    I like that Rik and I did workout where the shapes were, eventually but I love that sky, that's one for my various sky fills folder.

    Thanks for posting the wireframe Rik. Excellent work. I wasn't criticizing by the way, just couldn't see the shapes.

    Now just to play CHALLENGE police, as we did with the word challenge that you started ...

    Larry's original challenge said "Using 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." however, that instruction did not make it to the XAR used for the challenge.

    Would you care to comment Larry!

    Thank you Handrawn, Egg, and Rik. Looks good.

    You guys, and canova are pushing the envelope, that's what I like.

    [QUOTE=ss-kalm;557012]"#FF0000"] or use transparencies[/COLOR][/B].

    That's what I recalled having written. I didn't think transparencies were allowed, even though I very much like what Rik did, I was going to say that very thing but when I looked back I didn't happen to see that statement so thought I remembered wrong.

    Takes a bit of the fun away, BUT, I'm happy to play along, Keith and Larry.

    No transparency in this one.

    Let me know if 'feathering' is allowed, or not?

    OK Rik and everyone I think we can allow feathering and fills.
    My original intention was just to use the flat shapes and only change the color. However I do like the way you guys are pushing the envelope.
    Kudos to you Rik.
