    Great contributions Xarans!

    Mike - The buckyball was exported from SketchUp as a pdf file. That was imported into CorelDraw 10 where it was saved as a .cmx that I was able to import into Xara. The buckyball.xar file is exactly as imported. Unfortunately this process does include lines as well as the shapes.

    Creating the buckyball in SketchUp didn't really involve creating anything because it was a 'primative' from the component library. That said, SketchUp actually is a very easy-to-learn 3d modeling program that is fun to use. The training tutorial movies at the SketchUp site are every bit as good as the Xara ones --- helping a new user to be productive very quickly.

    I'm looking forward to importing more 3d models into xara for rendering. They seem to be very complementary to each other.

    Regards, Ross
