Hi
Here are the links to download xara 3D and xara xtreme - you need both.
http://www.xara.com/downloads/xara3d/
http://www.xara.com/downloads/xtreme/
Egg is pointing out that the rules say we cannot do this for you - but if you download the programs and do it yourself we can help when you get stuck.
This thread gives all the basic info to get started.
I have attached an example from your image - this was actually traced with the automatic tracer and not by hand, since it works well here and I'm short of time - once you have downloaded the programs we can point you in the right direction
.
Good luck.

Re: Help please. Make football logo spin
Thanks mate I downloaded the program. I tryed to import my .png and/or .gif pictures in Xtrem and saved the files like a .xar file.
When I tried to import this file with xara3D 6 the program said me :
This file contain does not contain any outlines.
How it works so ??? PLZ
What the easiest way for best auto tracing mode ?
( my .png have a transparent background, I must do the transparant again with xtrem ??? )
P.S: sorry for my english cauz i'm french ^^'

Re: Help please. Make football logo spin
you need to convert your png bitmap to a vector shape using xara xtreme.
the usual way to do this is to trace round it by hand using the shape editor tool as described at post #7 of this thread.
it is a skill that is well worth learning because it is the basis of so many vector functions in xara but takes some practice to master.
here is Eggs video on tracing by hand:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=G8XgHkZo1J8
the alternative to hand tracing is to use xara's bitmap tracer tool.
before you can do that though - you will need to modify your png.
it needs to be a high saturation level black on a white background.
I have the method for complete bitmap tracing method somewhere - I will post it soon as I can find it :o

Re: Help please. Make football logo spin
I become insane !!! I don't know how it works in auto mode

Re: Help please. Make football logo spin
I saw on the program I can " import a vector pic " My logo is a pure .AI file.
So how I can export it as a .xar file PLZ Step by step if it's possible thanks... :(

Re: Help please. Make football logo spin
Well scuse Its me again ^^' I can paste my logo from illustrator in Xtrem.
So it's vectorised on the page. How I export right now cauz it's don't work.
Thanks for your support Vince. :p

Re: Help please. Make football logo spin
if your importing an ai file into xara xtreme it need to be in legacy .ai8 format to import
properly as far as I recall
if you have done this and it is in pure vector format you should then be able to paste it from xara xtreme directly into xara 3D.
if you are having problems you could post up the .xar file with the imported logo so we can take a look

Re: Help please. Make football logo spin
and for the record here is the bitmap trace file :)
creating the logo in xara 3D is a two stage process - you import the shape, and then use the original bitmap to texture it.
you cannot import the completed logo in one go.
the attached file covers the first of the two operations starting from bitmap

1. Copy and paste version from illustrator : colour good
2. Second version " import ai8 ( invalid shape detected in the importation )
3. third version, I colored the vector section from the ai8 for keep the best color

Re: Help please. Make football logo spin
dosn't seem to like the first true.
as for the second - despite the error message it should work - if you import it into xrar3d you should get something like the attached screen shot.
you then need to adjust the bevel extrusion and shadow settings and then import the texture - ie a bitmap of your logo. This may need size adjustment after importing.

Re: Help please. Make football logo spin
sorry, what the best option of avi exportation ?
-
Re: Help please. Make football logo spin
the default options should be fine for windows media player or real player, internet explorer etc.
true color gives better quality than 256 colors but bigger file size and may not be necessary if colors are limited in your original file.
other codec options are really for specific applications as I understand it - I am not an avi expert :o ;)
well done!

Re: Help please. Make football logo spin
thanx a lot again YOU save me :)

Yes finally did it ! :)
How I can make a second 3d effect on the "KS" letters ? PLZ

Re: Help please. Make football logo spin
at the top of the xara 3D forum there are some tutorials - take a look at Mikes:
Making a bitmap logo spin in Xara3D Part 2
[here:http://www.talkgraphics.com/showthread.php?t=27403]
basically you need to make KS shapes and import them into xara 3D on a new line then adjust line spacing so that they 'overlap'

Re: Help please. Make football logo spin
I imported my vectorized KS in the second line of the text but I can't up my line more than that. May you the check the file PLZ ? :confused:

Re: Help please. Make football logo spin
Hi Kaiser.
Change the heading size from your 400% down to 100%.
Change the 'KS' size from your 100% down to 24%.
Both objects can be re-positioned along their vertical path by going into the 'Text options' window and adjusting the the 'baseline shift'.
I would also advise that you erase the 'KS' from the bitmap image (texture) and leave it blank, or you will have 2 versions of 'KS'.
Further more, on your texture image, if you fill in the white areas with the same green as your outer foliage, when you apply this bitmap onto the heading, you will not see the messy white areas where the green should be.
PS should it not be 'Productions' instead of 'Production'?

Re: Help please. Make football logo spin
Hello, Charbuls, as Salaam suggests, start a new thread, and explain your difficulties, and we can see how to help, but we are not going to just do the work for you.
I am closing this thread now.
