I'd like to see what you've done. http://geocities.com/eugenetswong/ProtestRibbon.png http://geocities.com/eugenetswong/ProtestRibbon.sxd.doc It's not really in a .doc file format, but I had to rename it because GeoCities doesn't allow for OO.o format. So, download the OO.o file, rename it by removing, ".doc", and then open as usual. > Thanks! You're welcome. I hope that you like them. Anybody can download and use them. I've already signed that Sun license for submitting code to OO.o, so you can add it to the gallery if you wish, without asking. I'm not saying that it is good enough for the gallery. I'm just saying, don't waste your time asking. Just do it. :^) Regarding these instructions below, I'm beginning to think that a faster way would be to: 1) make a right side of the ribbon using 2 circles 2) convert to a Bezier curve 3) adjust ribbon to correct shape 4) cut and paste 5) flip top image that was newly pasted 6) move them to appear to be connected and overlap 7) group them 8) convert to bitmap -- Sincerely, and with thanks, Eugene T.S.
