The September 1 Tutorial
The September 1 Xara Xone
A tasty 33-step tutorial. You could probably do this tutorial with Xara X if you wanted. Some experience recommended but new users should be able to get through without too much difficulty.

As usual, please comment so I don't have to whine publicly. It's so pathetic when I do that.
Fun tutorial Gary, I think that it's great that it is something that even someone new to Xara could easily follow.
I much prefer the fries at A&W so I went off the tutorial a bit and struck out on my own. :D I had a nice vector A&W Logo on hand from some ad layouts we did for our local 'Dub' but other than that the rest is all me. I followed the tutorial for the fries, but as the Dub (at least here in Canada) coats their fries with a lightly seasoned coating I added a layer of stained glass fractal plasma transparency to get the added texture.

Very nice tutorial and image Gary. Love the subtile deep of view effect you´ve applied to the potatoes. It really adds deep to the image. The box is outstanding and the background color keeps the image warm and inviting. The texture detail in the ketchup is a very nice touch. Add a burger and i´m in!
The shadow of the box over the potatoes could be improved a little tough. It´s a little flat.
Nice work too Frances!
The cheese burger was done for a 2002 Xara Xone tutorial.
