I developed the attached pic completely with XARA X. No bitmap application had been involved. OK, lots of layers, transparencies, one sliced bitmap (a duplicate of the surfer) and only one single bitmap copy for the cutout text effect.
Surfer, pebbles, desk texture are bitmaps, the rest is vector.
Completed in just a few hours, compared to the version I have done 2 years ago for an ISP in Denmark with a bitmap application - I needed a week and got less effects.
Are you shure you are still in need for PhotoSoap?
Have fun!
