[Igor01]

To Igor—

All I did was to drive the delivery truck.

The valuable items inside the truck are all your efforts!

A pleasure to be your driver,

Gary

I love drivers
who know safely drives delivery truck so items inside are not broken
but spread around the world

I made a sunburst/sunflower using your method, Igor. I love your designs! These are fun to do!

Little help here guys, I've started to draw the first design in this months giveaway, everything ok until the last stage, call me Mr.Thicky but can't figure out whats going on. The image shows the two final stages I've reached.

As far as I can tell, Stygg, there's a mistake verey early on in the process. Were I to do this, and I can't say I've tried Igor's wonderful steps, I'd to a Blend of the two orbs, on small and one large, and then blend them along an arc, The I'd set the centre rotation point at one end, and keep dropping a copy intil you have the spiral. Limiting the angle constraint to something like 12 degrees under General Options might help.

See the crappy advice you get when Igor isn't on call?

Hi, Stygg

You are true - they are not the same.

Try this:
1 at first make group from all circles
2. duplicate this group
3. scaling second group cca 95%
4. make transparency 40-50%
5. rotate second group 5 degrees
6. alignment centrally

Small note:
first - large images on pages are not identical to the last one
It's demonstration - how to make modification

Thanks for your quick replies Gary and Igor, much appreciated.

Finally got there after Igor's reply. I settled for this image I made, brings to mind peacock feathers, but you can alter it many times with duplicated shapes and transparencies. Bit difficult to explain so I've posted the .xar file as well. I like that image in #12 Maya

I like how your circles design turned out Stygg!
Glad you liked my sunblast flower... I've been trying all sorts of stuff! Here's one with some stars and it just kept morphing.

Maya—I just looked at your image while peering through a kaleidoscope and taking some pain medication.

I do believe, just for a moment, I experienced the birth of the Universe.

It was better than Star Wars.
