This month we take a look at the long-awaited successor to Xara X. The May Xara X tutorial creates a studio camera lens . Sheffield Abella demonstrates his technique for illustrating eyes in the May Guest Tutorial. The May Featured Artist Gallery features the next of our 4 artist Group Shows. Included in Group Show #3 are: Christine Farrelly, Sheffield Abella, Peter Loader and David Higgins. If you would like to be considered for one of the 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.

Xara X1 is here!!!

"Our goal is also to ensure that Xara X remains the fastest , highest graphics quality, easiest to use, best value drawing and illustration software there is. Period."
—Charles Moir

It's been a long time coming, but Xara X1 is finally here. It's more than an update although Xara Ltd. went down the list of bugs compiled in the Xara X Conference and just about every one has been addressed. There are some nifty new features as well including the XPE, The Xara Picture Editor. Also supported now is CMYK TIFF export and the ability to export layers as a PNG file to edit in Photoshop. I'll cover these features and some others in this issue.

See Page 1 for a complete list of new and improved features.
