Yeah, I know but interestingly when I try to do that in this case, I do not get the "+" sign. I am not pressing F4 however so that may be it. I will try it in a bit. Thanks!

sure, here is the letter (nodes not connected so you see what I mean. Let me know what you guys think.

Here is a question for everyone. I have been working on a book cover for a client and was asked to modify a capital letter in the chosen font. The letter "S" had a curly q at the top that needed to...

bummer! client did not like the cherry blossoms. All the talk about her logo and she dislikes the part I liked. She wants a lotus flower. Back to the drawing board. :/

Thanks Wizard. I appreciate that.

let's see I already posted a banner I have been working on and I was helped by quite a few people (thanks everyone) but I will post it here again. Even though not Xara (Ok, I plan on using it as a...

Yeah, I do like that much better but I cant change the font since its part of her logo. I made the artwork on the banner but the logo is the clients so I will see if she will allow me to change her...

it may but really the logo cant be changed more than I have since it is the clients logo. I wonder if I should tell her that O just does not work. :)

Hi Angelize. Yeah, the dragon and crest along with its position to the rest of the text is really part of the logo so I dont think I can change that. I have taken some liberties as is so not sure I...

Good idea Kara..I moved the O back a bit and it does help.

OK, here is my revision and I think this is what I am going to present. I have added a rice paper overlay and made the colors a bit richer so it is more inline with the oriental art feel I am going...

That's an idea Karateed. I think i will also see if she minds the removal of the shadow...I really dont like that myself Tim. This has given me food for thought. Thanks again everyone.

Thanks guys. Hmmm, not sure what to do about the "O". That is the client's logo and she wants it in the banner. I designed everything else but the logo so I'm kind of stuck with it.

I am working on a banner set and am working on the concept. I am fairly happy with this one but would like some other eyes to take a look as well. Honest opinions please. Thanks. :)

Thanks guys. The opacity mask worked great. Not sure I understand your method handrawn. I will play with it a bit. Thanks again.

I have been trying how to figure out how to make the center if an object transparent with color gradually appearing on the borders. The transarency tool insists on starting with a solid color in the...

always great work from these guys. Congrats!!!!

good question...not really sure. I was asked to draw this for someone but they never gave me a caption. :)

Quick B&W cartoon I did using xara. I am in need of a lot of practice to impove my cartoon skills but I had fun with this.

The final product

Working on a cover for a local small paper/dice game publisher. I have alot of work to do (the flying disks are really just place holders) but this is what I have so far.

Thanks guys...that help very much. Here is my verson. Next step is to work on the ships (currently big dumbells). :)
