    Like 'em both, it's difficult to choose! I think the contrast of the gel text is my favorite. :-)
    P.S. The old threads on the "hair contest" had me laughing so hard I've got a stomach ache!!! That must be one of the best, certainly most fun, threads done :-)

    In Los Angeles, there used to be a stationery store called Witsons, that used as their logo the upside down version of your paper clip M.

    Did you do the clips with a brush?

    Wooden Gel, thanks, Ross! Like that very much.

    What about wood and resin / rosin (had to look that up in a dictionary)?

    Or what about amber and insects you sometimes find in amber, maybe, placed on a piece of wood?

    for drawing wire has just been posted in the main Xara Forum. You can find the thread here. It shows the simple technique I used in the images above. Go on and get wired!
