I deleted your two previous unsuccessful attempts to attach an image. Nice to see you be successful in this thread! I suppose your thread title loses its context without your failed attempts. Perhaps this note brings back the context and nobody will think you are an egomaniac. [img]/infopop/emoticons/icon_wink.gif[/img]

Great image! I like the style too.

By the way - In your previous attempts at posting attachments - you didn't have to start a new thread every time. "Post Reply" can be used to add a message to a open thread; "New Topic" creates a new thread.

Regards, Ross

The flowers look beautiful, and the moon without the detail adds a little something. I like it!

If you want to test the moon with some detail try these:

(1) Gary's method is quick and effective and works every time: http://www.xaraxone.com/tutorials/dec00/index.htm

(2) Cheat! And use a bitmap... [img]/infopop/emoticons/icon_smile.gif[/img]
Find an image of the moon at the NASA web site. Crop out the moon and use it with a transparency over a color you would like to use.

(3) Cheat! But keep it all vector... [img]/infopop/emoticons/icon_smile.gif[/img]
Find a NASA moon image - and make a trace of it and use it with transparencies (attached).

Play around with the different objects until you get the effect you want.

The .xar file is attached in the next post - use it as you wish.

Good luck!

Here is the final image from the December 2000 XaraXone Xara tutorial

The moon technique is explained in the tutorial.

Yes, you did it. Got the image posted and it is striking. A cosmic bouquet. I like it. Neil
