Nice one Gary.

There'll be users everywhere wanting to upgrade/buy version 7.

The introductory upgrade price for owners of Xara 3D 6 is $19.99 USD. I did not notice how long the introductory price will be valid.

Just click on the 3 Ds icon.

I changed the g on my home page to a 3D one http://www.gwpriester.com/ Kinda cool.

Yeah, but you cocked up your mouseovers, LOL

And...

Since the page is centered in the browser, the small diamond centers the content which would otherwise be off center.

Sometimes I am too clever for my own good.

The mouseovers had the g cut out in the center and so were letting the 3D g show through. I think I have solved the problem.

Gary, just had a look and downloaded a trial. Thanks for the very informative tutorial and first look.

Thanks for the extensive tutorial, Gary. Very informative. The 'g' on your website looks great.

I noticed though that there is still a shift in the text when I mouseover the 'Ilustration' and '3D Stereogram' buttons. I noticed that these mouseovers are linked to .jpegs and not to .pngs as the other ones. So, the .jpegs contain parts of the text and they don't allign completely with the original text.
