I suspect there are a fair few of those of us who adopted Xara Xtreme as their weapon of choice are just biding their time for the eagerly-awaited Affinity for Windows to be released before jumping ship.
It all seems a big shame. The community here has been great over the years, but there are now precious few stalwarts from the heady days of the early 2000s.
The Xara Xone thread has pretty much withered and died and I suspect that many people are mourning its passing. Are you still out there, Gare?
Not many posts from those of us who used to contribute regularly. The fun seems to have gone now. Vector graphics do not seem to interest many people any more.
But, it was fun while it lasted.

Yes it us sad, I also have noticed that most post seem to be web designer related which has not much interest to me.
I have had a change of heart lately and eagerly await the release of V12. When that might be who knows.
I wish I knew what to do about the decline in participation, but, I don't.
For a long time I have wanted to do a tutorial on perspective, at least how I did it. Every thing from choosing the center of interest to spacing. The last time I gave an example it was not well received though, I guess because the example I did was to show how a 1-point worked even though that particular example would have been more effective as a 2-point.

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