    Default Use these shapes to illustrate a word

    Attachment 112838Using the any or all of these simple shapes alone, in combination, or, use the same shape as many times as you wish.
    The size, color, and value may be changed well as rotating whatever you need to do to do.
    You may not change the shape or use transparencies, but, you may use clipview on the final composition.

    NOTE: I will not give impossible words that cannot be illustrated such as antidisestablishmentarianism.

    Each week I will submit a different word.

    Good luck. We'll see how this goes.

    The word for this month is HEAVY

    Larry, are you aware all the shapes apart from the elipses are skewed. Is this deliberate?

    no, they look cordid a rect to me. Skewed or not you did a great job.

    @ Acorn that's really cool. Great job.

    They are well skewed to me. Can't you see it in wire view?

    Sorry, Larry.
    The shapes are definitely skewed.

    So, I've straightened them up.
    Hope you don't mind.
