We have an idea going over in the Xara Gallery about posting a forum-wide challenge of a symbol of renewal--the mythological phoenix--the idea is to create one with your program of choice in any style or version which you like. It would be so cool to see all the different varieties and versions people can use their imagination and come up with. It translates well into logo and abstract techniques--anything goes. There is already a posting in the Gallery and one in the Xara Gallery (info on the symbolism, origin,etc. can be found on pg 2 of the "Brandon Lee" thread in the Xara Gallery if anyone is interested).
Time to show off your favorite program.

But I may not get to participate so here is one done by hand, almost all the way, had a tad of XaraX in there, so I guess it qualifies....
The image for those not familiar with Marvel comics Group is a pic I did of the Dark Phoenix from the X-Men comic.
Marvel Girl in her first incarnation, a telekinetic "marvel" in the X-Men. Then she was the giver of life in her second incarnation as the "Phoenix" and then the taker of life as the "Dark Phoenix". Jean Grey is now just Jean Grey again in the comics world, not the Dark Phoenix, Phoenix or Marvel Girl. She's a very interesting character that I love to read about her adventures every month.

Done entirely in Xara X. I may try one in Photoshop to see how well I can do in my "native" software.

The texture reminds me of lava and petrogylphs! Very ancient and mysterious looking, and it just radiates volcanic heat!!! Cool/Hot [img]/infopop/emoticons/icon_biggrin.gif[/img] !!!

::edit:: oops, guess I havent figured out the correct way to attach an image [img]/infopop/emoticons/icon_redface.gif[/img]
::edit 2:: Well I tried to edit my post , but cant see an option for making the image appear in the thread as opposed to just being a downloadble attachment ? Humble apologies to the regulars. If a mod can/wants to do the honours, please feel free [img]/infopop/emoticons/icon_smile.gif[/img]
