And all our love and support for your country so much affected by this human tragedy. Thanks to remember it!

to make the red ribbon look like it is crossing over itself?

I like the enameled pin look you have achieved, Mike. Very nice. And a worthy cause too.

I agree with Gary in that it looks like an enameled pin, and for that effect I don't think the ribbon should have an overlapped look.

Thanks for reminding us that the war on aids is far from over.

Ivan, thanks for the compliment and for your wishes for my country which is indeed suffering heavily. It is estimated that in fourteen years' time, one out of four infants in this country will be born with Aids. That's a quarter of our population; if you add those who will contract it during their lifetimes, the future looks very bleak indeed.

Gary, cross-over achieved. On an actual pin it could be done by making two shallow incisions on either side of the 'upper' part of the ribbon (simpler in Xara: just add highlights and shadows [img]/infopop/emoticons/icon_smile.gif[/img] — I love this program!).

Judy, now there's a version for you and one for Gary [img]/infopop/emoticons/icon_smile.gif[/img]

Mike.
