Here is another Public Domain Christmas Carol, The Sussex Carol. I did the performing and the producing, all synths, samplers, and A Digital Audio Workstation (DAW) on my PC.



Enjoy to the World!

I will get back to adding the ornaments tomorrow, promise. Maya and everone else were too generous!

Here's what we look like now:

I didn't want to put the teddy bear and the cat-in-the-box on the tree, so I thought they'd make nice presents under the tree.

By the way: Smudge is our long-hair calico cat, who likes to eat plastic and tries to fit in boxes half her size. I sent the photo to Maya as a goof, but darn if she didn't illustrate (in Xara) the essence of our little pussy cat:

Can I get a guest tutorial out of your next year, Maya?

Just incredible spirit and beautiful illustrations, all of you! My goal is to get our finished tree into the Outsider in January. How hard can that be? I have Nova's email!

A wonder, truly a wonder to behold...all of us working toward a common goal.

Thrilled,

Gary

Egg? I have a present for you. A new avatar:

Meant to be "light", not offensive in the least. I know 3D stuff can be a little hyper-real, and thus hyper-ugly, but this just came to me, and I asked around before daring to post it. Members thought you might like it.

Feel free to recolor Smudge's box or resize it. The ribbon is a separate group that can be removed also. I couldn't make up my mind about coloring the back box flap behind the cat red or leave it tan...when the image is small I liked it left tan overhanging Smudge in the box, BUT it could have been colored red supposing that set of inside flaps could have been colored or left uncolored..... ...but you can ungroup it and recolor any way you prefer.

I love everyone's decorations!!! At the rate we're going that tree is going to be so loaded down it may be leaning over!

Here's some xmas lights. I left off the cord which strings between them as I thought then they can be arranged anywhere on the tree (and I don't like the look of cords all over the branches anyway). The glow is separate so they can be used without it. Resize and reverse/rotate to fit the light source direction.

What a great idea, Maya.
I wonder what Gary will do?!
I can't wait to see.

[Crow Haven]

Well, Rik, even if he doesn't want to use the lights they are there for anyone else to use on something if they want to.

Here's a bow -- I made a red one first then converted it to a green one also. I don't know if it's useful or not, but they are here to use on something if anyone wants a bow for a wreath or whatever.

Some Tinsel.

Here is a gold and crystal snowflake for the tree. I used Eye Candy Chrome for the gold and a bitmap fill for the Crystals. The EC effect is locked so it will display fine if you don't have The eye candy filters.

What a brilliant response to this thread.
Gary's got his work cutout!

Frances: I think Gary said that the images should be 175px in width?!
I think it would help Gary, if we provide the correct size images.
