transition to Design. I spent years working with environments. So, I remain with the E3/Xara in combination.

Rich

Thanks Rich.

Are you saying to use one of the Xtreme versions or should it be X¹, or the Xara X released from 2000?

Bill.

I use XXP3. You just need the eps export version before it was updated. Maybe XXP4 or XXP5 was when things were changed. E3 is old and used a version 3 PDF. You need to export out without rasterizing. It gives vector then. Rasterizing gives separate images with something like a transparency mask included.


Rich

A view of a vector warp group. A bitmap warp mesh is similar. As a stroke, you can flow a bitmap along a path.

Rich

The drawing.

hi Rich
I used your web to learn using graphics designer
I haven t E3 installed on my new computer windows 7 64 I don t know if it will work on itAttachment 90995
greetings

Germaine,

I would ask in the off topic forum. I remember it working in Windows 7, but nothing about 64 bit. You might look at the import and export filters. There must be something about the accepted versions. I didn't install GD5. There are similarities in capability, but called different names. You should be able to convert lines to shapes, add shapes, and then break shapes. That should give objects where there are web openings. It is the basic way I make dragon wings.

Rich

I just checked it out Germaine and it appears to work on my windows 7 64-bit machine.

Thanks I just installed it
greetings

it's really nice :] it kinda looks like princess lya's clothes lol
