    Default Pumpkin Carving/Decorating

    Now that we are into October I thought that this would be fun. I'm providing the pumpkin and I am inviting you all to use Xara to carve it or decorate it.

    The file contains the pumpkin and its stem which are two separate images and some vector leaves and a brush. You can add to it, put it on a different background, whatever you want.

    So fire up your Xara software and fire up your imagination!

    Angelize:

    Nice tonal/surface-texture on the pumpkin. And the border is perfect.

    Excellent job/design!

    Thanks guess what? That pumpkin was originally a Xara extrusion! I converted my image to a png because I used Filter Forge on it. Anyway I'm looking forward to seeing some imaginative Jack 0 Lanterns in this thread!
