Fills For OklaEd

Ed,

I looked through my resource files for the colors I needed. I cropped a long thin section of each image, and made these into bitmap strokes. When applied to a circle in E3, the images wrap. I made bitmap images from the results. I made a drawing in X1, and filled the images into the objects. I made copies of the objects, and added a shaping image that I had drawn in Xara X. Then adjusted the transparency to get a look I liked.

Rich,
Thanks for the explanation. I'm going to have to try this. I downloaded E3 some time back but haven't really had time to play with it. The interface was a little Greek to me, and I don't have much patience. Great fills!

Ed,

For me, the program is difficult to learn. I usually have to study a method for several days. The reason I got to making reflection maps was there was no information on them. Rich
