Interesting Frances. That reminds me of something I have been wanting to do for a long time. And that is make an image or face look like it was formed from clouds.

let's see I already posted a banner I have been working on and I was helped by quite a few people (thanks everyone) but I will post it here again. Even though not Xara (Ok, I plan on using it as a template for a vector version soon) I have been sketching this rainy weekend in Mobile Alabama. nothing special but here it is just for fun.

Ok Gary,

You talked me into it.....

I've been working on a website for my Faith (Baha'i) and one of those things is to put a calendar in it. You might remember giving me some help with that a few weeks ago, it's a coffee cup calendar and it works very nicely into Xara (DP8 (x))....Also, I had to use multi folders because I want to password protect some of the areas and fortunately someone asked the question on the site recently and I was able to follow links to get the overview of how to do that (and printed it out). The least I can do is let people know I didn't buy the program and the upgrades just to spend money...I love the Xara innovations and it's progressive attitude and the very reasonable cost compared to many other companies out there...anyway, enough soap box...

Here is something I have worked on from time to time for my desktop. There are two versions here. Which do you like best if either. I used one of them on my splash screen and the other for my desktop wallpaper, however I may use the same one for both.

I like the first one, the one with the 'sparkles' and light in it.....gives it more depth to me.....

Thanks Ed, that's my preference as well.

I think the hand is very good GCFL.

Thanks Wizard. I appreciate that.

I've been a bit preoccupied of late with, amongst other things, producing whisky labels, boxes, web site etc etc. Whisky, whisky everywhere and not a drop to drink, which is fine as I don't like it, but we are getting near conclusion now, thankfully.
The boxes shown here are mocked up and the label artwork shown is one of 10 variations for age, blended, single malt etc, etc.
Its amazing the regulations that apply to the design of the label and the prominance of the various bits of information that has to be shown.

I really like the light colored ones, the darks not so much (maybe it could be a "glow in the dark" )
