Em, Rik...the Betty Ford Clinic is a rehab place.
Oh, never mind.
Comedian Robin Williams recently said that he checked into Rehab in Wine Country, just to keep his options open.

As we've been doing beer bottle tops, it was a very poor attempt at a joke, Gary.
Re: July 2013 Tips and Tricks: How to Draw a Photorealistic Bottle Cap
Oh, I thought it was funny, Rik, not a poor attempt at all.
Especially if you're the sort of person who belly laughs when someone slips on a banana peel.
(Which I do).
Okay, seriously, alcoholism isn't funny.
And it's particularly not funny if you miss last call at the pub.

Yes I can understand about the hight and width selection size changing, but I'm still curious what the quick-shape size actually refers to.

look at this picture
each star is exactly the same star
but the one on the right is rotated
each rectangle is the same height and width of the star it is on
the rectangle on the right is higher than the one on the left

if you click on a star and its corresponding rectangle the heither and width are the same

Hi All--
The XaraXone is up and operational now on new server hardware. Along with the server change there has also been a DNS change that is working throughout the Internet. If you are not able to see the Xaraxone.com now, you may need to clear your browser cache, or wait a while for the change to reach your part of the world. Also some internet service providers use proxy servers to speed up browsing, especially for dialup and DSL customers, and it may take a bit for those proxy servers to catch up.
The server that XaraXone used to be on was acting up and becoming unreliable, so a move to new server hardware was scheduled for Mon Aug 5th with goal of being a seamless and undetectable transition. Unfortunately the old serve decided to quit after 5pm Friday (UK time) and was not able to be restarted -- so it was on to plan B - do the move Sunday instead of Mon and use a backup instead of a transfer. That appears to have been successful, but we will be testing tomorrow to make sure that nothing got dinged in the process.
If you notice that something is not quite right please PM me with the details.
Many thanks to Dan M at Xara for working on a Sunday night to make this happen as soon as possible.
