November 2014 Video Tutorial -- The Importance of Backgrounds!

[Gare]

I'm waiting for an answer for the lead programmer, sorry, Maya!

I believe that I did have to download the new Frameworks and install it because GenoPal needs it.

However, I can say...and this is only my machine...that it worked, the thing obviously installed..and is running just fine.

I would be a rude so-and-so to publish his email here. Try snooping around the site for additional help/information. I'm sorry to be putting this on the member, and if you like, just use my own palettes provided in the Xara document to do the tutorial.

Yeah, GenoPal; is much more fun to integrate with Xara...I'm not the guy who programmed it, though.

Here's a couple more schemes, because that's the best I can do, sorry!

Well, Gare, I downloaded and installed the NETframework new version 4.5 but GenoPal still won't function. I tried the Windows look for a answer thingy and it had none only to send forth my info (I didn't) but it did highlight where it felt the problem was which I copied out here (the starred-out part is my change):

C:\Users\*********\AppData\Local\Temp\WER957B.tmp. WERInternalMetadata.xml
C:\Users\*********\AppData\Local\Temp\WERABE9.tmp. appcompat.txt
C:\Users\*********\AppData\Local\Temp\WERAF44.tmp. mdmp


Thanks for the other colors image! Guess I'll have to just use that.

I've got an emergency request into GenoPal right now.

Please don't let this be a show-stopper, folks. I, and many people I know, use GenoPal quite successfully, and besides, he use of GenoPal is only tangential to the gist of the tutorial this month. It's a perk, not the heart and soul of what I'm trying to teach.

Please don't let this glitch end the tutorial, and if anyone has installed it successfully, pleases post her, okay?

Sorry and thanks,

Gary

Does this help in the least?

Well, I gave it another shot by trying it through compatibility mode and still it won't fully launch -- just says it's stopped working. Another look at the problem details gave this:

Aarrrrgh! This wasn't my day, but here's one using the tute (yes, I know it's pretty plain and a bit distorted). Would have liked to use the GenoPal color picker options...but oh well.

It's moody. I like it. Three thumbs up for your above and beyond the call of doody efforts!

Well I have always sucessfully run Genopal 1.0 without problems but my machine won't run this new version either. I get the same errors Maya does and the program won't run. Luckily I can still use version 1 though I'd love to play around with this new version and see how I can use it with Xara and a couple of other programs I like to use. Also the help video wasn't very helpful I found it hard to follow without audio. Perhaps he should get you to do a video for him

Any how here are a couple of compositions. The first uses your hard edged breakfast images and the second uses a mug of piping hot chocolate that I created. It's mostly vector except for the steam. You might recognize those wisps Gary
