I just installed Designer Pro 6 and created my first website with it in record time using one of the templates. What a great tool! Check it out!

Well done Catharina, it's a great product isn't it?
If someone tried to make me dig my own grave I would say No.
They're going to kill me anyway and I'd love to die the way I lived:
Avoiding Manual Labour.
Thanks so much for the compliments. Have now obtained the text and posted Jeff's info on the About page. Also refined and moved contact page to the last.
With Jeff's Gallery I just posted some pics that Jeff had sent me on a repair and restoration job. However, I would really like to be able to replace the images in the original template gallery so that the lightbox effect is retained. Is there a tutorial on how to do this?
Kindest regards,
Catharina
ignor me, I'm still reading help files and have discovered the web videos!

My next lesson is to learn how to do pop-up levels....still reading :-)
Very nice Catharina!
I share your feelings
I have actually used Xara for many years because of its excellent vector performance, but never used it for web before I recently upgraded to Designer Pro 6.
I have been fighting with html, css, php, Joomla, Homesite and text editors for many years, trying to get things look the same in most browsers. Never really happened... It was really impressive how with Xara you could make a site in a short amount of time, and it shows up in all browsers exactly as designed
I just remade in Xara a page (and cut down from 4 to 1 pages) which i had spent about a week on in Joomla, making template and fine tuning the css. Took an hour, which was mostly spent removing perspective, distortions and glare from the images. And it looks identical in all the browsers I've tried http://lindve.no
The Xara power is definitely impressive, but it comes at a price. It does produce html code that is quite messy with all the <span> tags, if you need to do some hand coding on it later. It uses a lot of inline css too, which is not so good for extending your code in an external editor. And it does produce pages/images that are larger than if made with html/css.
But as long you handle the web pages alone it's perfect for most types of normal web pages.
But it is not really for CMS, blogs, webshops or other database-driven sites?
