    It certainly is a great companion plug in to Xara, and I'm glad you are finding filter forge and the videos useful! I am working on a new one

    I've checked the discount coupon, it is still working. Please note the discount is valid for the software only, not for the options like the backup disc and preorder to the next version. The fastest way to address such questions is to contact our support team but I'd be happy to help here if I can.

    Hi Mark,

    They did find a problem in support with how the page was doing the discount. It was fine with the 40% discount but when you put in the code for the 50% discount, the price increased, not decreased. I suspect a program loop was not pointing to the correct exit point in the program and I believe that was solved. The other issue I saw was the advertised price on the mid-sized version was $249 - $100 = $149 but when I got to the form, the starting price was $272.29, not $249. I just noticed the discrepancy and was wondering why. I've also addressed this question to support.

    Thanks for your answers.........

    The 50% discount off $249 will result in $124.50. This is how the order form should look after applying the cHsnrmawFtd coupon:

    Hi Mark,

    That's correct.....I got the explanation this AM from the support team. It has to do with ordering in CDN $.....there is an insurance for fluctuation if ordered in your own currency, thus the discrepency. The way around that of course is to order in US $ then it all works out in the end.

    I just wanted to be sure that everything was 'matching' up from web page to form....I'm one who needs to understand the 'why' of things so hopefully this will also clear things up for others that are wondering why.

    Thanks very much for your quick response....

    Well, I got the gem downloaded, got the right font and this is my first effort with those in place. It didn't quite come out as expected I think because I may have flattened something too much, but I like the diamond....I'll have to work on the text some more. Very good tut Frances and I will try it again to get a better result. Just to give you an idea of where I am, you will see my file attached.....Also I noticed in the tutorial your pixel sizes were about 100 more than mine. Is there a setting somewhere to adjust that? It's early on in the tutorial.....tx
