The tree looks beautiful! This has been a wonderful group effort Merry Christmas everyone!
I have to say that the final tree is a well thought out, a very touching tribute to Mr. Bill Taylor. I'll just say I have certainly shed some tears when considering all the beautiful things that Bill represents and the far-reaching effects he has had on any and all members of this terrific forum.
As he was certainly a star on these forums, and much more, it is such a befitting remembrance.
Beautifully done friends,
The snowflake is beautiful, thanks Francis. I hope we can get a nice blow up of the tree when it is finished.
Are we missing the naughty dog that Francis gave us?
@ Grace, yes, we are missing the pup-in-the-box, sorry!
I'm sort of under pressure for closure on this collaboration as we get closer to The Big Day! Barb and I don't even have a tree in the livingroom yet and I HAVE to get a December video out for the Xara Xone.
I will make the whole tree with ornaments available as a Xara document, and it's going to be large, in the next few days, okay?
My Best,
Gary
The tree looks splendid Gary and the star on top by Francis is great, also a lovely tribute to Bill with the card, a man we will all miss very much. Getting a larger version of the finished tree will be good as it is a splendid effort by all who contributed to it and non more so than yourself Gary for making it possible.

I'll tell you all what:
I'll try ("try" is the operative word here!) to add Frances' naughty pup to the composition, and then zip up my working file that has all the elements in it, and post a Dropbox link, only because I don't want to put more large traffic on tg's server space—and try to do it over the weekend, okay?
It's 21MB and it's going to stay that way, because XAR files don't squish.
I'd ask that everyone is respectful of the ornaments that others have posted and are in the file, however, that said, it might be interesting if anyone wants to rearrange the ornaments a little.
I admit that this was our Maiden voyage on this collaboration and I could have organized it better.
Deal?

Frances, that is a splendid star tree topper. Thank you for doing that.
Seeing it is our Maiden Voyage, I think it should stay exactly as it is except for trying to get the puppy in if possible =D>

Okay, then this begs a question:
Would our group (and anyone who wanders in here, too) prefer just a high-res JPEG instead of the *.XAR file?
It would be easier to share, and as you say, stygg, it's probably okay just the way it is (and we'll do better next year!)
?, everyone ?
Thanks!
