Pledge 3 - seems quite a shrewd move
I've not been following the conversations on the Affinity forums (life's too short), but I LOL when I saw the picture of three coffins!
Although I was vaguely familiar with the company name Canva, I didn't know much about what they did or produced - quite a lot as it turns out.
I think this will an interesting acquisition...
Thanks for those links Acorn, I'll take a good look.
For the past few years I've been using mind maps (SimpleMind) to keep track of text notes, ideas, links and other bits and pieces, but it's...
@Acorn Obsidian sounds interesting. Before downloading and trying it, are there any examples of where it's being used, you can point me to? I don't have a specific need right now, but there might be...
Just to expand on haakoo's suggestion, alongside a combination of memory, consistent file and folder naming, I also use XnView MP to visually search .xar thumbnails.
Two features I find really...
@Egg - that's excellent.
Thanks for sharing this image. Very ingenious. It looks like she's used the same design idea with great effect using other word combinations as well.
I remember there was a Star Wars / Stop Wars...
Probably had one too many Bodkas - Yes, there really is a local vodka called that!
Maybe a river Banksy! :D
Here's a super quick, to keep on topic!

@Ernie, Nice graphics.
Yes it was done in Affinity Designer on a Mac. I switched over a few years ago, but my heart still belongs to Xara. I think it's a first love sort of thing! There are still...
LOL - very good - thanks all :-)
As you all no doubt realised the design was 'borrowed' from an early style Penguin paperback from the days before they used imagery on their covers.
I expect...
Ernie, excellent illustration and presentation.
Bird beak!

I also keeping looking for some official news about the (legendary/mythological?) perpetual license.
Re Tumbleweed:
According to the Xara website last year 52,469 businesses transformed their...
I guess this one depends if you're familiar with the rock band Muse's album cover from 2001. I saw them at Wembley once - great gig, worst fish & chips ever!

Yes, inside pockets! :D
It's been pretty quiet for me since Christmas. I had the flu which was horrible and wiped me out for a while. Anyway as usual I've got plenty of ideas and projects...
@Rik, thanks :D
@egg, haha, love it. :D
Excellent scribbles.

Over the years a lot of effort has been made by forum members to feedback graphic design, workflow, general improvements and wish-list ideas to Xara, much of which has remained unacknowledged and...
I with @handrawn on this one, and can also sincerely endorse Wacom tablets.
I am lucky to use a Wacom Cintiq 16 and a basic intuos (medium) tablet, which I also use as a mouse replacement. A...
Funny that, I've been watching a bit of Monty Python recently. I find it fascinating rather than funny. It's almost like I'm trying to work out why it's still so popular. I think for me it's the...
Wow PSP, I've not heard that program name in years. It used to be a favourite giveaway with computer magazines.
I've now gone down the Affinity route but tbh don't actually use Affinity Photo that...
Thanks Rik
handrawn, Thanks, and I love the scroll pen. Mind you, I've never used one!
Here's an 'X' bird ;)

I was intrigued enough to fire up my old PC and have a quick look. My thinking was that if it worked ok, I would install a copy of Scribus on the Mac to access my archive old Xara files.
From my...
Happy New Year to Rik and all fellow forum scribblers.
