Stop me if I'm beginning to sound like a Veg-O-Matic salesperson, but here are two non-animated 3D images produced with Xara 3D 2. The big news here is Text Textures! You can add bitmap textures to any text or symbol font.

If I might be critical for just a moment, of the bitmap images included with Xara 3D 2, there are about six that are tres cool. The rest are not so tres cool (if you take my meaning). However, you can use any JPEG, BMP, Gif or PNG image for texture fills. A photo of yourself or your pet pooch, or the wife, the kids, the girlfriend, the car, the house, you get the idea. Or, you can use any of the cool images that you get with Xara 1.5 or Xara 2 for Text or background texture. The wood grain IS included with Xara 3D 2. CorelDRAW Tiles work swell too, you just need to convert them to one of the above formats.
