Covered in this month's Workbook:

In the February Xara Xone: After a month off, the Xara Xone is back with a clean minimalist white design. Do you like it? It's quite a change from last year's flamboyant design. The February Xara Xtreme tutorial creates a 3D Stereogram image by simply adjusting the spacing of photographic objects (simply may be an understatement, but it is all done in Xtreme). Xhris, who is the undisputed Brushmeister General, explores the custom brush stroke process in a very in depth Guest Tutorial we are calling The Ultimate Brush Tutorial. Ross Macintosh is back as the February Featured Artist. Ross uses Xara along with a product called Sketch Up to create some incredible images. Check it out. If you would like to be considered for a single or one of the upcoming group shows, e-mail me and let me know where I can see a few of your images.

I am accepting your contributions (Tips, Brushes, Templates, stuff like that). I'm starting to run out of ideas and could use your input. If your site has Xara graphics and is not listed, send me your link and a brief description of how you have used Xara on your site.

A Word from Our Sponsor:

Xara makes several graphics products and all of them are fun and easy to use. And Xara makes this site possible so it would be nice if you just went to these pages and had a look see. Thanks.
