Ok, since installing the cd, this is my first picture (eheh seeing as I lost all my previous trial pictures due to my error). But I wanted to note this is my very first go at a 'human' picture.

ahh yes the shift click range worked. That example that suggests to click the 'eye' or the 'arrow' was tricky as all the checkboxes have to be empty to start with, for that to work. The shift click...

Is there a way to shut off all layers visibility / workability at once without going through and unchecking all the checkboxes? If not, this would be a handy addition. If so, can you please tell me...

Well, well, well....The postman musta heard me cuz I did receive it today!! :) Haven't had the chance to install, play around with as the family has kept me busy, but it should quiet down here in a...

Haven't received in North Carolina yet either. Am hoping it will pop up in my mailbox tomorrow as it was meant to be a birthday gift from my wife to me and 27 Dec just happens to be that day...

I was messing around trying to do an ornament I have seen in the movie "The Polar Express", and ran into a question: How do you get highlights (dark or light) to seem as though they are highlights...

Welcome aboard Drifter. You have now entered the Xara Zone (errr Xara Xone to be politically correct, lol) ***cue Twilight Zone music***. I to am one of the newer user here and said pretty much the...

ahh, I see!! I will give it more of a go once the holidays are past, well at least x-mas when the kids get their gifts and leave me to play with mine :P lol!!

Thank you all so much for the help,...

I drew this copying it by eye from a picture. But am not sure how to proceed with it color-wise as alot of the shapes are broken. Sketch is pretty cool though. First draft copying I have done in...

ummm, Gary? *chuckling politely* Are you trying to tell me these tut's are sorta way outta date? Doh! :P So it's use what is still useable and adapt with whatever the newer version has to offer -...

I am stuck and have come across this in other tutorials. Aside from not having the proper ripple fill (just yet - cd not here yet), I am stuck on this page:...

Ron, I'm right there with ya bud. I can create from a copied picture, always have. Even back in middle school and high school in art class I loved to take a picture and 'blow it up' so to speak. Make...

eheh, actually no plugin was used minus bevelboss (Eyecandy) on the outter edge. It was just lines, one section was created the rest were cut and pasted and swiveled, the hardest part was giving...

Couldn't sleep tonight, mind was a racing so i thought I'd make it even busier and came up with this. Nothin fancy just started pluggin away and before i new it this came about and what do you know,...

ahh much better :) Thank you!

Now that would be a kewl idea Sally. Have all the regulars or all that want to participate make their own personal ornament to go on a Xara-wide Xmas tree.

eheh Sally, my wife would agree with your statement on this picture, but I on the other hand am hoping just for rain *ducks out of the way of the snowball*.. I agree with a4hire, very nice...

Heya Scotty. I know what you mean by addicting.. I love these things as well. Did a good job on this ine, my eye grabbed it right away! :) There are some where I have to really work to get the...

ahhh, i did not know/realize that you could use "editable shape" on the shadow..doh..thanks so much a4hire and Sally (just read your post even though it was before a4hire, 2 hours later eheh) for the...

Aye John, I have watched pretty much all the videos (minus the ones I figure I could do like change colors and such). So you're next suggestion would be to do the workbooks first, then the tutorial?...

eheh oops, I must have not gotten to them tutorials yet *doh*..

Thanks for the back pats :). Shadow-wise - I can differentiate where the shadow 'should' go however getting it to go there is another thing :P LOL.. Like in this picture i would imagine a slight...

any suggestions on how to work the shadow? The shadow tool in Xara is what I used, I even tried the Shadowlab part of EyeCandy 4000 and neither looked right. I tried grouping the whole champagne...

Well I finally completed my first tutorial (Jan 97), kinda skipped a couple :P.. Which I posted in the Xara Gallery :). Other than picking and choosing is there an order to the tutorials? Order as in...

This is very good Sally! Looks like something I would see in the card section of a store :).
