    Food photos... As someone else suggested, this can be a major photo session. Some of those ads you see in glossy magazines have been tweaked to the nth degree. Lighting is critical, background can be worked in Photoshop. The food is often sprayed not only with water but also cooking oil ( or...

    HI. Welcome. 1st tip is to learn Adobe Illustrator, Adobe Photoshop and Corel Draw.. then come back in about 3 years. Kidding, kinda..but the design software is what will allow you to do these wraps. Wraps are printed..do you have a solvent- based printer? You can always out-source the...

  15. Scarecrow vector art or clipart

    Scarecrow final... I was able to take a digi-photo today of the image in question. Cleaned it up in Corel Trace in about 15 minutes. I now have a cuttable file. Easy. Lesson learned: Business card sized clipart is a PITA. Get better images or warn client about re-draw costs. Thanks to all.. Ken

  17. Has anybody had this problem?

    Not under those particular circumstances, but the shadows in Corel are a bit peculiar. For instance, they will not print when I send a jpeg or tiff to my desktop printer,,same with outlines. Yet when I send the image to my sp300 thru colorip ,all is well. You should export to a .tiff file (or...
