Happy New Year and hoping 2015 brings some excitement to the new Xara product releases.

Thanks for posting your designs Rik and Gary. Very nice!

@ Gary -- I wish I could see the 3D effect in your stereograms, I used to be able to, but ever since I had cataract surgery on both eyes a few years ago I no longer have any focus accommodation as the lens implants are for distance only, I use readers for close work, but even that is very limited and my eyes tire easily now giving me fuzzy vision which varies over the day. Working details on art is now rather hit or miss.

Sorry to hear that, Maya. These are spaced for the 3D effect there is no hidden image in these.

I like your Japanese snowmen stereogram too -- very cute even though I miss out on the floaty fx. The cataract surgery at least is way better than going blind! One thing it also did is make colors appear a lot brighter than it used to be, shades are less yellow-tinted. I never noticed that before the surgery but afterwards things were very bright and colorful and I was constantly amazed even by the leaves on the trees.

Sorry to hear that Maya. I fully understand what you are saying. For a long time I could not read more than a sentence or two before my eyes pooped out. It has gotten better lately though. Even so I work at a very high zoom and even that is problematic. Frankly I think you do an exceptional job.

[Crow Haven]

Thanks so much, Larry. I certainly can understand tired eyes! I also find working with high zoom a pain since I'm only using a regular size laptop, so there isn't a lot of screen space to play with. I regularly miss things when I work at less magnifications and come back later wondering why I couldn't see it the first time around and have to do more corrections...and usually when its too late to edit my post with an updated image.

[wizard509]

I certainly understand Maya.

I'm not too happy with this but here ya go anyway. Best wishes one and all.
