    Being given away for free until late November! Windows only i believe, sorry.
    Get it while it's free!It is normally 89 USD.The free download is only available until November 24, 2011.
    This is version 5 click here to get it (version 7 is the latest) so it may not contain all the goodies 6 or 7 does.But it's packed at 350+ mb download! :)

    They sent me an email telling me my friends could get it free as they are celebrating PC Worlds announcement that Xara is the Photo Shop Killer.I have version 6 and it rocks.I am not sure if this version comes with 3-D extrusion, but i am downloading my own copy to check it out.Why not download it and put it on disc for your Windows platform, if you use it.

    Quoted from the page, "Photo & Graphic Designer 5 can be used free for 7 days. Register after 7 days and you will be able use the product unlimited for free."

    Important - after you register it, make sure to reboot.That makes the registration key set.

    Nice :eek: Let's see what this baby is capable of ;)
    I bet 98% of the stuff can be done in Gimp, right?

    Just download it and throw it on disc Maffe.
    Make sure you get it registered then uninstall it and place the install file on your disc.Save the registration key.
    Next time you have a new machine or more drive space...install that puppy, and check for free updates! :)

    Sweet!
    You won't be sorry.Xara is hands down THE fastest render engine out there.
    Your going to love the program. :)

    By the way Linux has a version out also.
