    It is me in the background (the king of the house...) when the wife catches me on the computer, playing around with the 14th version of a Xara image, at 3:14 AM... [img]/infopop/emoticons/icon_smile.gif[/img]

    What do you think?

    You've captured the moment wonderfully, Risto.

    I know the feeling when my long suffering wife of 25 years calls from the dark bedroom, are you ever coming to zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz.

    I love this image Risto. My wife cannot understand how I can spend 10-12 hours at my job and then another 3-4 hours at xara and this conference. She cannot understand what a stress reliever Xara is for me. Whilst I don't feel like a king fish (?) I do recognize that contemptuous look of the female devil. All I need is a little respect...

    Hi Risto,

    I love your drawing. I've been divorced for 6 years and I still remember that look [img]/infopop/emoticons/icon_eek.gif[/img]

    dare to think. I would just slide of my chair and creep upstairs and be very very quiet. And I have done more than 33yrs of martial arts. Good image, love the colors.......Tao (the meek )jones [img]/infopop/emoticons/icon_rolleyes.gif[/img]
