    Default Olympic type rings

    Just a simple graphic.

    Xara file included. You can select the rings and change the bevel type.

    To avoid any trouble with using Olympic logo without use, I changed the graphic - instead of deleting it completely because it may be useful to see how to give the illusion of linked rings. (I used transparencies)

    Brilliant.

    I took some of the rings apart to see what you had done.

    Illustrator users could not do that!

    I do this by making an intersection of a duplicate ring, but you can't change the bevel with that method.

    Hi Bob, I tried the intersecting rings using transparencies as you shown and found it really good, I've used no bevel, just wanted to see how the transparencies worked out. I did a similar rings intersect in PhotoShop and that is pretty good too.

    I did a similar thing in CorelDRAW with PowerClip, in Xara it could be ClipView.
