Xara - Programme Icons

**Rik** · 26 May 2017, 01:06 PM

After Ron Duke's question in another thread, I wondered what the current Xara icons are for all the programmes?!
I only use Designer Pro, and therefore that's the only one I normally see.

From what I could find, I believe these are the current ones.
Unless you know different. And if you do, then please let me know in this thread.

So, I though I would have a go at drawing all of them.

Looks awesome to me, Rik.

If you can do it, more power to you!

It also points up the lack of consistency. And now the new purple and blue logos (blue is Web Designer).

The lack of consistency is what caught my attention as well.

So, I'd been thinking of what should replace the Designer Pro icon.
Because that's the one that looks very different to all the others.
Designer Pro is a letter, and the others are images.

So, I'd been working to see what might work?
This is what I came up with.
What do you think?

Feel free to come up with your designs.

Should this be a challenge Rik?

That's a fine idea, Gary.

But, are the other icons correct, in my first post?

These are the icons du jour for Designer Pro X and Web Designer Premium

Thanks, Gary.

Just double checking.

Are we agreed that these are the current icons for the different Xara programmes?

Are the icons available on Xara's website anywhere?

I have moved this to Challenges and the Challenge is NOW OPEN.
