Covered in this month's Workbook:

In the October Xara Xone: The October Xara Xtreme tutorial makes recreates the mesmerizing Apple QuickTime GEL logo. New users should be able to get through this one,  though some knowledge of Xara is always helpful. Your Editor (that's me) continues the GEL mania with this month's Guest Tutorial which covers creating a Sparkle GEL Effect and creating a Sparkle GEL Brush. 35 Designers from all over the planet participated in the 2006 Logo Show, which you can see in the Featured Artist Gallery. The logo designs came from 19 separate countries. Xara truly is an international product! Check it out. If you would like to be considered for a single or part of 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.
