    Please see the attached .xar file for the shapes and rules.

    Never give up. You will never fail, but you may find a lot of ways that don't work.

    There's only one BAT.

    I've also shown how I made The Bat Symbol.

    OK this is totally cheating except I used a bat as the floating and hidden image. BUT everything except creating the stereogram part was done in Xara.

    Your work is great, Gary, and your stereogram, as usual, is visually exciting.

    But I think Larry wanted the challenge to use only the shapes in the file he offers for download:


    *****and the server is now not allowing me to post an image! ********



    I know you used Xara, however, does your work reflect the challenge of limited shapes?

    I'm not trying to be a jerk or bust your chops, Gary.

    Sincererly,

    To follow on from OG's post:
    The challenge is to use the shapes provided in the attached .xar file. And be guided by the rules (also in the attached .xar file).
    Then to demonstrate the challenge word. Which, this time is BAT.
