    Idon’t know why??::::::::::::::
    I can make superman style lettering 100% in xara X
    I used Futura.LTBT, or Tahoma B or Gothic 725 Blk bt and with mould tool in Xara you can make the form what you want ++ some Shapes you have the IIID Look, another way, after the use from Mould tool, you can clone the Shape twice put them back and blend between the tow clone Shapes. thanks to Xara Mould and blend tools.
    Thanks...

    Cool, thanks for the input. So heres what I have done: I cloned the shape, put to back- offset, back is red, front is yellow. Blend, and used a 35 step. That takes care of the problem I was having with saw teeth.
    But now I need the top of the lettering to be red, and in between to be black, like what you have. How do I get to that point?

    Thanks

    Hello!
    It’s me again, i have downloaded your Xara file and i see you did it well, very well.
    and if you want to use the Blen Method you must change the color to lineal fill with red and black
    if you want to use the Shapes Method, then you do’t have any broplem like Saw teeth.
    thanks...
    Lord

    But your super guy looks way too much like Superman. I think, if DC Comics found out about this they might want to talk to you about copyright infringement. The Super "S" is too spot on as well. http://www.talkgraphics.com/images/smilies/eek.gif

    Just a friendly warning, but ya didn't hear that from me!! http://www.talkgraphics.com/images/smilies/biggrin.gif
