I was able to draw that magic wand and the gear and the glowy tail thing (now all blured up) within a few minutes just because Corel really does make it easy to get the shapes where you want them.**

I forgot to mention - I use Arcsoft PhotoStudio (both 2.0 and 2000) for the bitmap stuff. Version 2.0 doesn't do transparency or layers, but 2000 has some problems that weren't in 2.0. For instance, in 2.0, there was a duplicate option, and the crop command made a copy when it cropped. Now, in 2000, there is no duplicate command, and the crop command crops the bitmap without copying it. Also, you're supposed to be able to add to a mask by holding down shift. In 2.0, this works, but in 2000, when you drag to add a mask, you end up moving the old mask. :(( Those little problems really turn out to be big ones, because I do a lot of masking and cropping. I think I'm going to write to them and mention those problems.

Cool. I hate to criticize your efforts, because I really like what you're doing, so please forgive me. Here goes. I like the window with the gear thingy in it, but I'd lose everything else. Too busy. BTW, for a "code" name, how about "copper", as in "CoPper"? (Unfortunately, it has police connotations). Marc Help! I'm an AI running around in someone's f*cked up universe simulator.

OK, I don't know if this'll fly, but how about that a rainbow background to the gear inside the window (but not the whole window--a rainbow arch only). I'm not particularly fond of the starburst in the upper right corner. Perhaps the rainbow arch could start in the lower left corner of the window, go behind the gear, and extend outside the window in the upper right, concluding either at the halfway point or continuing until it was again on the same horizontal plane as where it started. If you did the latter, and it were big enough, you could sprinkle some little GUI controls around the rainbow too! Erm... what do you think? Is this too much feedback?!?!? Thank you for taking the initiative to even attempt a logo! :-D Marc Help! I'm an AI running around in someone's f*cked up universe simulator.

Also, where do I get good pictures of animals? Webshots has lots of un-copyrighted pictures, but I don't see that the owners would be too pleased to see them used on a logo. Hmmm...Didn't someone just post zoo pictures? What I'd like to see is a lion face or something like that, that I can do an oil painting effect on.

I don't want to stifle innovation, but please, no more new CP2 posts in the forum. I like the enthusiasm, but its not the right time for this yet. Anyway, this is a project specific post that should be discussed by project team members and teams have not been established yet. I don't want to draw attention away from more pressing matters. thanks, I'm sure you understand

Zoner Draw[^] lets you do gradient and bitmap fills, and gradient and bitmap transparency. It lets you start with a rectangle, circle, polygon, or free-hand polygon and edit/add/remove points. Its biggest flaw is that you can't rotate the bitmap fills with the object. They may have fixed that in the newest version, though.
"Blessed are the peacemakers, for they shall be called sons of God." - Jesus
"You must be the change you wish to see in the world." - Mahatma GandhiHello there, neither Zoner Draw 3 (the free version) nor Zoner Draw 4 (the paid version) includes rotation of bitmap fills along with objects. However, both include an image manager that enables simple edits, including of course rotation. Thus one solution could be to find the rotation angle that suits your needs, then rotate the bitmap, and then apply it as a fill. (By the way, if anyone reading this has any questions for me, be sure to contact me by e-mail, not this forum, as I picked it up in the weblogs, not as a regular visitor of this site.)
