My oh my! There's always something happening at TG! A brief glance at the forum and there it was, a thread for your birthday! Am I ever glad I didn't miss it!

Gary, thanks, for all the wonderful tutorials and help that you so freely pass on to all those in need! It was your tutorials that turned me on to Xara X, Xtreme, Xara3D, etc.--the whole Xara family! I dutifully downloaded them all using my dialup modem--took forever. I studied them and did them and got lost in them and did'm again. Your work and patient instruction gave me the basis for what I know today about Xtreme. Thanks a million! I continually use them for reference and to help me out whenever I get stuck. And if it's not in the tutorials, workbooks or a TG thread you're always ready to personally send your advice and counsel. Thanks!

I have just one dumb question to ask if I may on this day of all days that honors your birthday. What, on God's green earth is "The Trompe L'œil Room"? I never could figure that one out
