    for you Larry, anything is possible

    on the assumption that ctrl+1/2/3/4 was not allowed, some masking was involved

    Looks great Handrawn, the linear fills gave me pause simply because what I had in mind and the description I gave were different. That said, well done. I like it.

    THe theme was heavy, but nothing said the item had to be heavy, or be the heaviest thing, so I brainstormed off the word and Heavy Bag came up. I thought that would give me a nice angle of attack and so I set forth to create a heavy bag with those little shapes...after some tinkering, this is what I got. It was pretty challenging, I never realized how much I rely on transparencies with gradients so much! lol
    Sorry but I just saw this. I know what you mean. Well done. Like the scribbles it is always fascinating to see the different solutions to a problem.

    Very nice Watcher900. Thank you for joining in. It is so interesting to see which shapes different people use and how they are fit together.

    Egg and Rik. I looked back on these and it is very strange. I cannot see any of the shapes on Egg's screen-grab, and in my master file they still do not look skewed wire-frame or not. Here is what I see in my screen-grab. If Rik fixed the problem we should use his xar.
    I did these in XP&GD365 yet it always defaults to and opens with XP&GD11. No matter what I tried I cannot get it to open with 365.

    Do these looked skewed to you? They do not to me.

    Yes, sorry Larry but they do, you can even see the "error" on your screenshot. I think SKEWED is the wrong word, they are certainly not horizontal.

    Thanks Keith. I wonder why I cannot see the problem on my monitor.

    Agree with Keith. Attached is a zoomed in screen grab of your attachment above. Your rectangle is grey, the purple rectangle above is added by me. Can't you see the 'stagger' on the horizontal and vertical lines?

    Keith, you're correct, it's more a rotate error than a skew.
