    Tabian, I can only join in with the thoughts of the previous posters. That's what I like about this forum - of course it's about tools and how we use them, but it's so much more. There's so much love and empathy floating around.

    I love these tools

    I was going to post this, but, then I thought, "This is a post as well, isn't it?!"

    This is what I'm currently working on in DP7. Its a detail from a 6 letter text to which i wanted to add a grunge effect. The font I used was a stencil font that already had a spray-paint effect and I embellished this by creating two clones of different colours, both given a fractal plasma transparency with a profile that punched holes through to the two text versions beneath.This method turns the text into pixels, so as I wanted a pure vector set of objects, I used the bitmap tracer to convert back to vector shapes. I had a white outline around the individual letters, and when re-vectorized, some spurious coloured shapes resulted. I changed the colour of the art board to a teal colour to contrast with everything and better to see the unwanted lighter colours. The end result will be a three colour vector grunge text effect. I still have one letter left to do.

    Must be bored on my job. Anyway, this is my first Xara picture. Hope it's big enough to see.

    ZEBtoonz, I like this--I like your style. Can I be you when I grow up?
