Ross, your site appears dramatic, but is it too dramatic ? There should be a theme and it should match the content. What is the purpose of the site ? The printing seems to get lost in the colours. Perhaps something simple would be a better starting place.

Elsewhere, you ask about tutorials. Have you checked the manual and tutorials on Xara Xone ?
Check out the following or its home page: http://www.xaraxone.com/html/the_tro...oeil_room.html

Do you have the double cd with tutorials ?

Glad you've discovered Xara X. We're all learning.
